YUP. Super valid question. We are following prevention guidance as stated by the CDC and the venue, which we'll keep you updated on. Quiet Meadow has plenty of outdoor space and will be well ventilated. We're both fully vaccinated and boosted and in accordance with the current CDC guidelines, we ask that if you made the decision not to get vaccinated, you use prevention strategies at all wedding events you attend, which include wearing masks, physical distancing, hand hygiene, and respiratory etiquette. This is again where we stress that if you do not feel comfortable attending for any reason, we 100% understand.
We chose Utah for a couple of reasons: 1. We got engaged at the Corona Arch in Moab in May 2018 2. Have you been to Utah? It's absolutely breathtaking and we can't to celebrate there with you. Give it a shot and we're sure that this trip will completely change your mind about Utah. Great people, delicious food, gorgeous scenery, activities abound, and a burgeoning brewery scene quickly etched this place into our hearts.
We'll be in Moab for some pre-wedding fun then Mapleton to prep and host the wedding. Join us for all, some, or none. Whatever you're comfortable with. We totally understand no matter what you choose.
You may (please make sure to RSVP for them)! However, please note that there will not be any babysitters at the celebration. Also, there will be EXPLICIT music because we enjoy it, so... you have been warned.
That's the point! Let's be honest, if you are able to make it to the wedding, you will have had to travel to do so. That's why we turned this into a vacation to a place you may not have previously considered. That extra day off is going to come in handy.
Don't sweat it. Honestly. We more than understand that this is a huge commitment that we are lucky to even attempt and that we are still in the midst of a pandemic. We certainly don't EXPECT anyone to show up and we are humbled and honored if you do. We don't want anyone to feel uncomfortable in any way if you feel you can't or shouldn't make the trip. We will do our best to post pictures and stories for everyone who is unable to attend and will send out the professional stuff once it's all ready. All we ask is that you send us your love.
Honestly? You really don't. 1. Anyone who shows up will have to travel and will be paying for their own transportation/lodging/activities. It's corny but your presence really is enough. We're honored and thankful that you're celebrating here with us amongst all of the uncertainty. 2. If you're not able to make it, see the previous question. We were serious when we said that all we ask is that you send us your love. 3. We've been together for, like, 10 years; we've accumulated a lot of stuff and don't really need much else. 4. Since some people STILL insist on getting something (ya hooligans), we do have cash funds and traditional registry items...but seriously, nothing is expected.
