FAQs

Question

When is the RSVP deadline? Do I need to mail back an RSVP or can I do it online?

Answer

The RSVP deadline is January 31st, 2020. No need to mail back an RSVP. Please do it here, on our website. If you’re having difficulties figuring it out or would prefer to just give us a call or a text, that works too!

Question

What should I wear? Is there a dress code?

Answer

We’re getting married at a campground. The ground will be soft and maybe a little muddy. Please DO NOT wear stiletto heels, as you will sink in to the ground! Super formal attire is not required! For example, a dress shirt and khakis, or a skirt and sweater would be lovely. The night does tend to get a bit cold, so you might want to bring something to throw on when the sun goes down! Really, our only requests are; no sweats or scrubs.

Question

What will the weather be like?

Answer

Weather in February in Washington can be cold and rainy. To ensure everyone is comfortable and having a good time, please remember to bring a warm jacket and potentially and umbrella.

Question

Where is the ceremony & reception taking place?

We have the entirety of the Millersylvania State Park Retreat center to ourselves! This includes a main lodge, an outdoor amphitheater, an old barn, private lake access, and 20 cabins! The ceremony will be taking place in the amphitheater. The reception will be in the main lodge.

Question

What happens after the ceremony?

Answer

We will be having a cocktail hour directly after the ceremony to make sure everything is prepped and ready and photos can be taken! We will provide drinks, feel free to roam around and mingle. After that we will be serving tacos from one of our favorite restaurants! The rest of the night will include plenty of drinks, food, games, dancing, and pictures!

Question

What should I do if I can’t make it?

Answer

You will be sorely missed! If you can not make it please let us know as soon as possible in our RSVP section so we can plan accordingly.

Question

How do I get to the venue?

Answer

First head on over to Millersylvania State Park. Next, you’re going to follow signs for the “retreat center” or “ELC.” They switch between these two terms in the signs just to be extra confusing! When you see a one- way loop and a lake, look for the gate on the right side and follow the dirt road all the way down!

Question

What time should I arrive?

Answer

Arrive by 4 for cocktails, ceremony at 5!

Question

Where should guests park? Is it free?

Answer

Follow the signs! We won’t steer you wrong! Parking is completely free.
