FAQs

Question

What about COVID?

Answer

We ask that guest wear masks and social distance as much as possible. We will have a sticker system to help each other recognize who requests more social distancing and who doesn’t.

Question

Is there a dress code?

Answer

The wedding party will be in formal attire, which guests are welcome to also dress up in as well, but the official say is semi-formal. On that note, please don’t stress about what you wear too much - we just want you there! But also, please don’t be that girl who shows up in white to a wedding 👀

Question

Can I bring a date?

Answer

If your invitation indicates that you have a plus one, then by all means please bring your date. If you don’t have that indication, then please respect our wishes as extra “surprise” people will not be planned for in budget or any other means of planning. Plus ones are reserved for those we know, as this is a personal event - and having strangers about isn’t our forte.

Question

Can I bring my own alcohol?

Answer

No, due to the venue contract and liability rules, all alcohol must be provided by us. If you have a preference for a certain wine/beer/liquor then please let us know and we can arrange for you to bring it and we supply it to the bartender. Whatever you arrange to have will be for you only and will not be distributed to other guests - only you or whoever else you have said it is for. If you *don’t* have a preference, don’t worry because there will still be a selection of alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks to choose from. Also, please respect the rules of the hired bartender that they must follow, cutoffs are cutoffs, ID’s are checked, and underage drinking will not be allowed. We will have a “menu” of the drink options for all guests to pick from and there will be something for everyone!

Question

Can I take photos on my phone during the ceremony?

Answer

No, please refrain from cellphone use during the ceremony, as many are unaware that they may be blocking the hired photographers moment they are trying to capture. Pictures of hands holding phones out in the aisle aren’t a great shot and we’d like to get the pictures we are paying someone for. So please just relax and enjoy the ceremony with us - but during the reception feel free to use your phones and take pictures then!

Question

What should we gift the couple?

Answer

Since we have been living together for a number of years now, we have already acquired many and most things that make up a home. We ask for money over anything to support our honeymoon fund and future house savings.

Question

Will kids be invited?

Answer

No, this will be an adults only wedding. If you have children, please make sure to have care plans for them set up in advance. If this is a complication for you we are sorry for that, but please respect our wishes and let us know if you have any questions.

Question

Will the bride be changing her last name?

Answer

No, I love my name and wish to keep it! 😁 On fact, the groom will be taking the brides last name instead. We understand this is not traditional, but we by far are not a traditional couple. Expect nothing traditional about this event, as we plan to turn it upside down and make it our own! Join in on that fun and enjoy the night!

Question

I have a question that isn’t addressed here - can I bother you guys about it?

Answer

YES, bother away! Please contact either the bride or groom through whatever means you have (email, text, call, Facebook, etc.) and we are happy to help.
