FAQs
Question
Can I bring my children?
Answer
With respect, our wedding will be an adult-only event, with the exception of children in the wedding party and those who were specifically invited. Please take this opportunity to let your hair down!
Question
Can I bring a plus 1?
Answer
Unfortunately, due to headcount restrictions at our venue, only named invitees and those with a specific guest on their invitation may attend.
Question
What if I don't RSVP, May I still come to the ceremony and/or reception ?
Answer
An RSVP is required. Due to limited reception seating, accommodations cannot be made for those who do not RSVP.
Question
Can I take photographs during the day?
Answer
We will be having an unplugged ceremony, so we kindly ask that you refrain from using phones or cameras during this time. Our professional photographer will capture these special moments. Feel free to take as many photos and videos as you'd like before and after the ceremony!
Question
What about gifts?
Answer
Your presence at our wedding is the greatest gift, so please don’t feel obligated to give anything. However, if you would like to, we have set up a registry on our website, which includes an option to donate to a local animal rescue.
Question
Is there a dress code?
Answer
Semi-Formal Attire – Come get fancy with us! Your snazziest suit & tie, formal separates, dressy jumpsuits, cocktail dresses, and floor-length dresses are all welcome. Please, no jeans or t-shirts. This isn’t the Oscars, so tuxes aren’t necessary! Keep in mind, it’s June in Connecticut, which can mean anything—bring something warm for the evening, just in case! If possible, we kindly ask that you avoid wearing lavender and white.
Question
Is Parking Available at the Venue?
