FAQs

Question

Can I Bring My Children?

Answer

We love you and your children. But we have planned an ADULT ONLY reception because we want everyone to have a great time and not have to worry about their kids. We also have a limited amount of seating available and we want to make sure all of our closest friends and family get to join us. Thank you for your understanding on this matter.

Question

Can I Bring A Guest?

Answer

We have a limited amount of seating available and we want to make sure all of our closest friends and family get to join us. This means that our invitations are only meant for those to whom the invitation was addressed. Thank you for your understanding on this matter.

Question

COVID-19

Answer

We realize that we are getting married in a time of heightened awareness of large gatherings. Please note that we want our special day to look and feel as normal as possible. If you wish to wear a mask for our celebration, you may do so, but as of right now, it is not a requirement. If you would prefer to attend our ceremony virtually, we are in the process of making that be an option. We want you to be comfortable with whatever you choose. For our reception, we will try our best to create a seating plan that groups families and friends together. You will also see single use plates, cups, and silverware. Our main dinner will be a served buffet and our appetizer and dessert bars will feature hand sanitizer and gloves for self service. Thank you for respecting our decision on this specific challenge.

Question

What should I wear? Is there a dress code?

Answer

This is not a formal affair - we want our guests to be comfortable. With that said, we prefer jeans, t-shirts, and sneakers be left at home. Business causal attire is requested. Suit jackets not required.

Question

Will the ceremony/ reception outdoors?

Answer

Both the ceremony and reception are indoors at the same venue.

Question

What time should we arrive?

Answer

Our ceremony will start promptly at 3pm. We ask that guests arrive 20-30 minutes (or more) prior to that to find a seat.

Question

Can my dietary restrictions be accomodated during dinner?

Answer

Our appetizer, main meal, and dessert stations will all be either self-service or served buffet style so you will be able to make decisions as to what fits your dietary needs.

Question

Can I take photos and post them to social media?

Answer

We invite everyone to be present with us during our "unplugged" ceremony, so we ask that you please honor our wishes to turn off all phones, pagers, and any other electronic devices until after we are pronounced Mr. & Mrs. We promise to share access to our professional photos. At the receptions, feel free to snap as many pictures as you wish and share them with us using the hashtag(s) that will be posted. And don't forget to "say cheese" at our fun photo booth too!

Question

Where are you registered?

Answer

Should you wish to honor us with a gift, we hope that the registry tab on our website will make it more convenient for you to select something that you know we will love.

Question

When is the RSVP deadline?

Answer

We ask that you mail your response back by August 1, 2021.

Question

What if I cannot make it?

Answer

We will miss you, but we understand. You have two options: You can respond by the RSVP deadline with either " regretfully declines" or "would prefer to attend virtually". We plan to have one person designated to live streaming all of the important parts of our celebration to share with those who cannot join us in person but still wish join us virtually. We will reach out to those responding to attend virtually with more information closer to the wedding.
