Question
What should I expect for a private property wedding?
Answer
Our wedding will take place on a private property, Sadie’s family’s farm, with the elevated feel of a formal garden party. Please note that there will be a fair amount of walking between event spaces, and the terrain is uneven in some areas (gravel, grass, and gentle slopes), so we recommend wearing comfortable, sturdy footwear. A huge thank you to the Glickman family for providing such a special place to celebrate! Please be respectful of the grounds and stick to the areas of the wedding events!
Question
Is there a dress code?
Answer
The dress code is formal. For guidance, see the “Outfit Inspiration” tab. Please consider the venue when choosing your footwear. Celebrations will take place on grass, gravel, and uneven grounds!
Question
When should I RSVP by?
Answer
Please kindly RSVP as soon as possible, and latest by March 18, 2026. This will help us finalize all the details and make sure you’re well taken care of on the big day.
Question
Is it an outdoor or indoor wedding?
Answer
All events on the wedding day will take place outside. Please stick to areas of the wedding celebration! While we hope the sun is shining, if the rain decides to attend, we will move the reception and dancing to a tented area.
Question
Do you have a wedding registry?
Answer
We’re so grateful to everyone making the trip to celebrate with us. Your presence truly is the best gift. We do not have a formal registry, but if you wish to honour us with a gift, we would be so thankful for contributions to our honeymoon fund. Thank you for your love and support.
Question
Are kids welcome?
Answer
We love your little ones, but we kindly ask that our wedding be an adults-only event. We hope you enjoy a well-deserved evening off!
Question
Can I bring a date?
