FAQs

Question

What’s the dress code?

Answer

Summer Cocktail. Sundresses, button-downs, or anything a little nicer than everyday wear. The ceremony is outdoors, and the reception is in the Barn, so leave the stilettos and dress shoes with no grip at home.

Question

Can I bring a plus-one?

Answer

If your invitation includes a guest by name then yes, we’d love to have them join. If not, we’re keeping the wedding on the smaller side and are only able to include those listed on the invite. If you’re unsure, feel free to reach out, we’re happy to clarify.

Question

Are kids welcome?

Answer

Yes! This is a family-friendly weekend and so long as they’re invited, we’d love to see your little ones there.

Question

Are dogs welcome?

Answer

Jackson is very dog-friendly, and most hotels, including Whitney’s, allow pets. You’re welcome to bring your dog for the weekend if your lodging permits it. That said, we kindly ask that you do not bring dogs to the ceremony, cocktail hour, or reception. Our dog, Harvey, will be part of the ceremony, but since animals can be unpredictable, we want to keep the event calm, focused, and stress-free for everyone. Thanks for understanding and for keeping the guest list to the humans.

Question

Where should I stay?

Answer

The most convenient option is The Inn at Whitney’s, where the ceremony and reception will take place (and where we’re staying too). If that fills up or you're looking for other options, check out Whitney’s sister properties, which are all within five minutes: Christmas Farm Inn & Spa: just up the hill, with both indoor and outdoor pools, spa services, and The Backyard restaurant and Mistletoe Pub. The Inn at Thorn Hill: located roughly 2 miles away; an adult‑only retreat featuring fine wine, porch dining, and a quieter, more intimate vibe. All three properties share amenities: indoor/outdoor pools, restaurants, pubs, and more, with a complimentary shuttle that links them together.

Question

Will there be parking at the venue?

Answer

Yes, there’s free parking right on-site at the Inn at Whitney’s.

Question

Will there be food and drinks?

Answer

Absolutely! We’ll have appetizers, dinner, drinks and dessert. Come hungry!

Question

What’s the weather like in Jackson that time of year?

Answer

Days are usually mild, nights can get cool, 70s by day, 50s at night. Layers are your friend, especially if you’re hanging out by the fire or staying out late.

Question

Can I take pictures during the ceremony?

Answer

We’d love for everyone to just be in the moment with us. Our photographer will be capturing everything, so no need to worry about taking photos, just relax and enjoy the ceremony. We'd love for you to take as many pictures as you'd like during every other part of the weekend!

Question

Do you have a registry?

Answer

We don’t have a traditional registry. Your presence is truly the greatest gift to us. If you’d like to give something, we’d be grateful for anything that supports our future together.

Question

What if I have a dietary restriction?

Answer

Let us know when you RSVP and we’ll make sure you’re all set.

Question

What about the morning after?

Answer

We’re planning a casual Monday morning drop-in breakfast at J-Town Deli between 9 am and 10 am. It’s nothing formal and everyone would cover their own breakfast, but if you’re still in town, we’d love to see you before the weekend wraps up.
