FAQs

What should I wear?
Answer
The dress code is semi-formal. Have fun with it! Spring colors and florals are encouraged. :) We ask for no jeans or t-shirts.
Question
What is the weather like?
Answer
Big Canoe is beautiful year-round, but especially in the Spring. Expect highs in the 70s and lows in the 50s.
Question
Can I bring a date? Are kids welcome?
Answer
Due to limited capacity at our venue, we had to make hard decisions regarding our guest list. We ask that only those named on the invitation attend. If your invitation says "Name and GUEST", you have a plus one.
Question
Do you have any hotel recommendations?
Answer
Big Canoe is beautiful this time of year and we encourage staying within the neighborhood! Plenty of options can be found through Mountain Vista Rentals (ask about the wedding discount!) or on Airbnb.
Question
Is there transportation to and from the hotels to the ceremony?
Answer
For transportation to and from the airport or the wedding, reach out to Steve LaFontaine at LaFontaine Transportation (contact info can be found under the "Travel & Accommodations" tab). Uber and Lyft are not reliable within Big Canoe. If you plan to drink, make a plan of how to get home safely.
Question
Is there an open bar? Do I need to bring cash?
Answer
There is an open bar! Drinks are on us, but please drink responsibly and tip your bartenders!
Question
Can I take and/or post photos of your wedding on social media?
Answer
We've hired an amazing wedding photographer named Fagan who will be capturing the entire day. We respectfully ask that everyone leave all cameras and cell phones off during the ceremony. Feel free to snap photos during the cocktail hour and reception to share to social media!
