Question

Are children invited to the wedding?

Answer

For the most part, our wedding will be an adults only celebration. When you RSVP on our website, you'll see the names of everyone invited in your party. Only those listed may attend.

Question

Do you have a wedding registry?

Answer

We have a wedding registry which contains two cash funds. You can find it by clicking the tab that says "Registry" on the home page, or the three little lines on the top right, if you are visiting our website on your phone. We do not have a traditional registry for household items because we currently live in a very small space. While gifts of any kind are not required to celebrate with us, if you would like to give us a gift, we kindly ask that it be in the form of cash, check, or a contribution to one of the aforementioned cash funds.
