FAQs
Question
Can I RSVP online or do I have to mail in an RSVP card?
Answer
We invite you to RSVP online here [https://bit.ly/anna-mark-rsvp] or by mailing in the RSVP card sent with the invitation. Please RSVP by September 30th.
Question
What time should I arrive at your wedding ceremony?
Answer
We recommend arriving between 20-30 minutes before our ceremony start time (ceremony starts at 4:30pm, so arrive between 4:00-4:10pm). This ensures everyone can get parked, to their seat, and ready for a prompt ceremony start time. And of course so we can get to the cocktails, dinner, and dancing faster! :)
Question
What is the dress code for your wedding?
Answer
We recommend cocktail attire. For the ladies, that's cocktail dresses, skirts, dressy jumpsuits, and for the guys that's jackets and slacks. We also want you to be comfortable so just use your best judgement. We recommend bringing a light jacket, shawl or cardigan as the weather will get cooler when the sun goes down.
Question
Will your wedding be indoors or outdoors?
Answer
We are planning for our ceremony to be outdoors but do have an indoor backup plan if weather doesn't cooperate. The reception will be under a covered barn but it does not have heating. We recommend bringing a light jacket, shawl or cardigan as the weather will get cooler when the sun goes down.
Question
What is the weather like in the area?
Answer
The average high for October 26 is 69 degrees (20.5 C) and the average low is 42 (5.5 C). October weather can be fickle so please check the forecast ahead of your travel. Again, we recommend bringing a light jacket, shawl or cardigan in case it gets cool in the evening.
Question
Is there parking available near your wedding & reception venue?
Answer
Yes, there is parking right next to our venue and there will be plenty of spaces.
Question
What is the easiest way to get to and from your wedding venue?
Answer
We recommend carpooling with others to the wedding venue and ensure you have a DD if your group plans to drink. If you are staying in the guest suites associated with the venue then you're only a 3 min drive or 10-15 min walk.
Question
Am I allowed to bring a plus one?
Answer
If you were invited as a single person, then you are welcome to bring a plus one. Families and couples were invited in pairs/groups. If you have any questions about who you can bring, then please message Anna (336.981.5423).
Question
Will there be meal options for guests with dietary restrictions or allergies?
Answer
If you have dietary restrictions, then please note those when you RSVP by mail or online and we will do our best to accommodate you.
Question
Will there be an open bar?
Answer
We will have an open bar at the wedding reception but recommend bringing cash to tip the bartenders. For the welcome party, we will pay for up to two drinks per person. Please plan to bring cash for tipping the bartenders and card/cash for any additional beverages you'd like to enjoy.
