Wedding FAQ's

Question

What is the dress code? Do we have to wear specific colors?

Answer

We ask that all guests follow either Semi-Formal to Black Tie (including Optional and Creative) attire. We would prefer everyone adhere to autumn colors (reds, maroons, oranges, yellows, browns, navy blues, dark purples, dark greens, etc.). Wear what makes you feel like a million bucks! Keep in mind that it will be October in New England, so it might be chilly. We will do what we can to keep you all warm, but please dress smart for the weather.

Question

Where is the wedding and reception taking place?

Answer

Both the ceremony and reception will both going to be held at the Tarrywile Park and Mansion. The ceremony will be held outside (if weather permits) and the reception will be held in the mansion.

Question

Why will there be dogs at the wedding?

Answer

The dogs attending the wedding are Service Dogs (SD) that follow under the American Disabilities Act (ADA). These dogs are specifically task-trained to mitigate their owner/handlers' disability(s). Understand that they are working hard to keep their owners safe so that they can enjoy the wedding festivities. Do not distract the SDs in anyway (no touching, talking, interfering, hovering, taking pictures without permission, etc.). Do not ask what the owners' disability is or pester what the SD is for. If you have children, please take the time to teach them that these dogs are working hard and need to stay focused, so they cannot play with the SDs. Please be respectful.

Question

Will there be alcohol?

Answer

Due to the fact that the majority of the guest list, including Molly and Adam, do not/can not drink alcohol as well as the collective cost for a bar, drinks, and liability insurance, we will not be serving alcohol. If this is something that you cannot live without, you can pregame or go to a bar after the reception. Please drink responsibly and do not drink and drive.

Question

Someone asked me to use specific pronouns, what do I do?

Answer

Respect their wishes and refer to them by the pronouns they have given you. We have people from all walks of life here. There are guests that are religious, and guests that are not. There are guests that come from a different culture than what you're used to. There are people that are a part of different communities that others aren't a part of. Regardless of what they wear, how they talk, who they're holding hands with, or what they ask you to call them, be respectful and polite. All of the guests invited are people Adam and Molly deeply care for and want everyone to enjoy themselves. This is not the time to disagree with someone's lifestyles and choices, this is the time to come together in an act of love and compassion.
