Use the RSVP feature on this website AND let us know directly via call, email, text, social media or other form of communication (in-person, verbally, digitally, etc). The sooner the better! The absolute LATEST is by June 1st so we can lock in numbers for our caterer. Please let us know ASAP if you know you cannot attend…. No hard feelings if you cannot make it

If your “+1” did not receive an individual invite or it wasn’t made clear by us during initial communication, PLEASE ask before assuming…. This is so we can confirm a proper guest count for food & drink, seating, etc

If you want to bring them, ask us! brandoncain.and.robin@gmail.com

Yes, our color scheme is “green, gold, & white” but wear whatever makes you feel amazing! We do not have a specific ‘theme’

Dress appropriately for the weather! The ceremony will be exclusively indoors and the reception will be indoors with outdoor elements (the patio as well as the waterfront beach area of the lodge). No requirement for “suit & tie”; although, you will certainly look & feel amazing if you choose to put on one of _those_ outfits... those outfits you rarely find reasons to break out of the closest (; At the end of the day, wear whatever you would like!

Carpooling is strongly recommended not only to promote camaraderie with friends & family, but also to ensure less gas usage, lower individual cost, to encourage nobody being late/left-behind, guarantee that there will be plenty of parking spots, and accountability for sober-driving (:

NO REQUIREMENT!!! The biggest gift we could receive is simply your presence at our event (: IF you would like to ‘give’, we are a young couple essentially fresh out of college and money is nice… So Cash, Check, Venmo, Cash App, Zelle, PayPal, etc | Money would definitely assist us with establishing our lives & living situation sooner than later! If you plan on bringing a physical gift, please bring it to the reception (not the ceremony) and leave it on the designated table

While the marriage ceremony is occurring, please silence your electronic devices and refrain from camera usage as there will be professional videographers & photographers that will be recording this once-in-a-lifetime experience (:

Although there will be professional videographers & photographers present to capture the many memorable moments, please feel free to take your own photos & videos as keepsakes. Whatever you have, please send directly to us and upload to our Google Drive Wedding Folder: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1-d5eDVbTUj8GrqDDszEzmiYhfGOxhnhk

There will be live musicians, DJs, and more! There will be a dance floor, outdoor patio with seating & palm trees overlooking the water, etc.

The Seattle Seafair Torchlight Parade will be occurring the same day as our wedding, so be conscious of the drive times through the city due to all the celebratory occurrences that will be happening

Seattle is very much a “cashless” place. Many places of business only accept cards and digital methods of payment… so plan accordingly.

If you desire, be sure to talk/socialize with one other before the ceremony starts at 2:00pm; seek to renew in union your social joys with those you may not have seen in a long time. Having said that, keep in mind our dear request—> Please “KEEP THE PEACE”: On the way in leave your troubles & worries at the door and set aside your differences with others. Let our wedding be unifying for all with love & delight. If you have issues with other guests in attendance, remember what truly matters and that this event is meant to bring the community together… not promote division of tearing one another apart
