Question

What should I wear?

Answer

Formal attire is recommended. Our colors are jewel tones. We would love to see everyone break out their deep purples, reds, and greens or bright pinks, yellows, or blues. Think of gemstone hues: sapphire, ruby, emerald, etc.

Question

Can I have my phone out or take my own photos during the ceremony?

Answer

NO. The ceremony will only last about 15-20 minutes. You may not have your phone out during the ceremony. There is a paid, professional photographer that will be taking photos during the ceremony. Photographers are a large investment and we do not want this to go to waste by having a cell phone or device blocking important moments. You can either silence your phone and keep it tucked away or leave it in your vehicle. We do not want any of the ceremony's professional photos to be blocked by your device, nor do we want your device to go off during the ceremony. If you would like pictures of the ceremony, we will gladly share them with you.

Question

Why are phones not allowed during the ceremony?

Answer

This is to prevent devices from potentially blocking the professional photographers camera and taking away important memories. For example, Layne and Katie only get to experience their first kiss as husband and wife once, they do not get to redo that moment. We please ask that you silence and put away devices so these once in a lifetime moments are not blocked by your device.

Question

If I can't have my phone out during the ceremony, how can I get photos of it?

Answer

Please reach out to either Layne or Katie, they would be happy to send you any photos from the ceremony! The photographer will be taking photos of the wedding party and family after the ceremony as well. After the ceremony ends, there will be several opportunities to take photos on your device during the reception. The photographer will also be taking photos during the reception.

Question

Is there a deadline to RSVP?

Question

Can I bring my children?

Absolutely! However, there will be alcohol served and music played later in the evening that will not be suitable for children. The change in music will be announced during the open dance. That way you and your family can celebrate, but also know when you may want to take your kiddos home.

Question

Will there be wedding party/family photos?

Answer

Yes! The wedding party will have professional photos taken with Layne and Katie prior to the ceremony - that way our guests have a shorter wait time between the ceremony and reception. Family will take photos after the ceremony. Layne and Katie will also take couples photos after the ceremony and throughout the evening. If you would like any of these photos, please let Layne and Katie know!
