FAQs

Question

Are kids welcome?

Answer

We've decided to keep our celebration an adult-only event (18+), with the exception of our adorable flower girls. As much as we adore your children, we are unable to make any exceptions. We appreciate your understanding!

Question

Can I bring a date?

Answer

We're so excited to celebrate with our nearest and dearest! Due to space limitations, we're only able to accommodate those listed on your invitation. We hope you understand!

Question

Is there a dress code?

Answer

Formal attire is requested for our celebration. For men: suits, classic necktie or bow tie, dress shoes. For women: long evening gowns or elegant cocktail dresses, heels or dressy flats. We kindly ask guests to avoid wearing white, ivory, cream, or champagne -- thank you for letting the bride stand out!

Will transportation be provided to/from the venue?

Answer

Yes! There is a shuttle at the Hilton Garden Inn Winchester to transport guests. Check the "Travel" section of our wedding website for more information on the hotel.

Question

Are you registered anywhere?

Answer

Your presence is the greatest gift! If you would like to contribute to our honeymoon fund, we'd be incredibly grateful. It's a chance to create memories we'll always treasure (and a chance for Chase to finally get a passport!)

Question

Am I allowed to take photos during the ceremony?

Answer

We kindly ask that all phones and cameras be put away during our ceremony. We’ve hired a professional photographer to capture every special moment, and we’d love for you to be fully present with us as we say “I do.” Thank you for understanding!

Question

Is there an open bar?

Answer

Is the Pope Catholic? Yes, drinks are on us. In all seriousness, please drink responsibly and plan a safe ride home. We want all of our guests to have fun and stay safe. Please check out the Travel section for more information on local hotels and the complimentary shuttle.
