Q + A

Question

Is there a dress code?

Answer

This is a formal event, and we would love to see our family and friends dress up with us! Ladies, long dresses are preferred. Gentlemen, a suit and tie or a tuxedo are appropriate. We ask that you refrain from wearing jeans or khakis. Feel free to wear any color you'd like, but please no white.

Question

Can I bring an additional guest?

Answer

Our wedding is strictly by invitation only. If you have a guest indicated on your invitation, then you are welcome to bring a plus one. Unfortunately, we cannot accommodate other guests due to limited seating.

Question

Are children invited?

Answer

While we love your little ones, our wedding will be an adults-only event. We encourage you to use this as a night off to relax and have fun!

Question

What time should I arrive?

Answer

Our ceremony will begin promptly at 5:30 pm. We kindly request that you arrive 30 minutes early.

Question

Can I park at the venue and leave my car overnight?

Answer

Yes! There is a large public parking lot directly across the street from The Merrimon-Wynne House that can be accessed off Polk Street. Please find driving directions below. We encourage overnight parking to ensure everyone gets back home safely. Traveling down Blount Street from Peace Street, you will pass The Merrimon-Wynne House on your left. Take an immediate left on Polk Street, and the parking lot will be located on your right between Blount and Person Street. Traveling down Person Street from Downtown Raleigh, you will turn left on Polk Street, and the parking lot entrance will be on your left, just past The Burning Coal Theater.
