Question

What happens if it rains?

Answer

This will be a rain or shine event and it might get muddy in the case it does rain, so keep your eye on the weather. If it is raining on the day of, then we ask you to dress accordingly and get excited about dancing in the rain! The ceremony will be outside, unless it rains, in which case the ceremony and reception will both be hosted underneath the tent. Keep in mind: There will be no artificial floor beneath you and the earth under the reception tent. Our bathroom facilities will be located approximately 40 yards from the reception tent, so you will need to walk through the elements whenever nature calls.

Answer

The attire is semi-formal. Ladies: DO NOT wear heels. The ceremony and reception will be on grass. Wedges, flats, or cute sandals are suitable options. As the bride, I will be barefoot, and welcome you - at your own discretion - to do the same. There is a gravel drive-way, which you will need shoes for. Please feel free to be barefoot with me! Gentlemen: you are welcome to wear a suit jacket, but suit jackets are not required!
