FAQs
Question
Can I bring a plus one?
Answer
Although we would love for more people to come we are already at capacity for the amount of people allowed at the overlook. That being said no plus ones unless explicitly invited.
Question
What’s for dinner?
Answer
We will be getting 12 bones barbecue for dinner. There will be brisket, pulled pork, and plenty of sides!
Question
Is there a dress code?
Answer
There is not a specific dress code. We have picked a color scheme so everyone looks cohesive in photos. (Navy blue, emerald green, maroon…) if you’d like a photo of the colors we can send them your way. We ask that everyone dress nice for the ceremony, please no jeans!
Question
Why is there so much time between the ceremony and reception?
Answer
We are doing this so everyone has time to head back to their hotels/airbnbs to get changed in to warm comfy clothes for dinner. We are having a laid back reception eating, playing some lawn games, listening to music and just hanging out. We plan on having a fire with s’mores.
Question
Can I take photos at the ceremony?
Answer
No. We know that everyone would like to have photos for themselves but we will have a professional photographer taking pictures at the ceremony. We kindly ask you to not have your phones out as we want everyone to be present in the moment.
Question
Will there be music?
Answer
There will be background music playing at the reception. If you have any suggestions please feel free to text either of us.
Question
Where is the ceremony?
Answer
Buck spring gap is an overlook. When looking it up in Google maps it will be labeled buck spring gap. It will be to your left when going up the mountain. There is another area called buck spring gap overlook that is a picnic area slightly up the mountain on the right but we are having the ceremony at buck spring gap.
Question
Where is the reception?
Answer
