Question
What should I wear?
Answer
Please dress semi-formal with sunset/sunrise-like colors if possible (oranges, yellows, coral, peach, burgundy, blue and browns). Since we are a small wedding, we want things to look semi-uniform for photos please! Also, please dress warm! It will be well into fall season and up on a mountain so it will be pretty chilly! Please plan accordingly. If you have any questions regarding attire, please don't hesitate to reach out to the bride @ 770-680-8949.
Question
What date should I RSVP by?
Answer
We would like everyone to have RSVP'd by AUGUST 31ST! If we have not heard from you by that date, we will kindly reach out individually to you to find out if you plan to attend!
Question
Are my children invited to the wedding?
Answer
Due to limited space at our ceremony location, we've had to keep our guest list very small. As much as we love your little ones, we kindly ask that this be an adults-only celebration. We hope you'll enjoy a special day out while they're in good hands at home.
Question
Where are you registered for gifts?
Answer
As we're keeping things simple and non-traditional: no big venue, no formal catering- there's absolutely no expectation for gifts. But, if you'd like to contribute to our honeymoon fund, we've set one up as a way to help us start our next adventure together. It can be found until the Registry tab on this website. Please don't feel obliged -your love, support, and presence are more than enough!
Question
Can I bring a friend/plus-one?
Answer
We wish we could invite everyone we love (and everyone you love too!), but our ceremony location on the mountain has very limited space. We've had to keep our guest list very small to ensure everyone can be comfortably accommodated. We hope you understand that we can only include the guests named on your invitation.
Question
Is there parking at Snoopers Rock?
Answer
There is parking, however, we were told it was somewhat limited. We encourage carpooling from the hotel, if possible, to the park. We are hopeful though that parking won't be an issue since the ceremony is in early morning!
Question
Can I take photos during the ceremony?
Answer
We kindly ask that everyone put away their phones and cameras during the ceremony. We've hired a wonderful photographer to capture every moment, and we want you to be able to relax, be fully present, and experience it with us in real time. After all, the best memories aren't made through a screen--they're made by being there together.
Question
Do I have to go to the dinner celebration or sleep at the hotel the night before?
Answer
No! You aren't obligated to go to either. We know this is a destination wedding of sorts and it will cost both your time and money to attend these events. We understand if you are unable to attend dinner/hotel/etc. We just kindly ask that whatever you RSVP, you follow through with since a lot of coordination has gone into making arrangements for accurate headcounts! Thank you in advance!
Question
What time is checkout at the hotel?
Answer
Checkout on 10/30 is at 12:00 p.m. According to the wedding day schedule, family photos will wrap up around 8:30 a.m., followed by romantic couple photos until about 9:45 a.m. There's no formal plan after the ceremony, so if you'd like to head back to the hotel to relax or pack up, you'll have plenty of time before checkout. We hope you leave with happy memories.
