Question

Are you registered? Where?

Answer

We are fortunate enough to have practically everything that we need, so we are not registered anywhere for physical gifts. If you would like to gift us with anything, we prefer a contribution to our honeymoon. You can contribute in person or by going to the Registry page.

Question

Can I take photos/video of the ceremony?

Answer

While we understand the desire to capture the moment from your perspective, we would greatly appreciate if phones/cameras are not used during the ceremony to allow our photographer to capture the moment free of screens and flashes. There will be plenty of opportunity before and after the ceremony for guests to capture photos.

Question

Is there parking for the wedding?

Answer

Plenty of parking will be available, however carpooling is greatly encouraged.

Question

Are there any other events that I should know about around the wedding?

Answer

As we get closer to the date, we will plan a brunch for the day after the wedding. Details will be shared as they are available.

Question

Do you have any hotel recommendations?

Answer

Neither of us have personally used any nearby hotels or cabin rentals, so we cannot make recommendations from experience. However, there are many options to choose from, some of which are listed on the Travel page. Please keep in mind that much of the area suffers from a lack of cell phone signal/internet connectivity while booking any accommodations. Please confirm with the business/host on wifi availability before booking.

Question

Can I bring a date?

Answer

As much as we understand the desire to bring a date to the wedding, we request that only those who's names are specified on your RSVP attend.

Question

Will there be signage to help locate the wedding?

Answer

Yes! While GPS is largely reliable for finding the address, we will have a sign at the road to help circumvent any possible confusion. (Yes, it's a long driveway. Yes, you should just keep driving up until you see the wedding.)

Question

What's the best way to get to/from the wedding?

Answer

Personal or rental vehicles are highly recommended as Uber/Lyft is extremely limited & often unavailable in the area.
