Question

Are Kids Invited?

Answer

Due to limited space at the venue, we have decided to make our wedding day an adults-only event. This is to ensure all guests, especially those who are parents, can fully enjoy the occasion! We hope this advanced notice means you are still able to come and celebrate with us.

Question

The venue address for the wedding will be given to those who RSVP that they are attending.

Question

What Time Should I Arrive for the Ceremony?

Answer

Please arrive to the venue at least 30 minutes prior to the ceremony starting to allow time to find parking and to walk down to the ceremony site. The ceremony will begin promptly, and anyone who is late will not be able to join as to avoid any interruptions. If you happen to be late, please wait by the reception area.

Question

Can I Bring a Date?

Answer

To accommodate all guests properly within the venue's capacity, we only have space for the guests that are formally invited and listed on sent invitations. If you receive a plus one, it will appear under your name when you RSVP. Thank you for understanding!

Question

What is a Tea Ceremony?

Answer

As a way to honor my grandparents, my parents, and my Iu Mien Culture, we have decided to have a Tea Ceremony after the formal ceremony. This is also a way for the Bride & Groom to greet all guests who are in attendance. In the Iu Mien tradition, serving tea to all guests who attend is a very traditional propriety. It is a significant way to show respect for those who traveled near and far. All guests will form a line, the guests will go one by one toward the table where the Bride & Groom stand, and they will take a cup of tea. After the guests drink the tea, gifts for the Bride & Groom will be presented, and a gift will also be presented to the guest.

Question

Question

What is the Dress Code?

Answer

We'd love to see all of our friends & family get dressed up for our big day! That being said, don't feel like you need to buy a tuxedo or a designer dress, but please try to shy away from jeans and a t-shirt! It is an outdoor ceremony and reception in late September, so pick your outfits according to the weather!
