Q + A

Is there a dress code for the wedding ceremony and reception?

Since the wedding ceremony and reception take place in an outdoor garden, the dress code is semi-formal or dressy-casual, with an emphasis on colors, patterns, and lighter fabrics suited for outdoor settings. As a courtesy, avoid wearing white, cream, or black dresses. There will be a picnic dinner and yard activities, so dress appropriately for these events.

What date should I RSVP by?

To arrange for the appropriate number of chairs, food, drinks, etc. for our wedding guests, please RSVP by June 6th.

What time should I arrive to the ceremony?

The wedding ceremony begins at 5 pm (17:00), so plan to arrive before 4:45 pm (16:45). You can stroll through the gardens before the ceremony.

What is the timeline for the wedding?

The ceremony begins at 5pm (17:00). The picnic dinner begins around 6pm (18:00). Dancing, dessert, and yard games to follow. The garden closes at sunset, around 8:30/9pm (20:30/21:00).

Can we take photos during the ceremony?

We respectfully request that guests do not take photographs during the ceremony as professional pictures will be taken throughout the day. We invite you to relax, enjoy the moment, and we'll gladly share these images with you after the celebration.
