FAQs
Question
Where is the Ceremony and Reception?
Answer
The ceremony will be held at the Baughman Center: 982 Museum Rd, Gainesville FL 32603 promptly at 10am. The reception will be held at The Wooly: 20 N Main St, Gainesville FL 32601 at 2pm.
Question
When should I RSVP by?
Answer
Please RSVP by October 1st. We will send out RSVP reminders as the date gets closer. Dinner will be served in the order RSVPs are received! We do need a head count for catering and venue usage as well - if you do not RSVP, we will assume you are not coming and therefore will not be able to accommodate your surprise appearance.
Question
Is the wedding ceremony and reception at the same location?
Answer
No, the ceremony and reception will take place at separate locations. There will be roughly a couple of hours between events to allow for ample photos to be taken around Gainesville and with all of our loved ones. Please plan accordingly but also note that this time gap is perfect for a quick bite to eat or drink while exploring Gainesville before the reception starts.
Question
What about parking?
Answer
There will be free parking available at the Baughman Center for the wedding ceremony. For our friends and family from out of town who may not be familiar with the Gainesville area, downtown Gainesville parking for the Wooly can be difficult. We recommend carpooling or ridesharing to eliminate the worry of parking but also to ensure your safety while traveling, particularly after all of the festivities of the evening (no drinking and driving!).
Question
Unplugged Ceremony
Answer
To keep the moment intimate (and the photos clean and clear of screens!), we ask that you silence and put away all devices during the ceremony. The wonderful, hired photographers will have these special moments covered. Don't worry - you'll have plenty of time to take photos during the reception!
Question
Will there be food? Drinks?
Answer
Yes and yes! We will have catered food from The Top (another Gainesville staple/favorite of ours) in a buffet style (another favorite of ours 😉). The Wooly will have a full, open bar for part of the evening.
Question
What is the Dress Code?
Answer
Dress to impress - but make sure you can dance in it! Think semi-formal or cocktail attire: stylish, polished, and party ready. Please avoid wearing white - let's save that, and anything else attention-grabbing, for the bride.
Question
Are you registered? Where?
Answer
Your presence is the best present we could ask for. However, if you do choose to give a gift, please consider a cash gift to assist in funding a honeymoon! While living together for the past four years, we have accumulated more than enough house goods (and then some to last us beyond our three moves together!).
Question
Do you have any local food recommendations? Hotel recommendations?
Answer
Please see the "travel" tab as it becomes available with details.
Question
Are kids welcome?
Answer
We love your kids almost as much as you do, but please leave them at home. The celebrations will get rowdy and are adult-only.
