We did reschedule our wedding from the original date in June 2020. Our new date is Friday, October 9th, 2020. Please contact us directly at wolfewedding2020@gmail.com to ask further questions pertaining to our wedding.
We will have masks for you! We had them printed up with our names and wedding date on them as a takeaway for everyone but they can be functional at the wedding as well. The venue is acting almost as a restaurant in terms of mask requirements. They are not requiring them at the tables, or when you are in the ballroom dancing. They do ask we wear one in the hallways when we are back and forth to the restrooms or going to one of the bars out there, but other than that the venue isn't requiring them at all times. The ballroom is very large and there will be plenty of opportunity to distance ourselves if people are not as comfortable.
We met during college while we were both working for the same dining hall on campus. Technically we met when I (Jennifer) was Dustin's boss, but he doesn't like when I bring that up. So we just like to share the story that Dustin was a hiring manager and Jennifer was a training manager and we just got to know each other for two years working together.
Target and Bed, Bath, and Beyond. You can use the registry tab on this website to go to those pages. In all honesty, we have lived together for a while and we do have most things people need in life. There are only a few things that I really "need" and a few things that we already have but would like to get a new one of, so these registries were tough in those regards. I didn't even want to make one, but all of the wedding books tell me that I should have them in case people want to get a gift. If you do not want to bring a gift, we also have a honeymoon fund on our registry for Bed, Bath, and Beyond if you would like to donate to that. Or if you would just like to bring a nice card with some words of wisdom for us we would appreciate it. (Jennifer's mom would especially appreciate that because she found a very adorable card holder for all of the cards so fill it up for Vicki!)
September 18th, 2020 is when we ask for your final answer, whatever that answer may be. This allows us to let the venue and caterers know an accurate number for seating and food. With COVID19 we understand people may wait a bit before RSVP-ing because they aren't sure what their plan of action will be during these next few months. We understand that. If we have not received your RSVP by the above date we will try to reach out to you, just so we can get an accurate headcount.
The ceremony is scheduled for 5:30 pm. The venue will start letting people sit around 5pm. Please keep in mind that there is construction currently on the highway in this area of Columbus and the it will be the start of rush hour. Please plan accordingly to arrive early in case you get caught up in traffic. We have been stuck in this very situation before and ended up being late to a wedding because of it. Sorry Chris and Michelle...
Technically there is no dress code. The only item we will not let you in if you are wearing would be a wedding dress as that ensemble is reserved for Jennifer. We will just be happy that you are there with us celebrating. If you are like Jennifer however and are always concerned about being under/overdressed, we would recommend wearing a dress, skirt, or dress pants/khakis based on the look of the venue.
If you would like to bring a date, by all means you are welcome to. Please just put their name on the RSVP card so we know they are attending.
If your kids are part of our immediate family then of course we want them to come. If your kids are older kids that we have been knowing and they would like to attend, we would be happy to have them. Kids that are younger however are ones that their parents will need to make a decision on whether or not to bring them. We love kids, but kids do not always love weddings. They can be a bit boring for small children and often times parents aren't able to have a good time themselves if they have to leave early or tend to their child most of the night. We want our friends/family who are parents to be able to enjoy and let loose a bit at our wedding and this may be most achievable childless. If you do not have childcare and the only way you can attend our wedding is to come with your child then of course we would rather have you there. But if grandma has been asking lately to spend time with her grandchild, tell her to pencil that in for October 9th. :)
Many of our family members and friends have a food allergy or are vegetarian/vegan. We have spoken about this to the chef for our venue. He has assured me that they have seen it all and can do it all. Please make us aware of any special dietary needs/wants on the RSVP card. You can use the back of the card if you need more room to list out everyone in the party.
