Question

Will there be a greeting line at the end of the ceremony

Answer

Due to COVID 19 we thought it was best if we did not have the greeting line. We want to keep everyone safe and us shaking everyones hands would not be a great way to do that

Question

Is there still a bar?

Answer

Yes! The bar tender will be wearing a mask and using gloves the entire time. There will not be fresh olives etc to minimize the risk of passing germs.

Question

How will food work?

Answer

Food will still be buffet style. HOWEVER each guest will not handle their own plate. The staff will be wearing gloves and masks and you will tell the staff which food you want. They will dish it for you. You will not touch your own plate until it is given to you at the end of the buffet. There will be a partition between you and the food to keep everyone safe as well.

Question

Will there be a bouquet toss?

Answer

We originally planned on having this but after much thought we decided it was best not to have a bunch of ladies crowding the dance floor trying to catch a bouquet thrown badly by Nikki. Best to keep everyone safe from Nikki's bad aim and from people invading others personal space during this time
