FAQs

Question

What is the dress code?

Answer

Our wedding will take place outdoors, surrounded by grass, petals, and heartfelt laughter—so let comfort and celebration guide your wardrobe! Skip the stilettos (the lawn will thank you), and opt for garden-friendly styles like midi dresses with wedges or trousers with a smart jacket. No white, please—it's our turn to wear it. We’re all about personal expression, so feel free to bring your own flair while staying semi-formal and grass-conscious. If what you're wearing makes you feel a little fancy, then it's just right!

Question

When should I RSVP by?

Answer

Question

I have never been to a "gay wedding" before- what should I know?

Answer

We’re thrilled to share this moment with people who mean the world to us. Our wedding is simply a celebration of love—just like any other. You’ll see two newlyweds, two families coming together, and one beautiful commitment. No special instructions required—just show up with open hearts, kind words, and dancing shoes. What matters most to us is your love and respect. Avoid making assumptions about roles or traditions—everything you’ll witness has been chosen with care and joy. If you’re unsure about something, know that kindness and curiosity go a long way. Celebrate this day as you would any wedding: with hugs, tears, laughter, and the loudest cheers for love.
