FAQs

Question

When should I RSVP by?

Answer

We are requesting RSVPs no later than 5/8/26, but please RSVP at your earliest convenience so that we have a reliable guest count for our caterer.

Question

Can I bring a date or a friend with me?

Answer

Please limit your guests to the number of people listed on your invitation. While we would love for all of our guests to be able to bring a date or friend, we are already at capacity at our venue.

Question

Are kids welcome?

Answer

With the exception of kids in our wedding party and immediate family, we have chosen to have an adults-only wedding. We sincerely hope that parents with little ones will understand and that you will allow us to be part of your date night.

Question

How do I RSVP?

Please RSVP using our wedding website. Click “RSVP” in the navigation menu at the top of the website. Enter your first and last name in the box exactly as it appears on your invitation. Also, please RSVP for each guest included in your invitation. Finally, please list any dietary restriction that we should be aware of (if any) in the box indicated.

I have a food allergy / dietary restriction. Can I make a special request?

Answer

If you have a food allergy or other dietary restrictions, please enter your comments / requests when completing your RSVP under the "RSVP" tab above. When you click on the tab and enter your name, a question will appear that will allow you to communicate your requests with us.

Question

Is there parking at the ceremony / reception?

Answer

Yes. There is free parking at the venue.

Question

What time should I arrive at the ceremony?

Answer

The ceremony starts at 4:30 pm. You can arrive at the ceremony beginning around 4:00 pm. We request that you be seated no later than 4:20 pm to allow the wedding party to take their places.

Question

Is there a dress code?

Answer

Our wedding ceremony / reception is at Boerner Botanical Gardens. Please wear semi-formal attire with a garden vibe--flowers, pastels, etc. Ladies, feel free to wear dresses, skirts, or pantsuits. Guys, you can wear a suit and tie if you choose or a button-down collar and slacks. Regardless of what you wear, please dress appropriately for summer in Wisconsin!

Question

Do you have any hotel recommendations?

Answer

Yes. Please click on the "Travel" tab above for several hotel recommendations in the area. Additionally, we have reserved a block of rooms at the Hampton Inn and Suites in Franklin, WI from July 9th through July 12th. We highly encourage you to book your room 30 days before the wedding as the room block rate expires on 6/12/26. You can either call the hotel at (414) 427-4800, press option 0, and ask for the "Eshleman/Little" wedding, or, if you prefer to book online, go to the "Travel" tab above and click on the "View" button under Hampton Inn.

Question

Is there transportation between the hotels and the wedding venue?

Answer

Since the ceremony and the reception are both at the same location and since out-of-town guests likely will stay at different hotels, we did not arrange transportation to and from the hotels. If you need to arrange transportation, please consider either renting a car at the airport or using Uber or Lyft.
