Can I bring a Guest/Date?

We love that you want to share the party vibes, but we’ve got a guest list tighter than Jake’s jeans on leg day. Due to limited space, we can only accommodate the exact names on your invitation. If you’ve got a plus one, it’ll be crystal clear in your RSVP with the number of seats reserved for you. If it says “1 seat,” that means just you, superstar. No sneaky +1s, mystery dates, or surprise cousins… security (aka Aunt Brenda) will be watching. 😎 Thanks for understanding and helping us keep the celebration smooth and drama-free!

Are kids invited?

As much as we love your tiny humans, this is a grown-up party (with grown-up drinks and grown-up dance moves). Basically… if they’re not tossing petals or carrying rings down the aisle, they’re probably not on the guest list 😉 Thanks for understanding!

How do I RSVP?

Easy! Click that shiny little RSVP tab above and let us know you’re coming before September 4, 2025. It takes like 30 seconds and saves us from decoding your handwriting or wondering if that chicken scratch says “plus one” or “plus wine.” 🍷 We will include a paper RSVP card with the invite if you’re old-school like that but let’s be real… we’re really rooting for the online route. It’s faster, cleaner, and doesn’t require a trip to the mailbox in your pajamas. Do it for us.

What should I do if I cannot make it?

We’ll miss your beautiful face (and your signature dance moves), but life happens we get it! If you can’t make it, please mark “Will NOT Attend” on your RSVP so we don’t save a seat that ends up ghosted. 👻 Already RSVP’d “Yes” but plans changed? Let us know ASAP so we can adjust before we pay for your plate, your cake, and your share of the open bar… and then kindly send you an invoice. (Kidding. Mostly. 😉)

Did my invite get lost in the mail… for the ceremony?

Nope! The ceremony is just a tiny tear-fest with immediate family and a few people who’ve seen us cry before. We saved you from 30 minutes of mushy vows and secondhand emotions. You’re welcome. But don’t worry you’re on the VIP list for the real party: food, booze, and zero tissues required. Let’s be honest, that’s the best part anyway.

What time should I arrive?

If you’re coming to the ceremony, show up 15–30 minutes early. You’ll need time to park, find your seat, and emotionally brace yourself for how hot the bride looks. The bride is the only one allowed to be late. If you pull a mid-vow entrance, don’t worry we’ll pause everything just to stare at you. 😇 Pro tip: don’t hover awkwardly in the back. We promise there’s a seat for you. Fill in the rows like a normal human so our photos don’t look like a middle school assembly. Reception-only? Show up when your invite says, grab a drink, and act like you’ve been here the whole time.

What is the dress code?

Dress to impress, not distress 😘 We’d love for everyone to get a little fancy with us! Think: cocktail attire, but don’t panic we’re not saying you need to rent a tux or wear stilettos in a field (please don’t). Nice jeans are totally okay as long as they’re not the pair you paint the garage in. No holes, no stains, no “I just mowed the lawn” vibes. Basically: dress like you’re showing up to a wedding… because you are!

Are there any colors that should be avoided?

Yes, bestie unless you’re planning to get accidentally tackled by a bridesmaid, steer clear of white, ivory, and cream. Those shades are reserved for the bride and the bride only. We love a fashion moment, but if you show up looking bridal-adjacent, you might find yourself mysteriously cropped out of every photo. 😘

Will there be parking?

Yes, there is parking but it’s limited, so please carpool like responsible party animals. The fewer cars, the better… unless you want to end up stuck in a field and have our neighbor haul you out with his tractor like Jake’s truck last winter. (True story). 🚜💀 And if you’re drinking, don’t be a hero get a DD. We want everyone to get home safely and without a “Guess where I woke up?”

Can I take pictures throughout the ceremony?

We love you. We trust you. But we do not want to see your phone blocking Aunt Carol’s view while we’re saying our vows. We’re having an unplugged ceremony so please silence your phone, put it away, and be fully present. We’ve hired an amazing photographer who’s got it covered (from every angle, with better lighting than your cracked iPhone screen). After the ceremony? Go wild. Snap, selfie, boomerang, TikTok. Just not while we’re crying in public. Deal? 📸❤️

Will there be alcohol?

Our families might keep it classy… but the friend group? Let’s just say… this isn’t their first open bar. So yes the drinks are on us, the hangover is on you. Plan accordingly. We’re still finalizing what we’ll have (surprise!), but there will be drinks beer, wine, and probably something you’ll regret in the morning. If you’re particular about your booze (looking at you, tequila snobs), feel free to pack a cooler and BYOB. The party’s at our house, after all. Please make sure you have a safe ride home so no one ends up explaining to Grandma why they’re barefoot in a field holding a beer and a glow stick. 🍺

Will the wedding be indoors or outdoors?

Yes. The ceremony will be outdoors. So pray for sunshine, pack your allergy meds, and maybe don’t wear stilettos unless you’re trying to aerate the lawn. The reception is a little bit country, a little bit barn dance chic: it’ll be held in our barn with the doors wide open, plus tents and outdoor seating so everyone’s got space to party (or hide from the dance floor). Basically… dress cute, dress comfy, and maybe bring a jacket. Or don’t. Live your truth.
