FAQs

Question

Do I mail back my RSVP or can I RSVP online?

Answer

Whichever is easiest for you! If you’re already reading this, online might be quicker 😉 if you decide to mail it, though, make sure they are mailed ASAP so we can receive them in a timely fashion :)

Question

Which reception am I invited to?

Answer

Either one, or both! Whichever state is easier for you to come to is the reception we’d love to see you at.

Question

I can’t make either reception! What should I do?

Answer

Just make sure you RSVP to us and let us know you won’t be attending! We’re sorry we won’t be able to see you!

Question

Can I bring a plus one?

Answer

Please do! Just make sure that you RSVP so we have enough food and excitement for everyone involved! 😉

Question

Are children allowed?

Answer

Yes! We love kids. Children, dogs, goldfish.... anything that’s well-behaved and knows how to have fun 😉

Question

What should I wear to your reception?

Answer

We are asking that people wear nice, appropriate clothing, so “church dress”, but nothing that feels too formal or stifling! Please not sweatpants or shorts :)

Question

Where are you registered?

Answer

Our registry is through Zola! We have things from several different brands and stores, as well as the option for cash or gift cards. Check our “registry” tab for more info, or email rebeccadougal@gmail.com with any more questions or concerns!

Question

Do I bring the gift to the wedding?

Answer

Because of the nature of our registry, some gifts actually will be shipped straight to us so as to cut down on shipping and actual boxes, since we’re traveling from state to state! So if you order one of those gifts from the registry, don’t be worried about not bringing a gift :) as for other gifts, there will be a place at the reception for gifts and cards! Thank you in advance!

Question

For the registry, there doesn’t seem to be anything that I can afford / will be able to go out and purchase. Is that okay?

Answer

That’s fine! We would never want to put anybody out or make them feel uncomfortable. We would also love just cash or gift cards, as we already have a lot of essentials and we’re still college students with a lot of schooling ahead of us :)

Question

How do I get to the venue?

Answer

The address is included both on the invitation and online! The Washington venue is a little more difficult to find, but both can be accessed on google maps or with Siri :)

Question

What time should I arrive?

Answer

Anytime during the hours of the reception! We’d love to see you whenever you can get there.

Question

Where should I park / do I pay for parking?

Answer

There is parking available free at both venues!

Question

Will food be served / what if I have a restriction?

Answer

Yes, there will be food and desserts. If you have any allergies or dietary restrictions, please let us know ahead of time or on the RSVP and we will make arrangements.

Question

Are the receptions handicap accessible?

Answer

If they aren’t, we will make them accessible. If you have any concerns please contact us ahead of time and we will make whatever arrangements we need to!

Question

Do you have a hotel block booked?

Answer

Because we aren’t expecting many out-of-town guests, and because there are receptions in two different states, we aren’t planning for tons of people who need a hotel or other lodging! If this is a concern for you please get in contact and we’ll work something out.

Question

Can we come to see you get married?

Answer

Because we’re getting married in a Latter-day Saint temple, only very close friends and family will be present for the actual marriage and sealing. Our temples are very holy, sacred places and in order to enter, individuals must be worthy members of the Church. It’s not secret and we’re not trying to exclude anyone! Our temples are just very sacred and holy, and we thank you for understanding. :) if you have any more questions please reach out!

Question

Some LDS couples do a ring ceremony. Will you be doing one?

Answer

Because of the importance and sacred nature of our marriage and sealing in the temple, we don’t want to downplay it in any way by doing smaller and lesser-important ceremonies outside of it. Our temple ceremonies are beautiful and sacred and take the place of a traditional wedding or exchanging of rings.

Question

I have a question not listed here- how do I contact you?

Answer

Don’t hesitate to ask! Please shoot an email to rebeccadougal@gmail.com :)
