FAQs
Question
What is the weather like? What if it rains?
Answer
The pacific northwest is an amazing place to live and is very green! However, where there's green, there's rain. Sometimes a lot of rain. At any time of the year. Our wedding is in a month where it could be absolutely beautiful, or an absolute downpour. We suggest to our traveling guests pack at the very least a wind-breaker or rain jacket for while they are in Oregon. We have contingency plans in place should rain arise on our wedding day (which would be good luck anyway, or so we hear!) and we will provide umbrellas for all of our guests.
Question
What's the dress code for your wedding?

Question
Am I allowed to bring a plus one?
Answer
We are not allowing additional plus-ones to our wedding, as we'd like to keep the guests list just to those who know us well. The name of every guest invited to attend is clearly listed on your invitation and no additional guests can be accommodated.
Question
Am I allowed to bring my children?
Answer
We love your children, but due to space restrictions we cannot accommodate your little ones, unless otherwise specified on the invitation (see above FAQ).
Question
Where should we bring/send our wedding gift?
Answer
Your presence at our wedding is the greatest gift we could ask for! If you would like to honor us with a gift, you can have it delivered to our home at [address TBD]. A wedding card box will be at our reception.
Question
Will there be an open bar?
Answer
We will have a traditional cocktail hour, at which time specified drink options will be available. After the cocktail hour, only beer, cider, and wine options will be available.
Question
Am I allowed to take photos at your wedding?
Answer
We kindly ask that you keep our wedding ceremony "unplugged" and refrain from taking any photos or videos at our wedding. We want our guests to truly be in the moment with us during this special day. There will be a time at the ceremony where the officiant will allow a "media minute" for you to take pictures, but for the remainder of the ceremony please refrain from taking any photos or videos. Feel free to take photos and videos at the reception but we would encourage everyone to "live in the moment" as much as possible!
Question
Can I post wedding photos on social media?
Answer
Please respect our privacy and don't share photos of our wedding on social media, as we'd like to make a formal wedding announcement with our professional images.
Question
Where will wedding updates be posted?
Answer
Additional updates or changes that need your attention will appear on our wedding website homepage.
