FAQs

Question

Will the ceremony and reception be at the same location?

Answer

Yes! The ceremony will be held outdoors in the garden of the venue along with a cocktail hour. The reception will be held indoors with air conditioning.

Question

How early should I arrive at the venue?

Answer

We kindly ask that guests arrive by 5:00 PM to allow plenty of time for parking and getting settled before the ceremony begins. Since our wedding is in the city, parking may take a few extra minutes to find. The ceremony will begin promptly at 5:30 PM, and we’d love for everyone to be comfortably seated so we can start on time without any disruptions.

Question

Is there parking at the venue?

Answer

The Trolley Barn has 10 on-site spaces on the side of the building and two handicap spaces at the main entrance. Additional 52 off-street spaces are available at two lots, one directly across the street from the Barn and one a half a block from the Barn. Parking is also available on both sides of Edgewood Avenue. There is no charge for parking. The venue is also conveniently located near a MARTA station if you’d rather not drive/Uber!

Question

Can I bring my children?

Answer

While we love your little ones, our wedding will be an adults-only celebration. We made this decision due to capacity restrictions with our venue. We hope you will enjoy a night off to fully relax and celebrate with us!

Question

Is there a dress code?

Answer

We kindly ask that you wear garden party/springtime brunch attire. We imagine this as light and flowy fabrics, floral prints or soft pastels, and midi or tea length dresses, dressy separates, or light suits. If you’re still unsure, dress as if you’re going to a really nice brunch and might end up on grass. :) Our colors are lavender and sage green - you can absolutely wear them! We kindly ask you do not wear white, ivory, or anything too bridal.

Question

Where can I find accommodations?

Answer

You've come to the right place! Under the 'travel' tab on this website, you will find information about hotel recommendations. Please reach out to us if you need further advice on the best parts of town to stay in.

Question

Do you have a registry?

Answer

Yes! Right now, we are only registered here on Zola.com. While we have registered for traditional gifts, we would also appreciate donations to our honeymoon or home renovation funds. Our condo was built in the 1960s, so we would love to make some modern updates to it. We'd greatly appreciate your donation!

Question

What is the weather typically like in Atlanta?

Answer

Temperatures are usually between mid-70s to low-80s and sunny. The days are very long during this time of the year, so sun will last well into the evening. Rain is common in late May, but it usually comes as a shower rather than a prolonged period of rain. May is one of the best times of the year in Atlanta for weather, so take advantage of any outdoor activities!

Question

What is the dinner menu?

Answer

We will be serving dinner buffet-style. Salad: Spring greens with heirloom tomatoes, crumbled goat cheese, strawberries and sunflower seeds - served with peach blinis vinaigrette or thai basil pesto ranch Mains: Muscadine braised short ribs with side pork lardon and pink pickled vidalias with cab jus glaze; pan seared salmon in creamy balsamic-braised shallots Sides: Tri-colored roasted carrots with sriracha and shallot EVOO; roasted brussel sprouts and parsnip with balsamic molasses; brie and sharp cheddar mac-n-cheese *There will be vegetarian options for those who specify at time of RSVP. We unfortunately will not be able to accommodate vegetarian meals if not specified at time of reservation.
