FAQs

Question

When and where is the wedding?

Answer

Date: October 18, 2025 Time: Ceremony begins at 4:00 PM Location: Mills Chapel at Sweet Briar College We recommend that guests gather at the chapel between 3:30 and 3:45 PM to avoid chasing the brides down the aisle.

Question

When should I RSVP by?

Answer

Kindly RSVP by Friday, September 5, 2025.

Question

What is the dress code?

Answer

Formal Attire Requested Let your style channel an air of elegant mystique! Join us in incorporating subtle, sophisticated elements of haunted charm - perhaps a dash of dramatic black, velvet, lace, or enchanted accessories. No costumes, no jeans please.

Question

Where should I park?

Answer

Guests who stay at the Elston Inn on site should park in the lots by the Inn, on your right just after the Sweet Briar guardhouse entrance. Guests who drive in for the day are encouraged to park at the Inn as well. The walk from the Inn to the chapel is short and pretty! Those with mobility concerns can park in the lot in front of the chapel for the ceremony, then in the lot in front of Wailes Conference Center for the reception. These lots are small, so we ask those comfortable walking to please do so.

Question

Can I bring a plus one?

Answer

We've attempted to make this clear on your invitation, but if you're unsure - reach out and ask! We love love, but we also have limited space, so please limit your party to those listed on your invitation and the RSVP link.

Question

Should I bring my kids?

Answer

Your littles are welcome if you want to bring them - we can't wait to see them on the dance floor! You are also welcome to choose a babysitter and have a night away from your little ghouls if you prefer. Please make this choice clear on your RSVP so that we can provide seats and activities for kids who do join us.

Question

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

Answer

Absolutely. Our caterer will work with us on food restrictions. Please mark this in your RSVP notes.
