We’re planning one heck of a party and need to know if you’re in! Let us know by January 10th so we can save you a seat, a plate, and a slice of cake. Our venue needs a final headcount, so if we don’t hear from you by then, we’ll have to assume you’re not coming and mark you as “unattending.” (And if you show up without RSVPing… well, you might need to bring your own chair and eat cake crumbs. Just sayin’.)
We’re keeping things cozy with our closest friends and family, so we kindly ask that only the guests listed on your invitation attend. As much as we’d love to celebrate with everyone, our space (and BBQ count!) is limited. If your invite doesn’t mention a plus one, we appreciate you coming solo and ready to party! Thanks so much for understanding—it means the world to us!
We adore your little ones—but this celebration is just for the grown-ups (with the exception of a few VIP kiddos). Anyone under the age of 18 we ask to stay at home! There’ll be rowdy music, strong drinks, and some questionable dance moves—so we hope you’ll enjoy a night off! If you need help finding a sitter, let us know—we’re happy to help. And of course, we completely understand if you’re unable to attend because of your little ones. We’ll miss you but will celebrate with you in spirit!
Our wedding will be dressy casual—think polished but comfortable! For the guys: a nice button-down shirt and non-ripped jeans or slacks will do just fine. For the ladies: a dress, jumpsuit, or a nice blouse with dress pants or a skirt is perfect. No need for suits or gowns—just come looking sharp and ready to celebrate!
Our ceremony will begin promptly at 4:30 PM, and we can’t wait to share this moment with you! We kindly ask that guests arrive by 4:00 PM and be seated by 4:15 PM. This allows plenty of time to park, find your seat, and settle in before the big “I do.” (Plus, we’d hate for you to make your entrance at the same time as the bride!) Thank you for being part of our day—we’re so excited to celebrate with you!
We’ll be hosting an open bar—so the drinks are on us, but the hangover’s on you! Our awesome bartender will be slingin’ drinks all night, and tips are always appreciated. If you plan on drinking (and we hope you do!), please carpool, have a designated driver, or arrange a ride. Your safety means the world to us, and we want everyone to have fun and get home safely. Left your car behind? No worries! Vehicles can be picked up the next morning between 8:00 AM and 12:00 PM.
We’re so grateful to have everything we need as we start this new chapter together—what we’re most excited for is making memories with all of you! In place of a traditional registry, we kindly ask for contributions to our honeymoon fund. If you’d like to help send us off on our first adventure as newlyweds, you can find the fund right here on our website. We’ll also have a card box at the wedding if you prefer to give in person. Thank you for your love, support, and for helping us make this time in our lives so special!
Our venue has plenty of parking, so no need to stress about finding a spot! If you plan on enjoying the open bar (cheers to that!), feel free to leave your vehicle overnight. Cars can be picked up the next morning between 8:00 AM and 12:00 PM—no tickets, no towing, just safe celebrating. Please drink responsibly, carpool if you can, and get a ride if needed. We want everyone to have a fun and safe night!
We’re serving up a baked potato bar—but not just any potato bar. We’ll have pulled pork, shredded chicken, and all the fixins so you can load up your spud just the way you like it! Think cheese, sour cream, butter, bacon, chives, veggies, and more. It’s cozy, customizable comfort food at its finest—and perfect fuel for a night full of dancing!
Our wedding will be outdoors—because nothing beats celebrating under the open sky! It may be February, but luckily we’re in sunny Yuma, so the weather should be just right. We’ll have heaters and a fire pit to keep things warm and cozy, but we still recommend bringing a jacket or shawl just in case the desert evening gets a little chilly. Dress comfortably, and we’ll take care of the rest!
We kindly ask that you join us in having an unplugged ceremony, meaning no phones or devices visible during this special moment. We’ve hired a photographer to capture everything beautifully without distractions. Once the reception begins, feel free to take as many photos as you’d like—and don’t forget to share them with us!
We totally understand wanting to share the fun—and we’ll have plenty of it! Feel free to post pictures of the dancing, shenanigans, and all the good times during the reception. That said, we kindly ask that you hold off on posting any photos of the bride, groom, ceremony, first dances, cake cutting, or other big moments until we have a chance to share them ourselves. We’re so excited to see the day through your eyes—but we’d love to be the first to share some of those special memories. Thanks so much for understanding!
