Q&A

DO I NEED TO RSVP?

To help us with planning, we kindly ask that you RSVP by the date provided on your formal invitation. If you are having trouble RSVPing, please contact the bride or groom. Unfortunately, if we do not receive your RSVP by the deadline noted on the invitation, we will mark you as "not attending". We will miss celebrating with you, but we do need to finalize the guest count for the venue and our vendors. We cannot make any exceptions. We hope you understand!

CAN I BRING A PLUS ONE?

Our wedding is strictly by invitation only. If you have a plus one indicated on your formal invitation, then you are welcome to bring a plus one! Unfortunately, we cannot accommodate other extra guests due to venue capacity.

WHAT IS THE DRESS CODE?

We would love to see our friends and family dressed up for the occasion! For our wedding, we kindly ask that everyone attending is dressed in semi-formal attire. This means no jeans or t-shirts. Additionally, please refrain from wearing colors that are traditionally reserved for the bride.

WILL CHILDREN BE INVITED TO THE WEDDING?

We love your children and we will enjoy having them at the wedding. However, we kindly ask that kids under the age of 13 are gone around 8 pm. This is to allow the adults to enjoy the reception and a night off!

WHAT TIME SHOULD I ARRIVE

We recommend arriving 20-30 minutes before the start of the ceremony to make sure everyone is on time. We kindly ask that if arriving anytime after the ceremony starts, you head to the cocktail hour/reception area to decrease interruptions to the ceremony.

CAN I SMOKE AT THE VENUE?

Our venue requires you to be away from the ceremony an reception site & to pick up cigarette ends after smoking. Please be respectful and do not leave them on the ground or smoke around the ceremony, venue, or any of the picture sites. The parking lot is an ideal spot to step out for a smoke.

AM I ALLOWED TO TAKE PICTURES?

We are having an unplugged ceremony and ask for everyone to please keep their phones tucked away at this time. At the reception, we encourage you to take pictures and post them to the app info at the front of the venue!

IS IT AN OPEN BAR?

**WE WILL NOT TOLERATE DRINKING AND DRIVING** Yes! It will be an open bar! If you are planning on drinking, we encourage you to stay in a hotel listed under "Off-Site Stays." Please drink responsibly.
