FAQs
Question
Are children invited?
Answer
While we love your little ones, our wedding is strictly an adults-only occasion with an exception to those children in the wedding. We appreciate you making arrangements ahead of time and leaving the kids at home so you can celebrate with us!
Question
Can I bring a date?
Answer
In order to keep our wedding as intimate as possible, only the guests formally invited on your wedding invitation will be accommodated. If you received a plus one they will appear when you RSVP.
Question
What should I wear? Is there a dress code?
Answer
We ask that all guests wear semi-formal or cocktail attire. Pastel colors are encouraged, but not mandatory. Ladies, please refrain from wearing colors reserved for the bride — white, ivory, or champagne tones. Thank you!
Question
Can we take our own pictures + videos throughout the day?
Answer
Our ceremony will be unplugged. For this, we ask all phones and cameras to be put away and there to be no pictures or videos taken! You are more than welcome to take photos + videos throughout the course of the reception! This is such a special day for us and we have the most amazing photography team documenting our entire day, that way you are able to take it all in, celebrate, and be in the moment with us!
