How Does the Shuttle Work?
We are providing a shuttle service from the AC Hotel to the venue at 3:15 PM. This will be the only shuttle departing from the hotel (There is plenty of parking and Uber available if you miss it!) The bus will leave the venue at 8PM for a round trip drop off, coming back to the venue around 9PM for a second round trip. The final trip should be ready to leave the event around 10:15PM (may be closer to 10:30PM at the latest)
What date should I RSVP by?
We ask for an official RSVP decision from all guests one month before our wedding. Please visit the RSVP page online by March 23, 2024.
What are the addresses of the wedding ceremony and reception venues?
The wedding ceremony and reception will take place in the same venue, The House on Barber Mill. The address is 2239 Barber Mill Rd, Clayton, NC 27520.
Will your wedding be indoors or outdoors?
The wedding ceremony will be held outside the front porch of the historic home. The wedding reception will also be on site, under a tent. Both will be on grass, but there will be a dance floor for when the time comes. In case of rain, there are tents that will cover the ceremony, and sides for the reception tent have been reserved.
What is the dress code for your wedding?
Dress code is “Garden Party Attire”. Men are free to go full-tilt with the preppy look. Hats, florals, and pastels are strongly encouraged for women, as are wedge shoes or block heels, as thin heels will sink into the grass. Please try to avoid periwinkle, as the color will be reserved for the wedding party.
What is the easiest way to get to and from your wedding venue(s)?
If staying at the two (in process) blocked hotels in Raleigh, we will be booking transportation of a shuttle. Uber is also available in the area, and there is parking on site for about 50 guests, so please carpool if you can.
Can I leave my vehicle overnight?
Vehicles can be left overnight if you can pick up by 9 am the next morning.
Can we tailgate in the parking lot before the ceremony / reception? Or bring outside food or drink?
Unfortunately no. The venue cannot allow alcohol or outside food and drink to be consumed in the parking lot before the wedding.
Is the venue wheelchair accessible?
Yes! They are wheelchair accessible, although the ceremony and reception will be held on grass, so please keep that in mind.
Have you reserved blocks of rooms at one or more hotels?
We are currently touring and booking hotels in downtown Raleigh, more details to come.
What is the weather like in the area?
The high seasonal norm is 72°F. The seasonal minimum is 56°F. Thus, the mean temperature average in april in North Carolina is 63°F. Sunset should be 8 PM sharp.
How many restrooms are on site?
The venue has three public bathrooms inside the house to use. Two of the restrooms inside the house are also handicap accessible.
Am I allowed to bring a plus one?
Our wedding is strictly RSVP only. We will only be able to accommodate those listed on your invitation. If we have planned to give you a Plus One, it will be clearly stated on the official wedding invitation.
Am I allowed to bring my children?
While we love your little ones, only children that have been clearly listed on official wedding invites are allowed to join the nearly adults-only event. We appreciate you making arrangements ahead of time and leaving the kids at home so you can celebrate with us.
What is the plan for Friday?
We are having a casual welcome drink for everyone at the Hibernian Irish Pub & Restaurant, just a few blocks from the AC Hotel at 7pm Friday April 26. Please Join!
