FAQs
Question
What time should we arrive?
Answer
Please plan to arrive by 3:30 PM — the ceremony begins promptly at 3:45 PM. Parking and seating take a few minutes to settle, and we don’t want anyone walking in behind the bride.
Question
Where is the wedding?
Answer
Honeybee at Hopkins Heartland 30249 Fisher Road, Milton, Delaware 19968 The venue sits on a working farm surrounded by open fields. You’ll know you’re in the right place when you see the Hopkins Heartland marquee sign that reads “Mackenzie & Will.” Follow the gravel drive and pull all the way around to the parking area — attendants will help direct you once you arrive.

Dinner will be catered by a local favorite and served buffet-style — a full meal with plenty of options and a few touches that feel like us.

Will there be drinks?
Answer
Yes — a full bar with beer, wine, and signature cocktails. Please bring ID; the bar will close shortly before the send-off.
Question
Can I bring my kids?

The reception will be adults only, but babies and small children in the family or wedding party are welcome for the ceremony. Of course, baby Austen will be there, but he's a special guest ;)
Question
Is there parking at the venue?
Answer
Yes — free parking on site. The lot is gravel and grass, so drive slowly and wear practical shoes. Follow the main loop road around the property to the designated parking area — attendants will guide you when you arrive.

Question
What's the weather like in Delaware in October?
Answer
Mild and coastal — usually 70s by day, 60s by night. Bring a jacket once the sun goes down.
Question
Can we take photos or videos?

Please keep phones tucked away during the ceremony — our photographer has it covered. Afterward, take and share as many as you like.
Question
What's the vibe of the day?
Answer
Western elegance meets Delaware farmland — burnt orange, cowhide, barbed wire accents, and a laid-back celebration with good food, music, and people who actually want to be there. Mackenzie is DIY-ing most of the décor with the help of family and friends, so expect personal touches and handmade details throughout the day.
