Question
Are masks required?
Answer
Yes, we are requiring all guests, regardless of vaccination status, to wear a facemask (preferably N95 or KN95) at our wedding except when eating or drinking. We understand that local regulations may not currently require facemasks, however we have chosen to enforce this at our wedding due to the bride's recent ICU hospitalization for COVID-related respiratory failure. We will provide disposable masks for all guests and greatly appreciate your understanding in this matter.
Question
What if I am sick on your big day?
Answer
Simply put, please stay home if you are sick with any kind of illness. While we appreciate you wanting to spend the day with us we do ask that if you have any type of infection, especially COVID-19 symptoms, or have been exposed to COVID-19 within two weeks of our wedding, to please stay home. The bride and several guests are immunocompromised and could be put at great risk if exposed. Thank you for understanding.
