FAQs

Question

When should I RSVP by?

Answer

Please RSVP by March 24, 2025

Question

Is there a dress code?

Answer

Cocktail attire - a balance between 'elegant and comfortable' and 'fancy and pared-back'. If you are wearing a dress it can be long or knee length, if you're not then suits or nice button up shirts are preferred, look your best but don't break the bank to do so (unless you want to, I won't stop you) Note- the ceremony is outdoors and largely in grassy areas, spiky heels may not be a great option. The reception is indoors though!

Question

Can I bring a date?

Answer

Please check your invite for your +1!

Question

Are kids welcome?

Answer

Please check your invite! Our event is catered primarily to adults, as there will be alcohol served, but kids are welcome to join in on the fun. If your child is not listed on the invitation, please check with Emma and Dave first.

Question

What is the parking situation like?

Answer

The venue has a grassy parking lot area that can accommodate a good amount of cars.

Question

Are there any colors I should avoid wearing?

Answer

Aside from white/shades of white, the only color to avoid is dusty lavender if you don't want to match the bridal party! The groomsmen will be in dark gray suits if it matters to you not to match them.

Question

Are you registered? Where?

Answer

We are so excited to have you join our special day. We know many of you will have to travel and your presence at our wedding is the best gift we could ask for. However, if you feel inclined to give a gift, a monetary gift towards building our deck for our home would be very much appreciated. We have set up a cash fund registry which you can find at the registry tab of this website and we will also have a card box at the reception.
