FAQs

The Wedding Website of Hayley Butterfield and Tristen Braunstein
If you have any additional questions, need recommendations for additional things to do or explore in the PNW, or anything else, please contact Hayley or Tristen directly.
Question

Is there a dress code?

Answer

Yes, think Cocktail / Garden Party Attire! The venue is a working nursery and has grassy / gravel areas so plan footwear accordingly. We will be primarily outside excluding the reception which will be inside the Vinery. If the weather plays nice, we should get a sunny day, around 70-75 degrees. Any color palette is welcome (excluding white), bonus points for greens, pinks, plums, and browns!

Question

When should I RSVP by?

Answer

Please RSVP by April 17th, 2026. Please know that we may not be able to accommodate late RSVPs.

Question

What time should I arrive at the ceremony?

Answer

Please plan to arrive between 2:30 and 3:15 pm for hors d'oeuvre and drinks. The ceremony will begin at 3:30pm.

Question

Where is the venue located?

Answer

The ceremony and reception will take place at Christianson's Nursery in Mount Vernon, WA. This is located just outside of the small town of La Conner in beautiful Skagit Valley. The entire event will be at the Vinery on the nursery's property, pictured above!

Question

Is there parking for the ceremony or reception?

Answer

Limited parking is available, please plan to carpool whenever possible! Parking is located at the far end of the venue, nearest to the Vinery. If you're at the entrance to the greenhouse/nursery, go to the other end of the lot toward the grey buildings!

Question

Can I bring a date?

Answer

The number of seats allocated for you are noted on your invitation. Please do not bring additional guests to the wedding unless additional seats have been reserved and specified in your invitation, thank you for your understanding!

Question

I have a food allergy, can I make a special request?

Answer

Please notify us directly of any food allergies or dietary restrictions as soon as possible so we can work with our vendors and do our best to accommodate you.
