(9) Are you having an "unplugged" wedding?
Absolutely not! We welcome any photos or videos that you wish to take as we are not hiring a photographer nor a videographer. So we are depending upon our guests to document our special day! We do, however, ask that ALL cell-phones be placed on MUTE for BOTH the Ceremony and during the Dinner hour.
(9) Will you be having a Cash Bar or a Hosted Bar?
We are Hosting the Bar for all of our guests' drinks through the set specific consumption time of 9 p.m. (which includes the cocktail hour, the toasts, and drinks up to an hour after dinner). Therefore a Cash Bar will then be available from 9 p.m. through 11 p.m..

Yes! Credit and debit cards accepted at Prestwick Country Club.
(11) How do I RSVP? Also, when is it requested that I should RSVP by?
The best way to RSVP is by completing and mailing back the RSVP card to us, which is enclosed with the wedding invitation, by the date requested of APRIL 13th. You may also RSVP through this website by APRIL 13th (You can also leave a note of your requested songs here too!)....
Also, you are welcome to be an "overthinker" like Karen and cover all bases by responding BOTH by mail & through this website).
The most important point is that our guests RSVP by APRIL 13th. We both truly hope to see y'all on our special day!
(12) Where can I stay?
Since our wedding is being held at a venue other than a hotel, we were unable to secure a "block" of guests rooms at any of the nearby hotels. So, if you click on the "TRAVEL INFO" tab within our wedding website, we have provided several suggestions for accommodations. However, please take note that our wedding date falls during the week of the MYRTLE BEACH 2024 SPRING BIKE WEEK, the attendance of which is expected to be over 500,000 tourists. Therefore, we highly suggest that you should secure your accommodations ASAP.
(13) Which airport is closest?
The closest and most convenient airport is the Myrtle Beach International Airport. Please click on the "TRAVEL INFO" tab within our wedding website. Within that tab we have provided some additional information regarding this airport that may be helpful.
(14) Are there any local places you’d recommend I visit or do while I’m in town?
Absolutely! We have provided that information in another location within our wedding website. Please click on either the "THINGS TO DO" tab or the "RESTAURANTS & PIZZA!" tabs.
(15) Could you suggest places to eat & drink?
Absolutely! Please click on the "RESTAURANTS & PIZZA!" tab within our wedding website for our suggestions and favorite places.
(16) Are you using a gift registry service?
We really hope that you can join us on our special day, as your being there will make all of our wedding day memories complete in every way! As you might know already, we have been together for more than a year or two. So we don't really need much new as our home and it's contents are quite complete. Yet, if a gift is your intention, we thought that we would mention that we do have a small "wish list" for which we have provided the registry information for on our wedding registry page. Please click on the "REGISTRY" tab within our wedding website for more details. However, should you find that our "wish list" has been fulfilled and you really want to give to celebrate our wedding, we would certainly love some "pennies" to put together to save for something that we will treasure or for a rainy day..... And just remember, what means the most, is that you are with us on our wedding day to raise a toast!
(16) Will you be live streaming your wedding?
We are looking into do this.
(17) Karen, will you be changing your last name?
Yes! I am more than thrilled to say that my full name will be: Mrs. Karen Lynn Krystek.
(18) Do you need help in the run up to the big day?
Yes! I am sure that we will need some extra help. Please contact us and we will let you know when and/or how.
(19) Is there anything else I need to know about?
