FAQs
Question
What time should I arrive to the wedding ceremony?
Answer
The ceremony starts at 3:00p.m. TAYVIN TIME, but if you show up at that exact moment, you might end up awkwardly sneaking up behind Aimee in heels. Please plan to arrive 25-30 minutes early to find your seat, admire how good you look, and pretend you weren't rushing.
Question
What is the dress code?
Answer
Formal/Cocktail Attire Think: Classy, fabulous, and ready to be photographed a lot. Ladies: We are looking for dresses that slay, jumpsuits and/or pantsuits that stun, and looks that serve. We prefer longer dresses, but a sophisticated and stunning fingertip-length is fine too. No shorts or rompers please. Men: We are looking for dress pants, dress shirts, suits...basically something that makes people say "Wow, he cleans up nice." No jeans, cargo shorts, sneakers, and no "this is all I had clean" energy.
Question
Will the ceremony, coffee hour, and reception take place indoors or outdoors?
Answer
As long as mother nature behaves, the ceremony and coffee hour will be outdoors, and the reception will be indoors. If there is a light sprinkle, bring an umbrella because the ceremony will still be held outdoors. It would have to be pouring for the ceremony to be switched to indoors. If that happens...I don't even want to know Aimee's reaction...and I AM Aimee.
Question
Are my children invited?
Answer
We love your little humans, but this day is adults-only with the exception of a few close relatives. We are trading baby cries (except Nathan's) with dance-floor vibes. Trust us, you deserve a day off (with alcohol and zero goldfish crumbs).
Question
Can I bring a guest/date?
Answer
If your invitation says "+1," then yes, as long as they are cool and fabulous. If not, we kindly ask that you fly solo this time. You will most likely know other people at the event that you can mingle with. This guest list is tighter than Aimee's bobby pins. (Contact Aimee if you really really want that plus one)
Question
Are the ceremony & reception at the same place?
Answer
Yes! No need to google maps your way to another location in formalwear. You can go straight from "I do" to "let's dance" without even moving your car. Less driving, more partying, you're welcome. Planning this wedding was complicated (and expensive) enough without having to book two separate venues.
Question
Where do I park?
Answer
Don’t worry—we’ve got parking, and no, you shouldn't have to parallel park under pressure. There will be designated parking at Tayvin Gardens, and there will be no valet (unless you count one of the guests saying, "you good here?") Follow the signs, the people in nice outfits, or just look for where everyone else is pretending they know where to go.
Question
Will there be an open bar?
Answer
We are serving up free drinks! (your liver has been warned) There will be signature drinks to honor our adorable cats along with beer and additional spirits! Beware of questionable dance moves and bring some Tylenol.
Question
Is attending the ceremony mandatory to attend the reception?
Answer
Yes, please! Celebrating our love is the reason we are throwing this party. Come for the love, stay for the food, and enjoy the party!
