FAQs
Question
What is the Dress Code?
Answer
We are recommending Garden Attire, meaning fun semi-formal clothes that are appropriate for an outdoor event. No specific colors, but plan to wear something that is comfortable in fall weather.
Question
Is there a hotel block? Do you have a shuttle? Do you have recommended airports?
Answer
Yes, yes, and yes! See travel page for details.
Question
Do I need to rent a car?
Answer
Technically no, but we do recommend it. There is shuttle service to and from the airport to the hotel, and a separate shuttle for the wedding venue, so technically you could not rent a car (see travel page for details), but we do recommend renting a car for your convenience and ability to do things outside of the wedding. Cars can be rented from either airport, or from additional car rental locations in Charlottesville.
Question
Do I have to take the shuttle?
Answer
Yes please! We want you to have fun, not worry about transportation, and have a safe and easy experience traveling to and from our wedding (see travel page for details). Even if you do not stay at the hotel, we recommend you park at the hotel to use the shuttle service. The back roads to the venue are challenging after dark. There is also very limited parking at the venue. *If you do miss the shuttle, you can drive to the venue if need be.*
Question
Are there Ubers/Lyfts/taxis in Charlottesville?
Answer
Yes, but they are not necessarily reliable. They can be used if you do not plan on renting a car, especially to get around town, but you may be waiting awhile for one to come available depending on time.
Question
Is there cellular reception or wifi at the venue?
Answer
No wifi, and very limited cellular reception. This is another reason we chose this venue - to be fully unplugged and present with our guests during this time. This is also another reason we are providing transportation shuttles, so that you do not have to navigate without reception.
Question
Are kids welcome?
Answer
While we love your little ones, we’ve decided to keep our wedding an adults only event. We hope you understand and enjoy the night off as we can’t wait to celebrate with you!
Question
Can I bring a guest?
Answer
Due to limited capacity, unfortunately, not all guests will be able to bring a plus one. If you would like to bring a guest who was not specifically named on your invitation, please let us know well in advance so we can check our numbers. Thank you!
