FAQs

Many of your questions should be answered here! If your question is not listed, please email Brad & Erinn at thewoods1607@gmail.com. We will respond to your question as soon as possible!
Question

What is the RSVP deadline?

Answer

Please RSVP no later than July 1st. We need final head counts to make sure our vendors are prepared and you RSVPing on time helps the process go smoothly!

Question

Do I have to RSVP even if you know I'm coming?

Answer

YES! Everyone, including the bridal party, needs to RSVP by July 1st so we can provide final guest counts to our vendors. We’ll send one friendly reminder as the deadline approaches to anyone who hasn’t responded. After that, we won’t be able to follow up individually, and anyone who has not RSVP’d by July 1st will be marked as a “no.”

Question

Can I bring a plus one?

Answer

Due to limited space, we are only able to accommodate those guests formally invited on your wedding invitation. If you received a plus one they will appear under your name when you RSVP. Thank you for understanding!

Question

Are kids welcome?

Answer

RSVPs are specific and will include the names of the children who are invited. If you do choose to bring your children, please know this event is catered to adults and you will need to watch your children closely.

Question

I have a food allergy, can I make a special request?

Answer

Yes! In the RSVP, there is a question asking about any dietary restrictions. Please include those requests there. Our food vendor has gluten free, dairy free, and nut free options.

Question

What is the dress code?

Answer

Semi-Formal Attire: We kindly ask guests to dress in semi-formal attire—polished and elevated, but not black tie. For women: cocktail, midi, or maxi dresses, or a dressy top with a skirt or tailored pants. For men: dress shirts with slacks, with an optional blazer or jacket. Please no jeans, chinos, or athletic wear.

Question

Are there any colors I should avoid?

Answer

As we celebrate our special day, we kindly ask guests to avoid wearing white or any similar light shades (such as ivory, cream, or champagne). These colors are reserved for the bride.

Question

What time should I arrive at the venue?

Answer

The doors to the venue open at 3:30 pm and the ceremony will start promptly at 4:00 pm. We would suggest giving yourself enough time to park and get situated to avoid any interruptions to the ceremony.

Question

Is there parking for the ceremony or reception?

Answer

Parking at the venue may be limited. Street parking and one private lot for guests will be available day of. Uber or Lyft are suggested if you are not staying close to the venue and will be consuming alcohol.

Question

What do I do if my child is being disruptive during the ceremony?

Answer

We love your little ones and we understand they are growing and learning little people. To help us keep the ceremony intimate and enjoyable for everyone, we kindly ask that if your child becomes disruptive, you quietly step out of the ceremony space. Our venue has a small room reserved for parents and breastfeeding mothers who may need a private moment away. We truly appreciate your understanding and help in creating a meaningful experience for all guests.

Question

Can I take pictures/videos during the ceremony?

Answer

We are having an "unplugged ceremony" (no phones or cameras). The greatest gift you can give us is being fully present as we say "I do". We have hired professionals to capture this moment for us and we promise to share our photos as soon as we receive them. After the ceremony, feel free to take as many photos and videos as you'd like! And send them to us!

Will the wedding take place indoors or outdoors?

Answer

The whole event will take place indoors. There will be some outdoor access, but no major events will take place outside.

Question

What should I do if I can't make it?

Will there be a bar?

Yes! Beer, wine, and spirits will be available. Final details to come...
