We recommend that you arrive an half-hour before the start of the ceremony, to make sure everyone is on time and we can get the party started as scheduled!
How do I get to the venue?
Hope-Wellness Eco-Resort is about a 30 minute drive from Moncton, right on Highway 114. Parking is available on site.
Will the ceremony be indoors or outdoors?
The ceremony will be taking place outdoors, the reception will be tented.
What should I wear to the ceremony?
Wear something fun (colour & pattern appreciated) and semi-formal (think cocktail dresses, collared shirts, jackets recommended).
If that stresses you out, just don't wear white. I also recommend sensible shoes, as it is primarily outdoors!
What should I do if I can't make it?
You will be missed! If you can not make it to the wedding, please let us know as soon as possible and RSVP “no,” so we can plan accordingly.
Are kids welcome?
We love your little ones! However, to allow all of our guests, including parents, the chance to have an evening of relaxation, we request that the ceremony and reception be for adults only.
Will food and drink be served at the reception?
After the ceremony we will have a open mimosa bar while the couple takes photos. Once we're back, we'll have a buffet-style brunch, see the home page for full menu.
Do I need to bring a gift?
Absolutely not! The best gift is your presence.
As we've lived together for a few years, we don't really need anything new. But if you were thinking of getting us a small wedding gift, a contribution towards our home renovations wouldn't go amiss. A wedding card box will be at our reception.
What's the afterparty?
We wanted a chance for everyone to have the full nordic experience (thermal spa) -- so it's an open invitation to come back to the property to sweat it out in the sauna, plunge in the pool, and hang out by the fire pit.
Will there be food/drink at the afterparty?
We'll serve light refreshments but not a full meal. There will be a cash bar available.
What do I need for the "nordic experience"?
Your swimsuit, towel, and sandals! A bathrobe and toque are nice once you've completed the circuit and want to relax.
