We will have an unplugged ceremony (no phones or cameras). The greatest gift you can give is being fully present when we say, "I do." We plan on having a moment during the ceremony for you to take all the pictures you want. Please wait for that time, which will be announced by our officiant. We have hired a professional photographer and videographer to capture all of the cherished moments of the day. We promise to share our photos as soon as we receive them. After the ceremony, feel free to take as many pictures as you would like!

We love your little ones so much but for this night we have decided to keep our wedding an adult only event. (the only exception to this will be children to immediate family) Invitations will be specific and include names of the children who are invited. We hope you understand and enjoy the night as a date night!

We are so excited to celebrate this day with our nearest and dearest! Both of us come from big families, and we want to have as many loved ones in attendance as possible while also respecting the guest limit of our gorgeous venue. Thank you for not bringing a guest unless otherwise specified on your invitation.
