Question
Can I bring my children?
Answer
If your children are listed on the invitation, you are more than welcome to bring them (or make it a little date night)! However, please be aware that we will be serving alcoholic beverages and childcare will not be provided. We only ask that you keep them secure during important moments such as the ceremony or first dance to prevent them from getting hurt or causing a disruption.
Question
Can I take pictures?
Answer
We are having an "unplugged" ceremony. This means we are asking all phones and other devices be put away and on silent/turned off during our ceremony so that all guests can be 100% present with us during this time. After the ceremony, during cocktail hour/the reception, taking photos (and sharing them with us) is encouraged! We promise to share our professional ceremony photos with you as soon as possible.
