If your invitation says "and Guest," then yes. If not, we look forward to celebrating with just you!
Cocktail attire, please. This will be a luncheon style reception, so we recommend wearing something nice but it doesn't have to be too fancy.
Our friends and family follow a variety of special diets. In order to accommodate everyone as best as possible, much of our menu will be vegan friendly. Food will be served buffet style and everything will be appropriately labeled. Those with gluten allergies are being given separately plated food. If you have an allergy we are unaware of, please let us know beforehand so we can make sure there will be something for you to eat!
Of course! There will be 2 hours of open bar from 11:30 am - 1:30 pm. A selection of wine and beer will be available, as well as water and coffee. If you plan to drink alcoholic beverages, please make sure to bring your ID because you will be carded.
We are asking everyone to please keep the ceremony technology free. We have hired a professional photographer who will make sure our "I do" moment is captured. Feel free to take as many pictures and videos as you like throughout the reception.
To put it simply, the COVID pandemic is still ongoing. Though things are getting much better here, it is still possible to spread the infection to unvaccinated individuals. The health and safety of our friends and family is of utmost important to us, and we will not take any undue risks.
