Question

When do I need to RSVP by?

Answer

The last day to RSVP is Aug 8th, 2025! If you do not RSVP in time, we will have to mark you as "not attending". We would love celebrating with you; however, we have to provide an exact head count to our Vendors and can't accept late RSVP's.

Question

What if I cant attend?

Answer

We will surely miss you on our big day! Please RSVP "Will not attend." If you have already RSVP'd "Attending", but find that you will not be able to make it, please notify Dorthie 248-472-9438 or Jack 248-838-8620 before Aug 8th 2025!

Question

How do I RSVP?

Answer

There will be an option to RSVP on the wedding website under the RSVP tab! We will also be sending a paper RSVP's with your invite if you prefer to mail the RSVP back to us!

Question

What is the dress code?

Answer

Formal/Cocktail Attire! Let's celebrate in color! Think, floral patterns and pastels!

Question

Can I bring a date?

Answer

We would love to include everyone, but due to the limited space, only guests who received a plus one on their Invitation can bring a guest. Thank you for understanding!

Question

Are kids welcome?

Answer

Invitations will be specific and will include the names of the children who are invited. If you do not see your child's/children's name(s) added to your invite, we invite you to enjoy this as a "night out" for yourself!

Question

Will there be parking?

Answer

There is free parking at BlueBridge Event Centre. Please join us in the Blue Chapel. You can find a sign with both of our names listed, so you know where to go!

Question

Transportation options?

Answer

All recommended lodging options are less than 15 minutes from BlueBridge. We will not be providing shuttles to and from the recommended hotels. We encourage you to use Uber or Lyft to and from the venue. We will be serving alcohol and want to make sure everyone gets back safely!

Question

What time should I arrive?

Answer

The ceremony will begin at 4pm! Please arrive no later than 3:30-3:45pm to allow yourself time to find a seat! Reception will begin around 5pm and end promptly at 11pm!

Question

Can I take pictures during the ceremony?

Answer

We have hired an amazing photographer to capture our day! Although we appreciate you want to snap some pictures, we ask that you honor our "unplugged" ceremony. We will make sure to share lots of pictures with you after the wedding! After the ceremony, please feel free to take as many photos and videos as you would like!

Question

Will the wedding take place in doors or outside?

Answer

Our Ceremony & Cocktail Hour will take place outside, while reception will take place in doors!

Question

Will there be a bar?

Yes! Still working on curating our signature cocktails!
