Frequently Asked Questions

Question

What time should I arrive to the ceremony?

Answer

We strongly suggest arriving by 4:45 P.M. to be settled into your seat prior to the start of the ceremony. Due to the location of the venue please anticipate traffic, and give yourself enough time to arrive prior to the hard start of the ceremony time of 5:00 P.M. The wedding will start with or without you and it would be a bummer for you to miss us exchange our vows! Once the ceremony has started guests will have to wait to join the celebration once cocktail hour begins.

Question

Can I bring a plus one?

Answer

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

Question

When is the RSVP deadline?

Answer

Please RSVP by June 9, 2023. We will be unable to accommodate guests on our wedding day who do not RSVP prior to June 9th.

Question

What should I wear?

Answer

We'd love to see our family and friends get dressed up for our big day! Dress code is formal-black tie optional. We would love if our guests wear bright colors. Please refrain from wearing white, silver, blush, or gold.

Question

Do you have a registry?

Answer

We would greatly appreciate a contribution to our cash funds listed on our Zola registry to help us set up for our future, and to be able to begin making memories as we start this new chapter of our lives. There will also be a card box available on our wedding day for guests that prefer to give cards. Additionally there are a few gifts listed on our Zola and Amazon registry.

Question

Will the events be outside or indoors?

Answer

Our ceremony will take place on a grassy field, and our cocktail hour will take place on the patio overlooking the Occoquan river. Our reception will be indoors where we will dance the night away.

Question

Are phones allowed during the ceremony?

Answer

Fahad and Rachel have selected a wonderful photographer and videographer to capture all of the moments of the night. We kindly ask that you do not use any of your electronic devices during the ceremony to be able to be fully present as we say "I do". Once our pictures and wedding film are ready we promise to share them with our guests as soon as we receive them. After the ceremony, feel free to take as many pictures and videos as you would like!

Question
