WHAT IS THE DRESS CODE?

We would LOVE to see our friends and family dressed up for our big day! Formal long dresses and suits are encouraged. Winter time will be chilly, so be sure to bundle up! If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to Julia or Stephen!

WILL CHILDREN BE ALLOWED?

While we love your little ones, our ceremony and reception will be adults-only. We encourage you to use this night as a date night to relax, socialize, and dance! Thank you for understanding!

CAN I BRING A GUEST/DATE?

Due to limited capacity, we can only allow the people named on your invitation to attend, so we ask that you do not bring a guest + we want to keep the wedding as an intimate event with friends and family! If you have any further questions please do not hesitate to reach out!

CAN I TAKE PICTURES DURING THE CEREMONY?

We are having an "unplugged" ceremony. This means we are asking that all phones and devices are put away and on silent/turned off during the ceremony. We have hired a professional photographer and videographer to capture this special day and sacred rite of marriage. After the ceremony is over, please feel free to take as many photos as you want. Tag us and use our wedding hashtag #joiningthejohnsons!

WHAT IF I FORGET TO RSVP?

If you do not RSVP, we will be saddened to miss you at the wedding. We know life can be chaotic and difficult to plan for, and we urge you to RSVP at your earliest convenience. If you are unable to attend, know that your presence will be missed and we will schedule a celebration with you at a later date!

WILL THE RECEPTION BE INDOORS OR OUTDOORS?

The Greystone is a beautiful venue with indoor and outdoor access. Feel free to dance the night away with us on the dance floor or enjoy a night under the stars outside!

WILL THERE BE AN OPEN BAR?

There will be an open bar at the reception. Try one of our signature drinks or one of your classic favorites! Please arrange transportation if you will be drinking alcohol as safety is our priority! We recommend carpooling and using ride-share apps! Cheers!

WHAT KIND OF PARKING CAN WE EXPECT?

There is a small parking lot located by the church along with additional street parking across the street. The reception venue, which is 5 minutes down the road, has abundant parking in their gravel parking lot! Please remember to plan transportation if you will be toasting with the bride & groom! The Greystone graciously allows guests to leave their vehicles overnight in order to prevent drinking and driving!

WHERE CAN WE CONTACT YOU WITH FUTURE QUESTIONS?
