Question

Are children allowed?

Answer

As much as we love children, Our Wedding is Adults Only. So we politely ask that you please find a babysitter or other accommodations for your children. Due to a limited guest count as well as the venue costs we can not accommodate any children. In order to allow all guests including the Bride and Groom an evening of fun & relaxation, this is why we have chosen for our wedding to be an adult only occasion. We hope that this advance notice means you will be able to find accommodations ahead of time, still be able to share our big day with us, as well as enjoy having the evening off.

Answer

We politely ask that if you did not receive a +1 reservation spot on your RSVP, to please be respectful to the Bride and Groom and do not bring a guest.
