While we love your little ones, our wedding is going to be an adults-only event so that everyone can relax and enjoy the evening. We appreciate you making arrangements ahead of time and leaving the kids at home so you can celebrate with us.
Due to limited parking space at the venue, Leland and I plan to try to coordinate carpooling from the hotel.

If it has a battery, we ask you either leave it in your purse/pocket or in the car. We welcome guests to take pictures on their personal devices at the reception, just please remember to be conscious of our photographer and videographer!
You can reach out via text to Leland or Hunter to let us know of your dietary needs!
