Question

Is there a dress code?

Answer

If possible, we would love to see you celebrate in semi-formal attire. We understand that isn't the comfiest option, so if not semi-formal attire, please wear all black. We want you to feel comfortable all ceremony and night:)

Question

Can I bring a date?

Answer

Due to limited space, we are only able to accommodate those guests formally invited on your wedding invitation. If you received a plus one, they will appear under your name when you RSVP. Thank you for understanding!

Are kids allowed?

We love your little ones! However, unless stated in your invite, we ask that you leave little ones at home and treat yourself to a date night!

Question

Can I take pictures?

Answer

We are having an "unplugged ceremony" (no phones or cameras). The greatest gift you can give us is being fully present as we say "I do."

After the ceremony, feel free to take as many photos and videos as you'd like!
