How to RSPVP & When should I RSVP by?
You can either go straight from our homepage by clicking on the RSVP button or go to the RSVP tab. Once there, you enter your name and select 'Find Your Invitation.' You will then 'Accept' or 'Decline' the invitation for yourself and anyone in your party that is included on your invitation. There will be TWO parts to accept; one for ceremony and one for reception. Hey, we know it's on a Friday and you might not be able to make the ceremony. (even though we wish for all to attend the beautiful and fun ceremony of course!)
Select 'Continue.
Lastly, you can select to have an RSVP confirmation sent to you via text or email. You don't have to click the box and add your information in if you don't want a confirmation, but please kindly HIT 'SEND RSVP' or the RSVP WON'T be sent to the bride and groom. This will mess up our guest count and seating chart.
For those who have older parents who do not have access to internet please feel free to start another RSVP and type in their name for them and RSVP for them (MUCH appreciated!)
The sooner the better due to having a seating chart. Seriously, do RSVP by July 1st, 2024
Can I bring a Guest?
Your answer will be answered on the RSVP section. This number must be kept due to limitability on seats in venue.
Can I bring my baby/babies/kid/kids?
The answer is simple. No.
The budget and seating chart with limited seating is a big factor. We're there to show our love and commitment to one another with your presence and with that comes celebration! I know that you know we can really celebrate so kids don't need to be around all that. So find that sitter and enjoy yourselves... you deserve it too!
Where's the wedding registry at??
We've both been blown away by the response and excitement our loved ones have shown when sharing news of our wedding! Your presence is the greatest gift we could ask for, however for those who have requested to give a gift, a contribution towards upgrading our home would be truly appreciated by us both. We've decided not to honeymoon, but rather use the funds towards updates to the house and creating more meaningful memories at our place. If giving money isn't your style, we are registered on Amazon.com and target.com .
There are plenty of options to choose from... Mandy might of went overboard. lol
Amazon: www.amazon.com/wedding/share/SmittentobeaSmith081624
Target:
www.target.com/giregistry/gift/smittentobeasmith081624
copy and paste the web address or just go to amazon and find a wedding registry by Matthew or Mandy's name . Look for the date August 16th, 24 and location is Toledo, OH
What should you wear?
The dress code will be simple... We suggest that men wear a lightweight button up with their slacks and short sleeves okay. For the ladies, a summery cocktail dress would be recommended. We understand it's August and are being mindful of the heat!
What time should you arrive?
Before 3pm outside music will be playing. Our Ceremony starts just after 3pm. Don't be running to your seat or you'll get a picture taken and be put up on the wall of shame.
Unplugged Ceremony?
I know it's a new thing people want, but we're here for all the paparazzi and fun! Let's just say you might want to get some video or photos of our flower guy!! Your our only videographer.
HOWEVER, when it comes time for Matthew & Mandy to walk back down the aisle after becoming the new Mr & Mrs Smith we want to take a photo of us with you in the background and would like to NOT have phones being shown at this time. After that carry on. ;)
Will there be an open bar?
Of course there will be. That's one reason why this is an ADULT ONLY wedding. Please keep in mind this location is 19 minutes out from Toledo so please drink responsibly or have a sober driver ready for your hot mess later in the evening.
Is there a hotel block ready for booking?
Unfortunately no. So where ever you feel comfortable traveling to and staying is up to you.
