FAQs

Question

Do I have a plus one?

Answer

The envelope your invitation came in will include the names of those invited. If it has “and guest” written, that’s us saying we’re setting aside extra for you to bring a plus one if you choose. We understand you may not have kept the envelope. Feel free to text John at (352) 226-4001 if you need to check.
