FAQs

Question

Are our children welcome?

Answer

Although we adore your children, we kindly ask that our wedding remain an 18+ occasion.

Question

What is the dress code?

Answer

We can't wait to see you all dressed up for our big day! We understand that it will be hot, so we suggest that you keep it light and comfortable. Think along the lines of flowy dresses, cocktail dresses, dress shirts, and slacks. We ask that you skip the shorts, jeans, and flip flops. Our ceremony is in the forest, so please wear appropriate footwear to ensure your safety on the journey there. Please avoid wearing any form of white, ivory, cream, champagne, etc., and greens and purples stay reserved for the bridal party. We would love for you to match our enchanted forest theme. If you have any questions, please contact the bride!

Question

How will I get home safe?

Answer

The Black Barn is located in the rural outskirts. There are hotels and Airbnbs in the surrounding towns if you need a place to stay. While we will have bar staff to ensure your safety while drinking, we ask that you schedule a designated driver in advance.

Question

Can I bring my camera or take my own photos?

Answer

We kindly ask that guests leave the photography to our professional team so everyone can be fully present and enjoy the moment with us. To help us keep the magic a surprise, we also ask that no photos be shared on social media until after we’ve had a chance to post first. We can’t wait to relive the day through our photographer’s lens, and we promise to share all the beautiful moments with you. Thank you so much for understanding and supporting our unplugged celebration!!

Question

What's the best way to get in contact with any questions?

Answer

The best way to contact the bride is at 607-644-4182. If you’re unsure about anything (what to wear, what to expect for the ceremony site, anything at all), please don’t hesitate to reach out. We’d much rather answer a million questions than have anyone stressed, unsure, or accidentally show up in something we all might regret. We’re just so excited to celebrate with you and want everyone to feel comfortable and confident!

Question

What are the catering options?

Answer

We are so excited to be having Saucy Hog BBQ! If you have any dietary restrictions, please let us know in advance so the catering team can prepare a meal tailored to your needs.

Question

What can I expect at the reception?

Answer

You will be expected to leave it all on the dance floor! We are eager to spend an unforgettable night with you. We’ll be doing a Dollar Dance during the reception. It’s a fun tradition where guests can share a quick dance with the bride or groom in exchange for a small cash gift. If you'd like to join in, feel free to bring a few dollars (cash is best!). No pressure at all, just come ready to have fun and celebrate with us!
