June 1, 2024 Please understand that this deadline is important for many reasons. If missed and no communication is had we will put you down as a default "no" and plan accordingly. RSVP using the "RSVP" tab above.
You will be dearly missed! If you can not attend please let us know as soon as possible and RSVP "NO" so we can plan accordingly.
We have addressed the invitations to the people we would love to come. If you received a plus one they will appear under your name when you RSVP. Please ensure that you are RSVPing for yourself AND your guest. We want to have this day to celebrate with our closest family and friends, allowing us to spend time with the ones we love most. Thank you for your understanding.
We love all of your little ones! However, to allow all guests, including parents, an evening of relaxation we have chosen for our wedding day to be an adult only occasion. We hope this advance notice means you are still able to share our big day and will enjoy the evening off. Enjoy a fun date night!!
We LOVE photos but we are having an "unplugged" ceremony. This means we are asking all phones and other devices be put away and on silent/ turned off during our ceremony so that all guests can be 100% present with us. After the ceremony, please feel free to take as many photos and videos as you want. We encourage you to take and post all the photos/videos and share them on the app "JOY". There will also be disposable cameras available for you to snap away throughout the night for us to develop and look back at later. We promise to share our ceremony photos as soon as possible.
Your presence is a gift in itself! Should you feel inclined to give us a gift, please see the "Registry" section.
We would love to see our family and friends get dressed up with us. We want our guests to look and more importantly feel their best. We are kindly requesting a semi-formal/formal dress code for the evening. For men- options include a tux or the classic suit and tie. For the ladies- options include floor-length gown, fancy midi-length dress, or a classy pantsuit. Be as creative and extra as you want. If you have questions or are unsure about what to wear please look at "Outfit Inspo" section or reach out to us.
Please refrain from wearing champagne or similar colored dresses/attire as it is reserved for our wedding party and honored guests. As well as white, any shade similar, and majority white attire.
The ceremony and reception will be held at the same location. There is plenty of free parking on site at the venue. Guests are allowed to leave cars overnight if needed. Any vehicles left will need to be picked up by 10 Am the next day.
Because we are giving our guests their choice of hotel, we will not be providing shuttle services. Guests are more than welcome to carpool as they wish.
We will not be doing a "room block" as our venue is more remote and we want to give options of staying wherever you prefer. Please see our "Travel" section for a list of recommendations and other options.
We want to make accommodations as much as possible to guarantee everyone is safe. Please reach out to us if you have any food allergies or restrictions that can be reasonably accommodated. This will also be a spot on the RSVP to fill out.
Dinner will be served buffet style. Snacks will be available after the ceremony and dinner.
This will be a NON alcoholic event. There will be plenty of beverage options available. Ex: soda, water, lemonade and mocktails. A coffee bar will be available for a late night pick-me-up.
The venue offers indoor, outdoor and covered outdoor areas. Ceremony will be held outdoors and dinner will be inside. There is a beautiful covered pavilion for dancing. Please be cautious when it comes to choosing shoes to avoid any issues.
Please arrive 30 minutes prior to the ceremony to park and find your seat.
We have chosen to keep own own last names. Kendrick will be Kendrick Samuels and Morgan will be Morgan Hartenstein.
For the Ceremony, sit wherever you please. However, we will be carefully arranging tables for guests to sit with those they know and their partner/plus one.
