FAQs
Question
How do I RSVP?
Answer
You can click the RSVP page and RSVP at any time. We will include a paper RSVP with the invite if you prefer to mail your RSVP back to us!
Question
What if I don't RSVP in time?
Answer
If you do not RSVP by August 26, 2026, you will be marked as "not attending". We would love celebrating with you; however, we have to provide an exact guest count to our vendors and cannot accept late RSVP's. (This will mean you are not allowed to show up to our special day. There will be no seating, food, or drink accommodations for you.)
Question
What should I do if I cannot make it?
Answer
You will definitely be missed! If you cannot attend our wedding, please indicate "Will not attend" on your RSVP so we can plan accordingly. If you have already RSPV'd "Attending", but find that you will not make it, please notify Erica or Jake as soon as you are aware.
Question
Can I bring a date/plus one?
Answer
Due to finalizing numbers, we are only able to accommodate those guests formally invited on your wedding invitation. Your invite will be made out to "(Your name) & Guest" if a plus one has been given to you. If you have any questions, please let Erica or Jake know. Thank you for understanding!
