FAQs
Question
What is the dress code?
Answer
We’d love to see our family and friends get dressed up for our big day! Dress to impress in your favorite cocktail attire. Please, no jeans or denim, and avoid wearing white—unless you want Chrissy to “accidentally” spill red wine on you. The ceremony will be held outdoors with some grassy areas, so wearing wide-heeled footwear is recommended (plus, they’ll help you dance the night away)!
Question
What time should I arrive?
Answer
Please arrive at the wedding venue (the Ponds) at 4pm. Our ceremony will begin promptly at 4:30 PM, so we kindly ask that you arrive 30 minutes early to ensure you don’t miss a moment. This will also give you time to park across the street or take the shuttle, sign the guest book, and find your seat. We will have a shuttle taking people to and from the hotel to the Ponds. Both the hotel and the Ponds are located on the Bolton Valley Ski Resort property. Parking is also available at the hotel or across the street from the Ponds. If you arrive after the ceremony has started, we kindly ask that you wait until cocktail hour to join us. We appreciate your understanding!
Question
Can I bring a guest/date?
Answer
Due to limited venue space, we are only able to accommodate the guests formally listed. If you received a plus-one, that will be indicated under your name when you RSVP. Thank you for understanding!
Question
Are kids welcome?
Answer
We love your little ones! However, due to limited space and to allow all guests (including parents) a night of relaxation and celebration, we kindly ask that our wedding be an adults-only event. We hope you can take this time to enjoy a well-deserved night off!
Question
When do I need to RSVP by?
Answer
Please RSVP by Sunday June 21, 2026, by clicking the “RSVP” tab in the menu above. If we don’t hear from you by then, we’ll assume you’re unable to attend. Thank you so much for understanding—we can’t wait to celebrate with those who can make it!
Question
What do I do if I can't make it?
Answer
We’ll miss you dearly! If you’re unable to attend, please RSVP as “not attending” as soon as possible so we can plan accordingly.
Question
Will there be an open bar?
Answer
Of course, next question.
Question
Can I take pictures during the ceremony?
Answer
We kindly ask that you join us in having an unplugged ceremony, allowing everyone to be fully present in the moment. But don’t worry—we’ll have a professional photographer capturing every special detail, and we can’t wait to share the photos with you afterward! Please keep phones and cameras tucked away during the ceremony. Once cocktail hour begins, feel free to snap as many photos and videos as your heart desires (be sure to tag us!!)
Question
Where are all the wedding events located?
Answer
Our wedding will be held at the Ponds at Bolton Valley Ski Resort. This includes the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. No traveling necessary in between these events as you are already traveling far enough going to Vermont (we appreciate it)! Our welcome party will occur the night before at American Flatbread in Stowe, VT. This is about a 30 minute drive from Bolton Valley Hotel.
