Question

When should I RSVP?

Answer

Question

Is there a dress code?

Answer

Please join us in summer cocktail attire! We encourage you to wear what feels comfortable and celebratory. We kindly ask guests to avoid wearing white or cream-colored dresses. Our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour will take place on the lawn, with a mix of gravel and paved paths. Please keep this in mind when choosing footwear. You may want to bring a pair of sunglasses as it could be a bright day!

Question

Is there parking at the venue?

Yes! Our venue has plenty of parking available for guests!

Question

Will there be an open bar?

Answer

We’ll be offering an open bar with two signature cocktails, plus beer and wine throughout the evening. All drinks will be served by our bartenders—please note that outside alcohol is not allowed at the venue. We want everyone to have a wonderful time, so please enjoy the evening responsibly and pace yourself. If you’re planning to drink, we strongly encourage using a ride share service like Uber or Lyft—there are plenty available nearby to get you home safely.

Question

Can I bring a plus one?

Answer

Our venue has limited space, so we can only accommodate those listed on your invitation. Thank you for your understanding!

Question

What time should I arrive at the venue?

Answer

To ensure you are comfortably seated by 3:30 PM, we request that you arrive approximately 20 minutes in advance. We ask that guests refrain from arriving prior to 3:00 PM, allowing our vendors time to complete their preparations and ensure everything is perfectly in place.

Question

Can I take photos & videos?

Answer

We kindly ask that all phones and cameras be put away during our ceremony. We’ve hired a professional photographer to capture every special moment, and we can’t wait to share those photos with you! Once the ceremony is over, feel free to snap away—photos and videos are more than welcome during the cocktail hour and reception. Thank you so much for your understanding and for being fully present with us as we say “I do.”

Question

I have a food allergy, can I make a special request?

No! Our ceremony and reception will both be held at Trillium Nursery Farm!
