FAQs

Question

Is there a dress code?

Answer

Our wedding attire is formal / black tie optional. We’d love for everyone to dress up and celebrate with us in style! Think elegant, festive, and cozy winter wedding vibes.

Question

Are children invited?

Answer

Absolutely! Children are warmly welcomed and very much part of our celebration. We can’t wait to celebrate with all of our favorite people — little ones included!

Question

Can I bring a plus one?

Answer

If your invitation includes a plus one, it will be listed on your RSVP. Due to venue capacity, we unfortunately can’t accommodate additional guests beyond those listed.

Question

What colors or styles should guests avoid?

Answer

We kindly ask guests to avoid wearing white, ivory, or anything that could photograph similarly to the brides’ outfits. Our bridesmaids will be wearing red, so we kindly ask guests to avoid wearing the same shade of red if possible. We especially encourage rich, warm winter tones such as: * Emerald or forest green * Black * Chocolate brown * Champagne or gold * Deep pink or berry tones * Navy * Velvet textures and jewel tones December evenings can be chilly, so coats, wraps, faux fur, and layered formalwear are absolutely welcome!

Question

What time should I arrive?

Answer

We recommend arriving about 30 minutes before the ceremony begins so everyone has time to park, settle in, and silence their phones before we start.

Question

Is parking available?

Answer

Yes! Parking information and any transportation details will be added closer to the wedding weekend.

Question

Can I take photos during the ceremony?

Answer

We ask that guests keep phones and cameras away during the ceremony so everyone can be fully present with us. Once cocktail hour and the reception begin, please take all the photos you’d like!

Question

Will there be an open bar?

Answer

Yes — come ready to celebrate, dance, and enjoy the evening with us!

Question

Are there hotel recommendations?

Answer

Yes! We’ll have a hotel block and recommended accommodations listed on the Travel page of our website.

Question

Where are you registered?

Answer

Your presence is the greatest gift, but if you’d like to celebrate with a gift, our registry information will be linked on the website.

Question

How did you two meet?

Answer

We met 9 years ago while working together at Walgreens in Hastings, Michigan. One of our favorite memories from the beginning of our relationship was watching weddings from the lake near Bay Pointe Inn — and now we finally get to celebrate our own.
