FAQs
Question
What should I wear?
Answer
Please DO wear: Garden Cocktail- which means: Earth tones or muted colors. We are looking to be the brightest outfits out there, don't outshine me. Mid-length to ankle-length dresses for those who choose dresses, and slacks and a button down shirts for those who don't choose to wear a dress. The goal is to look nicer than you would for church, but this isn't black tie. Have fun with limits. Look elegant, yet be yourself... that's what we're doing. Please DO NOT wear: Anything with patterns. Anything close to neon- again don't outshine me. No jeans, hats, and especially no "night out" booty dresses- this won't be a club scene.
Question
What time should we be there?
Answer
Please do not be there any earlier than 4:30 PM. Please do not be there any later than 5:20 PM If you are any later than 5:20 you will not be allowed to enter the area until the ceremony is over. If you are any earlier than 4:30 we ask you stay in your cars, so we can make our grand entrance without being spotted.
Question
Can I bring a plus one?
Answer
The short answer is: no, no, no, and no. The long answer is: Everyone that is formally invited will be listed on the invite. Example: The Hillis Family (this includes everyone that resides in your household), Mrs. and Mrs. Hillis (this includes only the couple), and Mrs. Hillis (this is only you). Please do NOT ask us if you can bring a plus one that isn't included on your invite. We do not want anyone there that doesn't know one of us personally. If you are scared to come alone, this would be a great time for you to make new friends as we will want to have big hang outs in the future :) This is NOT the day to have us meet anyone new for the first time that doesn't know one of us personally. If you feel that we might want somebody we know personally there and forgot to send an invite, this would be the ONLY reason to ask us if they can come.
Question
Can I bring my kids?
Answer
The only kids that will be allowed at the wedding are the ones formally invited.
Question
Are there assigned seats?
Answer
There will be no "assigned" seating at the ceremony or reception. There will be "reserved" seating for specific guests, such as: parents, grandparents, and wedding party.
Question
What are we having for dinner?
Answer
The Pizza Machine will be there; we are providing cheese and pepperoni pizza.
Question
Will there be alcohol?
Answer
Hellllll yes. We will be having an open bar, but once it's gone- it's gone. Everything that contains alcohol has to be served by the provided bartender (it is very welcomed to tip her/him). What does that mean- THIS IS NOT BYOB. If you want something specific to sip on throughout the night, you can bring your own drinks, BUT it must be served from behind the bar. Please keep in mind that there will be no beer provided. If you decide to bring something that isn’t being provided PLEASE give it to our bartender so we do not get fined. AGAIN- THERE IS NO OUTSIDE ALCOHOL.
Question
Why can't I see the RSVP details?
Answer
That would mean you have NOT RSVP'd by the required date.
Question
Will be indoors or outdoors?
Answer
Both- the ceremony will be held outdoors and then we will eat/ first dances/ speeches will be indoors. Then we will move back outside once the sun goes down a bit to finish off the night on the dance floor.
