FAQs

Question

When should I RSVP?

Answer

Please RSVP by March 15, 2026 - or as soon as you can so we can best plan for your presence.

Question

Is this an indoor or outdoor wedding?

Answer

The ceremony will be held in an open meadow. We have a rain tent on retainer just in case. Our reception will be under a open-air tent in the woods. No parts of the wedding will be fully indoors. Plan accordingly. Check the weather ahead of the wedding in case you'll want an umbrella, sun protection, or a light jacket. *please also note, there is very limited cell phone reception on property*

Question

What is the dress code?

Answer

Cocktail Attire The evening will transition from "springtime cocktail party in the meadow" to "secret dinner in the forest" vibes. Think nice suits, cocktail dresses, fancy jumpsuits, button-ups and a tie, etc. Colors are moss green, plum, walnut, sunsets and dark florals. Reach out if you have questions. NOTE: You will be walking on gravel paths and in a meadow. Choose footwear accordingly (ie: flats, wedges, or other shoes that won't sink into the earth).

Question

Is there transportation to and from the hotels to the ceremony?

Answer

YES! In fact this is the only way to get to/from the wedding venue. A shuttle service will be provided between the Hampton Inn & Suites (Pittsboro) and Annelise Island (venue). See "Travel" tab for more information.

Question

Is there parking for the ceremony or reception?

Answer

No. See "Travel" tab for info about the shuttle.

Question

Are kids allowed?

Answer

No. Children will not be allowed at the ceremony or reception. Please let us know ASAP if help with childcare will enable you to celebrate with us.

Question

Do you have a registry?

Answer

No. Your time and effort to join us at our wedding is the only gift we wish for. However, if you insist on giving us something, we would be touched if you make a donation in our honor to one of three organizations that are important to us: Bean Voyage, Equality NC, or the Haw River Assembly.

Question

How far are we from Raleigh or Durham?

Answer

The wedding is in Pittsboro, about 45 minutes away from downtown Raleigh or Durham. You are welcome to explore these cities during your trip, but plan to catch the shuttle to the wedding at the hotels in Pittsboro at 4:00pm on the wedding day.
