FAQs

Question

WHAT TIME SHOULD I ARRIVE AT THE CEREMONY ?

Answer

We'll be starting the ceremony promptly at 4:30pm. We'd be so grateful if you could arrive 15-30 minutes early to get settled and seated. We'd love nothing more than to see your smile (on time) when we walk down the aisle.

Question

ARE KIDS AND PLUS ONES WELCOME ?

Answer

While we would love to have everyone, we're keeping things intimate and personal. We hope you'll understand that invitations are extended to only to those named including children. We truly can't wait to celebrate with you!

Question

IS THERE A DRESS CODE ?

Answer

We’re going for semi-formal, so think cocktail dresses, jumpsuits, or skirts and blouses for the ladies, and suits or dress pants with a nice shirt for the guys (a tie or jacket if you’re feeling fancy). Basically, dress up a bit, skip the black-tie, and wear something that makes you feel like celebrating with us!

Question

WILL THE WEDDING BE INDOORS OR OUTDOORS ?

Answer

Our ceremony will be outside under a beautiful oak tree with a lovely reception to follow in a barn on site of the venue as well

Question

WILL THERE BE AN OPEN BAR ?

Answer

We will be serving beer and wine throughout the evening for our guests to enjoy! Please note that liquor will not be available, as the venue requires special permits we will not be obtaining. We appreciate your understanding and can’t wait to raise a glass with you!

Question

DO I NEED TO RSVP ?

Answer

Yes, please! Formal invitations will follow our save the dates, and each invite will include RSVP details. We can’t wait to celebrate with you, so be sure to let us know once you receive your invitation!

Question

CAN I TAKE PHOTOS DURING THE CEREMONY?

Answer

We’re having an unplugged ceremony, so no phones or cameras, please! Our photographers have it covered, and we promise to share the gorgeous shots after. Just relax, be present, and enjoy the moment with us!

Question

SHOULD I BRING CASH ?

Answer

If you’d like! The bartenders will love your tips, and we’ll also have a “Honeymoon Fund” bucket to help get us to South Africa so Janelle can show off her new husband to the rest of her family. So if you’ve got a few extra dollars after tipping for cocktails, you just might be buying us our plane tickets or snacks too.
