FAQs

Question

Will the wedding have any COVID-related restrictions?

Answer

All guests age 12+ must be vaccinated in order to attend our wedding. (This age range may change as COVID vaccination is approved for younger children- fingers crossed!). Quite frankly, Allison has treated too many COVID patients and seen too many people die of this horrible virus to risk allowing unvaccinated guests. Additionally, children under 12 should be tested for COVID-19 prior to our wedding. Masks will not be required, however you are more than welcome to wear one if you would be more comfortable.

Question

When is the RSVP deadline?

Answer

Please RSVP no later than October 8, 2021

Question

Where are you registered?

Answer

We are registered at Amazon. Some of the items on our registry will take you to other sites for purchase. This is a feature Amazon offers which allows us to pick things from multiple websites while listing them all in one central place. We also have cash fund options through Zola (that's the site you're currently on) and will have a gift table/card box at our wedding. Links are available under the "registry" tab.

Question

What should I wear?

Answer

Cocktail attire, please! For women, short or long dresses are perfect as are dressy separates. For men, anything from slacks and a blazer to a suit and tie. For our non-binary guests, please wear whatever you like within the purview of cocktail attire.

Question

Is there a hotel block reserved?

Answer

Yes! Check out the "travel" tab for more information.

Question

Are kids allowed?

Answer

We are limiting children to family only. If your kids are listed on your invitation, please bring them! If not, we ask that only those guests listed on the invitation attend.

Question

May I bring a date/plus one?

Answer

If your RSVP says "and guest", absolutely! If not, we are sorry but we cannot accommodate any additional guests.

Question

What time should I arrive?

Answer

Our ceremony will begin at 4:30. Guests are welcome to begin arriving as early as 4:00.

Question

Are the ceremony and reception at the same location?

Answer

Yes! Our entire wedding will take place at Thompson House and Gardens. The ceremony will be outside with cocktail hour in the courtyard and the reception indoors. If it rains (please send us good vibes that it won't), the entire event will be held indoors.

Question

What is the parking situation?

Answer

Thompson House and Gardens has use of a large parking lot immediately next to the venue. You are welcome to drive and park there. Please be responsible and take an Uber/Lyft or use a designated driver if you plan to drink.

Question

Is the venue ADA compliant?

Answer

The entire venue is ADA complaint including nearby parking, accessible entrances, and restrooms. If you have any concerns about accessibility, please let Devon or Allison know!

Question

May I take photos?

Answer

We ask that all phones and cameras please, please be turned off and put away during our ceremony. We want everyone to truly enjoy being in the moment. Our professional photographers will be taking plenty of ceremony photos which we promise to share with everyone! You are welcome to take all the photographs you like during the cocktail hour and reception.

Question

You're feeding me, right?

Answer

Of course!! There will be hors d'oeuvres during cocktail hour in the courtyard as well as a buffet dinner during the reception. There will also be a full open bar.

Question

I have a food allergy/dietary restriction. Can you accommodate this?

Answer

We will do our best to work with our caterer to be sure there is something for everyone. If you have any specific allergies or dietary restrictions, please let us know by the RSVP deadline!
