FAQs
Question
When should I RSVP by?
Answer
Please submit your RSVP no later than July 1st. This will ensure an accurate guest count for our vendors in a timely manner!
Question
What time should I arrive for the ceremony?
Answer
We are asking our guests to please arrive 20-30 minutes prior to the start of the ceremony. Please take this time to take a few pictures, say "hi" to other guests, and find a seat. We will start our ceremony promptly at 3pm!
Question
Can I take pictures during the ceremony?
Answer
We kindly ask that all phones be put away as we will be having an "unplugged" ceremony. We want our guests to be fully present with us! We have a wonderful photographer and videographer to capture the entire day. Feel free to take plenty of pictures and videos during the reception!
Question
How will I get from the ceremony to the reception space?
Answer
We recommend parking close to the chapel and driving to the reception space following the ceremony. The reception space has ample parking right next to it. The chapel is indicated as #134 on the map, with nearby parking lots indicated as U21, U17, and U14. https://www.richmond.edu/visit/maps/print/parkingmap.pdf You can use Google maps or the Maps app on iPhones and plug in "Jepson Alumni Center" to get to the reception space.
Question
Is there a dress code?
Answer
While there’s no strict dress code, we understand that having guidelines can ease some stress. We recommend semi-formal to formal attire—think summer garden party! Dresses can range from just above the knee to floor-length. Suit jackets are suggested but not required. Both the ceremony and reception will be held indoors with ample AC.
Question
Can I bring a Plus One or my kids?
Answer
Due to limited seating, we cannot have all of our guests bring a Plus One. Your invitation will indicate all invited guests. Our wedding is an 18+ event (minus a few family members!)
Question
Will there be food served at the reception?
Answer
Yes! Rather than a sit-down dinner, we will have drinks and heavy Hor d'Oeuvres available throughout the entirety of the reception. This way, our guests can choose what they want, when they want!
Question
Where are you registered?
Answer
We are registered on Crate and Barrel and Zola. Both registries can be found on our website or a simple Google search! Please remember to mark a gift as “purchased” on the Zola registry!
