FAQs

Question

How do I get home? Uber? Lyft? Taxi?

Answer

You are responsible for ensuring that someone in your family/ group acts as your DESIGNATED DRIVER. The venue has told us Uber, Lyft, and taxis will not come to Bella Collina because it is too remote. Please arrange for a designated driver. If not they will absolutely lock you out and you’ll be stranded deep in the woods. They are very serious about this.

Question

Vaccine/ covid testing policies?

Answer

Anyone who is symptomatic or unvaccinated HAS to have a covid test. Anyone who has had interaction with someone that has tested positive in the last month HAS to get tested. That being said, we would absolutely love it if all of our guests wanted to get tested. The more people that get tested in advance the more relaxed everyone will feel and the better time we’ll all have. Heck if you get tested and text us a picture of your results we will send you home with some leftover alcohol. Please keep in mind that although there are not any elderly relatives attending there will be children and pregnant women at our wedding. These women and children mean the world to us. If you knowingly come after having had contact with someone with Covid and do not get tested... you will catch these hands ✋ 🤚

Question

What are your covid precautions?

Answer

So glad you asked! We are taking Covid as seriously as we can while simultaneously trying to offer a safe and enjoyable experience for everyone attending. That being said here are our precautions - Wrist bands stating vaccination status - Wrist bands stating social comfort level - Free masks available - Sanitizing stations - Strict policy of unvaccinated guests needing a negative covid test result to attend. - The ceremony will be outside - The bar for cocktail hour is located inside but you are welcome to stand on the outdoor shaded patio - The reception is outside .

Question

Can I bring my kids?

Answer

We LOVE your minis! How could we not? They’re literally a mash up of our favorite people. Because your freshy freshy babies are so super loved it’s probably best that they stay with their lovey grandparents. This is our nicest way of saying no kiddos under 2. We love your babies so much but we want you guys to cut loose and have a blast!

Question

Is there parking?

Answer

Yes. Park in the upper lot.

Question

What’s the bar situation?

Answer

Beer, wine, and hard seltzer’s. Open bar. Go nuts.

Question

Why a Friday?

Answer

Because of all of the wedding cancellations & postponements our venue was only allowing postponements to be held on Fridays or Sunday reserving Saturday’s for new couples. Totally understandable and we are thankful to our venues and vendors for being flexible.

Question

When’s Dinner?

Answer

Cocktail hour with light hors d’oeuvres will be 6pm-7-pm. Dinner at 7:30.

Question

Are there Vegan, GF, & Vegetarian options?

Answer

Yes! Definitely vegetarian, sides for Vegans, and some GF options. If your name is Brie you might need snacks.

Question

What do I wear?

Answer

Let’s start with this, it will be august & outdoors. The groomsmen are opting for a vest rather than suit jacket so they don’t cook. Ladies! Sundresses and flats/ wedges. There are lots of stairs and grassy areas. The dance area is on the upper deck. The wedding vibe is very summer on the Amalfi Coast. Think stripes, lemons, flowy dresses, colorful! If your name is Iky, bring spare pants.

Question

You’re already married... why are you having a second wedding?

Answer

Well honestly our first wedding was a quickly planned 24hrs in advance. We didn’t exchange vows or rings. It was purely for insurance and travel benefits. Then after covid we tried to cancel and for a small window of time we thought the wedding was canceled. Turns out our venue doesn’t let you cancel so here we are. Having the big wedding with cheesy vows and gelato. Ya welcome.

Question

Can I bring Liquor?

Answer

As much as we would love to see our guest get loose this is a HARD NO. The venue is strictly beer & wine. Anyone with liquor will be asked to leave the property.

Question

Are there hotels blocked off?

Answer

Nope! There was not enough interest because most everyone lives close by.

Question

What time is this shindig over?

Answer

Glow stick send off is at 10PM
