FAQs

Question

If I'm not vaccinated but I have a negative PCR test within 72 hours can I still attend?

Answer

Unfortunately no, we are asking that guests are all fully vaccinated if they are over the age of 12. We encourage folks to also get tested prior to the wedding on top of being vaccinated. We recognize this might feel over the top to some people, but would rather put safety precautions we feel comfortable with in place for the big day. New Orleans currently requires proof of vaccination to enter any kind of indoor event or restaurant space so please bring your vaccine card, a photo of it, or a licensed app that provides that information.

Question

Do I have a plus one? I'm not dating anyone?

Answer

We want to recognize the importance and value of all relationships, not just romantic ones! If there is a special person (romantic or otherwise) you want to bring we would love to have them as well. I have frequently appreciated having my safety-blanket-Taylor at formal-ish events. If you do not want to take advantage of the plus one option that is also absolutely fine and we're so excited to celebrate with you.

Question

Is there a hotel room block?

Answer

We looked into providing blocked hotel rooms but decided against it. Everyone has a different preference, budget, need, and time frame they are planning on staying and we don't want to put added pressure on anyone to conform. If you are lost and unable to find a place you would like to stay please check the "travel" tab, there are a number of good options there and even more unlisted that are searchable throughout the city. If you're unable to find anywhere that fits your budget please reach out and we can see if we can find a place that will accommodate you within our social network.

Question

What should I wear?

Answer

We will be pretty fancy-schmancy in typical wedding fashion, but not necessarily formal. We would love for folks to dress up with us! Please wear what you are comfortable with and able to move in. There are no specific colors, themes, or requirements on clothing.

Question

Should I rent a car?

Answer

This answer is totally up to you! New Orleans is a really small city and very walkable. If you want to go outside of your walkable range Uber and Lyft are great options. Parking is generally pretty easy on side streets here, but for the wedding we are not going to have many parking options and instead are asking that people carpool and find on street parking or use rideshare options. We would like to reduce the amount of drinking and driving happening in any way possible!

Question

I don't feel safe/comfortable/able to travel, will you hate me forever for not coming to your wedding?

Answer

ABSOLUTELY NOT. Having you there would be great, you were invited because you're special to us! However, we recognize that the world is a terribly uncertain place. Things happen, stuff comes up, and you being here is not a make-or-break friendship moment. We know you love us! You wouldn't have made the list otherwise :)

Question

If I can't come in person but still want to celebrate with you how can I participate?

Answer

We will live stream the ceremony for those who are unable to attend. The link will be provided closer to the date.
