FAQs

Question

When and where are you tying the knot?

Answer

Our wedding is being held right here in our own backyard in Peoria, AZ on April 18, 2026! Ceremony begins at 3:15pm. The address is in the invitation you received, but please feel free to confirm with us if needed.

Question

By what date should we RSVP?

Answer

All guests should RSVP on or before March 1, 2026. As we will be renting only enough tables and chairs to accommodate those who confirm their attendance, any guest who does not RSVP will automatically be added to our 'declined' list. We will send out a reminder to RSVP one week before the final date.

Question

Do you have a gift registry?

Answer

We do not! While gifts are appreciated, they are not expected. The best gift you can give is coming to celebrate our marriage with us! If you would like to give a gift, you may contribute to our honeymoon fund to help us make memories that the two of us will cherish forever.

Question

Is there a recommended arrival time?

Question

What should we wear?

Answer

We want everyone to be comfortable and stylish! Since it is a backyard wedding, our dress code is Garden Party attire. Think sundresses, collared shirts and slacks, and other comfortable, yet nicer clothing. Light, breathable fabrics are best since the weather will be warm and sunny. We do ask that you do not wear casual wear such jeans, shorts, flip flops, camo, or any white/off-white colors. We would also advise against heels!

Question

Are our kids invited?

Answer

Of course they are! While we encourage everyone to use this as a 'mom and dad's night out,' we are happy to have your little ones there to join in on the celebrations. Just be sure to include them when submitting your RSVP.

Can we take pictures?
