Question
What is the dress code?
Answer
Formal but comfy! Think elevated, not uptight. Dress like you're going to a wedding—just not one where you'd need a tuxedo or 4-inch heels. Cocktail dresses, dressy maxi dresses, button-down shirts, slacks, or even a suit with sneakers are all perfect. Prioritize style and comfort—especially if you want to dance, wander the woods, or enjoy dessert without a waist trainer.
Question
Can I bring a plus one?
Answer
While we wish we could invite everyone, space is limited and we’re keeping things intimate. Unless your invitation specifically includes a guest, we’re unable to accommodate additional plus ones. We appreciate your understanding!
Question
Are children invited?
Answer
Yes—children are welcome, especially since some special little ones are part of the wedding party! That said, we lovingly encourage parents to consider this a night off if they can swing a babysitter. We want everyone (including you!) to enjoy the evening with minimal meltdowns and maximum dance moves.
Question
Will there be dancing?
Answer
Absolutely!! Bring your dancing shoes and be ready to dance like no one is watching!
Question
Will there be dinner and drinks?
Answer
Yes! We'll kick things off with appetizers during the cocktail hour, followed by fresh, made-on-site pizza for dinner. Be sure to save room for some delicious mini pies for dessert! Drinks are on us—there will be wine, beer, and a champagne toast to celebrate.
Question
Is there parking available?
Answer
Yes! There is free parking available on-site. However, space is limited, so we encourage guests to carpool if possible. The road leading in is narrow and can be tricky at night, so please drive carefully and be prepared for a short drive down a dark, narrow road if you’re arriving or leaving by car.
Question
What time should I arrive?
Answer
We recommend arriving by 3:30 to accommodate time for parking and navigating to the ceremony. The ceremony will begin at 4:00pm.
Question
What should I expect for weather?
Answer
It’ll likely be warm during the day, with a slight chance of cooler temps once the sun goes down. We recommend dressing comfortably and bringing a light layer just in case it gets cooler at night.
