FAQs
Question
Can We Bring Our Kids?
Answer
As much as we'd love to have everyone join us, we would really appreciate it if you could make this a date night! 18+ teens are welcome, but please keep little ones at home. Our flower girl and ring bearers will be the only children in attendance for this event.
Question
Can We Attend the Ceremony?
Answer
We have a very limited capacity in the Sunken Garden, so only our immediate family members will be present for our private ceremony at the conservatory. We look forward to seeing everyone at the reception right after we say "I do"!
Question
What's for Dinner??
Answer
Dinner will be served by Donatelli's, with guests being able to choose from a creamy Cajun Tortellini with Chicken and Peppers, or a rich, Sous Vide prepared Tuscan Chicken breast. With the addition of some seasonal roasted vegetables, toasted garlic bread, and a delicious fresh spinach salad to start, we encourage everyone to come hungry! Please note that our caterer can prepare a GF, DF, vegetarian or vegan option for anyone upon request, so don't hesitate to ask the wait staff for a custom dining experience!
Question
Are vaccinations required?
Answer
Technically no... but for the sake of our family members and friends with compromised immune systems, we would SINCERELY HOPE that you're fully vaccinated before attending this event. Thanks in advance for thinking of others <3
Question
Are you changing your last names?
Answer
Nope! We'll just be Mr. Kory Newgaard and Mrs. Samantha Driscoll, aka the Driscoll Newgaard family. Besides the massive amount of paperwork involved with name changes, we both feel the tradition is a little out dated, and just not for us. Thanks for understanding!
Question
Will Peanut or Panda be there?
Answer
Unfortunately, Peanut was booked solid that weekend since he adheres to a very strict napping schedule- but Panda might be gracing us with her presence! She's a great dancer, after all.
Question
Will you be starting a family now that you're married?
Answer
No thanks! (: This question comes up at just about every family gathering we attend in one way or another, so we thought we'd address it here as well. As far as we're concerned we're very much already a family of four, and will only be adding animals to our menagerie in the future.
