Question

When should we arrive at the venue for the ceremony?

Answer

Please arrive between 4:30-4:50pm to grab a seat and a pre-ceremony drink! Our ceremony will begin at 5pm.

Question

Dress Code - What should you wear?

Answer

Dress code is “garden cocktail” - colorful outfits are encouraged! We encourage everyone to dress to impress while keeping in mind the venue's vibe and weather. If you're unsure, take advice from Natalie's great aunt Mary Jane - it's always better to be slightly overdress than underdressed! Men: A suit and tie of any color is appropriate attire for men attending a wedding with a cocktail wedding dress code. Please no jeans. Women: Dress of various lengths, including knee-length, midi or maxi, is appropriate attire. Feel free to embrace a colorful floral pattern, but please refrain from wearing white. Make sure to wear your dancing shoes!

Question

Will the wedding be indoors or outdoors?

Answer

Both! Weather permitting (*everyone cross their fingers!*) our ceremony and cocktail hour will occur outside. Guests can walk from the parking lot to the grassy area from paved pathways, but will need to step on grass to take their seats. For that reason, stiletto or otherwise-thin heels are not recommended. Our cocktail hour will be on the large patio outside, and we will go indoors for our reception with dinner, drinks and dancing!

Question

Are the ceremony and reception locations wheelchair accessible?

Answer

The Mill at Rock Creek is wheelchair accessible for all parts of our wedding. There is a paved parking lot at the front where guests can use the paved sidewalk to access the grass yard (ceremony spot), large patio space (cocktail hour) and the inside The Mill (reception).

Question

Will there be an open bar at your wedding?

Answer

Yes! Please plan accordingly and have a way of getting home safely! If you are unable to drive, cars can be left in the venue's parking lot overnight but must be picked up before 10 a.m. the following day.

Question

What type of food will be served at our wedding?

Answer

Our wedding will be catered by Coyote Kitchen, a local Boone, NC restaurant that serves southwest and caribbean inspired soulfood. Ben and Natalie's first date was at a Tex-Mex restaurant. As a couple, when they don't know where to grab dinner out, their consensus will eventually land them in the closest Mexican restaurant. They wanted to include their love for chips and salsa, tacos and margaritas into their wedding day!
