Answer

We will send out a shuttle schedule with pick-up times before the event. Please let us know where you are staying when you RSVP so we can schedule accordingly.

If not using the shuttles, please note we will be in a rural area with limited cell service for directions and no rideshares available.

We'll be having s'mores with the bonfire and late night grilled cheese sandwiches!

Question

Can I bring a plus one?

Answer

Due to size constraints, we are only able to accommodate the guests on your wedding invitation. If you received a plus one, they will be listed on your invitation envelope and appear under your name when you RSVP. If you didn't receive a plus one don't worry, we know plenty of your friends and family will be there.

Question

Are there children invited to the wedding?

Answer

Unfortunately, no, while we love your children, we have chosen to keep this celebration child-free.

Question

If I stay somewhere not listed on the website, can I still use the shuttle?

Answer

If you found accommodation nearby somewhere else, just let us know and if it's possible we can add you to the shuttle service route! If your accommodation is not accessible via shuttle bus we can help you find a pick-up location close by.

Question

Answer

You know we love to travel:) We are so excited to go to Singapore and Indonesia for three weeks after our wedding. We'll be eating nasi goreng and sipping Singapore Slings, hiking active volcanoes, snorkeling with sea turtles, boating with dolphins, and exploring both modern and ancient architecture.
