Our Wedding

365 Days Later, They Still Say Yes.

They got married in small town South Dakota on 11.21.20. After traveling the country together and learning how to live separately for their jobs, they have grown stronger despite the obstacles. Quinn &amp; Hannah are two very different people that found love within each other. He's a roughneck &amp; she's a registered nurse. He grew up Navy &amp; she grew up Air Force. She loved to explore while he loved to remain in the comfort of his home. She loves the idea of moving after a year while he hopes he can settle for the ranch life. He loves his beer &amp; she loves her whiskey. He likes football &amp; she likes boxing. She likes to make sure everything is organized while he likes to play things by ear. She eats at Panera Bread while he eats at Whataburger. She does worry about the world while he worries about her worrying. She wears Birkenstocks and he wears Crocs (which she dreads it when he does). Despite of bad shoes and height differences, they found no one else but themselves to create a lifetime of smiles and open arms only for each other. “Take advantage of it now, while you are young, and suffer all you can, because these things don't last your whole life.”-Gabriel García Márquez,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.goodreads.com/work/quotes/3285349" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Love in the Time of Cholera</a>

1.  Are kids welcome?

We love children! However, please remember that we are not responsible for your kiddos so make sure to supervise them at all times. This event is more driven to more adults so take this into a great consideration.

2.  Can I bring a plus one?

So here's the deal. If you're married or engaged, yes. But if you're dating or casually seeing each other, no. Why? That is just something that we have decided to implement and we do want to keep this event with people that we really know and love. There will be a list of guests prior to entering to continue to monitor the names and number of people.

3.  When should I RSVP?

August 31st. If you have issues with the RSVP site of this page, please text one of us. If you don't see your name, don't see your spouse's/fiancé's name, kid's name, let us know. We'll get it squared away, stat.

4.  Is there alcohol?

Heck yes there is. We want to get somewhat lit this time. There are exceptions to the alcohol but we'll get more details about that later though.

5.  Is the ceremony religious?

It is. Having a faith based ceremony is extremely important for the both of us.

6.  Is there a dress code?

There's some questionable things that people would wear so we have to basically specify. Common sense is required. We had someone attend our first wedding in sweats and a hoodie- don't be that guy. During the ceremony, Hannah's family will wear traditional attire. Men will wear the barong and the women have the option of wearing the traje de mestiza. During this season, it is possible for it to be cold so please consider the weather as well.&nbsp; You have a specific cultural attire, you are more than welcome to wear that!&nbsp; If you're still unsure what to wear, let either of us know &#128578;.

7.  Gifts?

Okay, so we're cool with that fact that you came to our wedding and that's pretty much enough. But if you were to give us gifts, we don't need actual "stuff" and we would be cool with cash/check or gift cards.

8.  Why Tennessee?

Simple answer, we like Tennessee.&nbsp;This state is in the center where many of our family members live in the surrounding states.&nbsp;We didn't want a beach wedding.&nbsp;We didn't want an over the top wedding either.&nbsp;We didn't want traditional wedding.&nbsp;We found Tennessee the perfect place to celebrate our one year anniversary.

9.  Why do you have security?

It is mandatory by the venue to have security. Due to the availability of alcohol, some of you guys might have too much of a good thing and it shows. If someone gets plastered and get out of hand, they will be escorted out by security. Don't be that person.

10.  How long is the wedding?

We would like the wedding to be as long as possible. It will start at 1PM and the latest will be until 6/7PM. Yes, we know it's long wedding.

11.  Can I bring my pet?

You sure can. The venue allows animals which is monumental for us. However, just like parents who have kids, you are responsible cleaning up after your pet and the well-being of your beloved fur baby. If your animal doesn't do well with too many people or others pets around, it might be best to just leave them at home.

12.  Where can I stay?

If you looked under the travel tab, there are some hotels offered. If you want lodging that is closer to the venue, the site does offer that option. Please look at the link below. https://howefarmstn.com/wedding-venues-with-lodging/

13.  What's the theme?

The colors are: Ivory, black and burgundy. In Filipino culture, it embodies several cultures that we share with Hispanics, Pacific Islanders and the indigenous tribes of the country. We do want to share and show this to our guests. That being said, the theme will exhibit more of an old-Spanish colonial style with some Frida Kahlo inspirations to it. The venue does enhance that even more. It is still currently under construction but it will be completed by September 2021. If you would like to look at their venues search their Instagram under Howe Farms or website.

14.  What about COVID/Delta Variant?

We are not requiring anyone to wear a mask or even ask if you got vaccinated. It's not our business or place to say. If you want to wear a mask, you're more than welcome to. If you're not feeling well, you can take meds and make the best out of it but we totally get it if you're straight up not having a good time and praying to the porcelain god. But we think it's pretty obvious to practice good hygiene regardless pandemic or not. Take responsibility on your health and be mindful of yourself and others :)
