FAQs

Question

Is there parking?

Answer

Yes! The Majestic has their own lot, and there’s lots of nearby street parking.

Question

What time should I arrive at the ceremony?

Answer

The ceremony will begin at 3:30pm. We suggest arriving at 3:00pm so you can comfortably park, find your seat, and settle in.

Question

Can I take pictures?

Answer

We are having an "unplugged" ceremony. This just means we are asking that all phones and devices be put away and on silent/turned off during the ceremony. Why? Well, we've hired a professional to capture some of the most important moments of our lives, and we'd hate to have a well-meaning person's phone/device blocking that moment for him to capture. After the ceremony, feel free to take as many photos as you want! And we promise to share the ceremony photos as soon as we get them.

Question

Is there a dress code?

Answer

Be a little more spiffy than usual if you wish, but please, dress comfortably :)

Question

Can I bring a date?

Answer

We request that any additional desired guests not addressed on the invitation envelope are confirmed with the bride or groom prior to the wedding date.

Question

Are kids welcome?

Answer

Absolutely! We love kiddos. We do request that any children and other guests not originally addressed on the invitation be verified with the bride or groom prior to the wedding day.

Question

I have a food allergy, can I make a special request?

Answer

Please do! There is a place to do this when you RSVP through this website (see the RSVP tab above). Our caterer can easily accommodate vegetarian and gluten-free diets with advanced notice.

Question

Are you registered? Where?

Answer

We have a cash donation registry on Zola if you would like to contribute to our honeymoon or our "first house fund". Otherwise, we are registered on Amazon. Click the "registry" link to access both. Tip: type “Fortin” into the Amazon registry search for quicker access than “Roberts” :)

Question

What's the bar situation?

Answer

We'll provide an open bar with on-tap beer, sparkling wine cocktails, and a selection of red & white wines (as well as multiple non-alcoholic options). We only ask that you please tip your bartender!

Question

What time will the reception end?

Answer

The farewell will take place at 10:00pm.

Question

What if I've had a few by the reception's end and shouldn't drive?

Answer

Our #1 priority is having our guests avoid unsafe situations. In having an open bar, we ask that you please know your limits. However, mistakes happen! Luckily, The Majestic is located in central downtown Bellingham, with plenty of Lyft drivers and cabs on standby. Please see a member of the wedding party to bum some cash if you need to—we’ll have a dedicated “get home safe” fund and want you to use it!
