FAQs

Question

Why did we choose Banff?

Answer

Some of our favorite memories together have been made in the Rocky Mountains and while exploring national parks, so getting married in Banff felt right! We’ve actually never been before, so our wedding weekend will also be our very first time experiencing Banff together, which makes it feel even more meaningful. 😇

Question

What is the dress code?

Answer

Funky Formal: Think floor-length gowns or elevated cocktail dresses, and tuxes with neckties or bowties. Embrace the mid-century modern vibe with bold colors, playful prints, sequins, and statement accessories. In October, temperatures can range from 30°F-60°F. Our ceremony will be short, but it will be outside. Fur coats encouraged!

Question

Are kids welcome?

Answer

If your child was listed on the invitation, yes. If not, enjoy the night off! For child care recommendations, please visit myhotelsitter.com or childcarebanff.com. If you would like to coordinate with other wedding guests and are unsure who has children, please text ToniAnn or Cody! We hope you are able to plan childcare ahead of time to celebrate with us for the night.

Question

Can I bring a plus one?

Answer

Due to space constraints, we can only accommodate named guests on the invitation. We appreciate your understanding.

Question

Can I take photos during the ceremony?

Answer

We kindly ask that you join us for an unplugged ceremony. We’ve hired an amazing photographer to capture all the important moments, and we'd love for her to be able to do so without needing to edit around phones in the aisle. :)

Question

What is the currency?

Answer

Canadian dollars (CAD), which is roughly 70% of the USD. In other words, your US dollar goes further in Canada. Yay!

Question

Will ToniAnn be taking Cody's last name?

Answer

ToniAnn is formally keeping her last name, but we’re happily answering to Mr. & Mrs. Hooker anytime. 🙂

Question

How did we meet?

Answer

We met in passing in 2013/2014 because our sorority and fraternities did a lot of social events and parties together. We reconnected at the Widespread Panic 2018 New Years Eve run where we fittingly spent set break talking about politics and the state of the world. After that weekend, ToniAnn slid into Cody's DMs and the rest is history.

Question

Who designed your website/all your stationary?
