IS THIS AN INDOOR OR OUTDOOR CEREMONY/ RECEPTION?
The ceremony will be completely outdoors.
The reception will be held in a barn with outdoor access, weather permitting.
You will not have to wear boots or any farm-like footwear to have your feet protected in this barn. But if boots are your thing, go for it! :)
IS THERE A DRESS CODE?
For our guest, we'd appreciate cocktail attire; no jeans.
Please do not wear any shades of green, purple, or white/ivories/creams. This includes white/ivories/creams outfits with colorful patterns. If you would like to match the Spring theme, the bride and groom love pastel colors of orange, yellow, and blue. These colors are not required, only a suggestion.
CAN I BRING A PLUS ONE/ADDITIONAL GUESTS?
Our wedding is strictly RSVP only. We will only be able to accommodate those listed on your invitation.
WILL THERE BE ACCOMMODATIONS FOR ELDERLY/DISABLED GUESTS??
Yes. There will be a golf cart provided for guests who are needing assistance.
ARE KIDS WELCOME?
We love your little ones! However, we have decided to keep our wedding an adults-only event with few exceptions. We appreciate you making arrangements ahead of time and leaving the kids at home so you can celebrate with us.
WHAT HAPPENS AFTER THE CEREMONY?
After the ceremony, the bridal party will be taking pictures around the venue. Guests may head straight over to the reception area to mingle for Cocktail Hour.
WILL THERE BE AN OPEN BAR?
Absolutely! The drinks are on us and the hangover is on you! :)
WHAT HAPPENS IF I DO NOT RSVP IN TIME?
Any RSVPs received after our deadline will be marked as "declined". We will miss celebrating with you, however, we have to provide a total guest count to the venue and vendors in the timely manner they have given us. Thank you for your understanding!
ANY QUESTIONS WE MISSED?
We are happy to answer any additional questions. Please contact Sierra or Travis directly.
WHAT IF I CAN NO LONGER MAKE IT TO THE WEDDING AFTER SUBMITTING AN RSVP RESPONSE OF YES?
Please contact us ASAP via text should your plans change to provide our wedding vendors the most accurate count.
DO YOU HAVE A REGISTRY?
Your presence is the greatest present we could ask for! For friends and family who have expressed an interest, we've created an online registry on The Knot and Amazon. Should you wish to bless us with a gift, a contribution to our honeymoon would be greatly appreciated.
ARE FIREARMS PERMITTED?
No. Our venue has a strict policy of no firearms allowed on the property. Please keep them at home or in the hotel. TIA!
