Q + A

What date should I RSVP by?

We ask that you RSVP by August 10, so that we can have a final headcount for meals and seating!

Can I take photos at your wedding?

We are asking that our guests DO NOT have their phones out at the ceremony and remain present with us during one of the most important moments of our lives! We will have a team of photographers who will take beautiful photos for us, so you don't have to - and they will be shared once we receive them! During the cocktail hour and reception, take as many photos as you would like!

Can I bring plus one to your wedding?

No, as much as we would love to invite everyone we've ever met (or have not met) to celebrate this day with us, we have reserved the dinner seating for our closest friends and family. Guests we reserve seats for will be specified on the RSVP, so there is no confusion!

Will there be a time gap/ cocktail hour between the ceremony and reception?

Yes! There will be roughly two hours between the ceremony and reception dinner. It takes about 20 minutes to drive from the ceremony to the reception, and we would love to have a cocktail "hour" that allows us to see and greet as many of our lovely guests as possible! Time and location details can be found on the 'Home' page.

Will there be an open bar?

No. We will be having a cash bar, so please bring cash/ card if you'd like to enjoy drinks throughout the evening!

Where should I park at the St. James Hotel and how do I get to the cocktail hour/ reception?

There is a parking garage attached behind the hotel with the entrance located on Bush St. It is available (and free!) for all guests! You can either enter the hotel from the parking garage or walk around to the front of the building. From there, get into any hotel elevator and press floor 5! The staff at the hotel are very kind, so if you feel lost (which you shouldn't), just ask where to go! We will have signs as well letting you know where the party will be.

What time will your wedding reception end?

Our plan is for a soft close around midnight, as we have the venue booked until 1am!
