FAQs

If you have any other questions that we don't have listed here, please contact the bride or groom.
Question

When do I need to RSVP?

Answer

Please respond by July 1st! If we don't receive your RSVP by this date, we will assume you are unable to attend, and you will be missed!

Question

What is the dress code?

Answer

Formal attire! Dress to impress in your best garden party style formal outfits. For the guys, full suits or button up shirts with slacks would be appropriate (no jeans, khakis, or shorts). For the ladies, midi or floor length dresses are appropriate (color encouraged). If you're in need of style inspiration, check out this Pinterest board: https://pin.it/b5VLQP3zx

Question

Is there a hotel block?

Answer

We have a hotel block nearby at the Courtyard by Marriott. See the “Travel” page for more information on booking. We encourage you to book at this hotel or one of the 3 hotels next door to the Courtyard, as there will be a shuttle available to and from the venue.

Question

What are my transportation options?

Answer

We have arranged a shuttle to transport guests between the Courtyard by Marriott Hotel and the wedding venue. The venue also has plenty of parking, and they don’t mind if you leave your car overnight.

Question

Where do I park?

Answer

There will be parking available at the venue, with a relatively short (and scenic) walkway through the vineyard and to the ceremony/reception areas. You can find a map of the venue on the "Schedule & Venue" page. For those who may need extra assistance and would prefer to skip the walk, please let us know in advance so that we can provide you with drive-up and drop-off instructions.

Question

When should I arrive?

Answer

Please plan to arrive between 3:30-3:45pm to give yourself plenty of time to park, grab a welcome drink, walk to the ceremony, and find a seat! The ceremony will begin promptly at 4pm.

Question

Can I take pictures or videos during the ceremony?

Answer

We ask that you honor our "unplugged" ceremony and keep phones off and away. We've hired very talented professionals to capture the ceremony and would love for our guests to be fully present in the moment! Once the ceremony is over, please feel free to take as many pictures and videos as your heart desires (and make sure to share with us)!

Question

Can I bring my kids or a date?

Answer

We are only able to accommodate the guests formally invited on your wedding invitation and listed in the RSVP. Thanks for understanding, and please let us know if you have any questions!

Question

Are there any colors I should avoid wearing?

Answer

Ladies, please avoid wearing white, ivory, champagne, cream, or light yellow to help the wedding party stand out!

Question

Will the wedding take place indoors or outdoors?

Answer

All events will be held outdoors (the reception will be covered). We can't wait to celebrate on a gorgeous Michigan summer day with you all!

Question

Will there be an open bar?

Answer

Yes! Drinks are on us, but the hangover is on you.

Question

I have dietary restrictions - can I make a special request?

Answer

Absolutely! Please reach out to the bride or groom with concerns/requests.
