Question

How do I know who is invited in my party?

Answer

Once you start the RSVP process, members of your party will be listed including any plus ones that have been allocated to you. You will then have the opportunity to fill in their name and confirm each person's RSVP status.

Question

Can I bring a plus one?

Answer

Due to the limited capacity of our venue, we are unable to accommodate plus ones unless specifically indicated on your RSVP (See FAQ 2). We want everyone to share in the celebration and this will ensure that we are surrounded by our close friends and family. We hope you understand!

Answer

Please plan to arrive 30 minutes prior to the start of the ceremony, as we will begin promptly at 4:00PM.

Can I take pictures throughout the ceremony/reception?

Answer

In order to ensure we are all fully present, we will be having an "unplugged" ceremony. We request that you turn off/silence all phones during the ceremony.

During the reception, please feel free to take as many pictures as you would like and please tag us with #just4jhil!
