FAQs

Question

When should I RSVP?

Answer

Please RSVP as soon as you can! We ask that you RSVP by August 15th at the latest.

Question

What time should I arrive?

Answer

The ceremony will begin promptly at 4pm, so we kindly request that guests plan to arrive no earlier than 3:15pm and no later than 3:45pm. Guests who have not arrived by the start of the ceremony will not be permitted to enter the venue until after the conclusion of the ceremony. We appreciate your understanding in ensuring that Sam and Paige have their special moment, uninterrupted.

Question

Where's the reception?

Answer

The ceremony and reception are all at Cedar Creek Ranch! After the ceremony, you will walk a short path to the cocktail hour space. Then, you will be ushered to the Reception tent located close on the property. Golf cart rides will be available to anyone looking for support!

Question

Can I request a song?

Answer

Question

Is there a dress code?

Answer

We kindly request that guests dress in formal attire (black-tie optional). Suits, button-down shirts, and floor-length gowns are encouraged! As always, please refrain from wearing white/ivory. Thank you! Please be aware that a majority of the afternoon's celebrations will take place outside, so be prepared to walk on cobblestone paths and the occasional bit of grass (if you'd like to partake in cocktail hour yard games!).

Question

What's the weather going to be like?

Answer

On average, October in Waxhaw features 75 degree highs with 50 degree lows. Expect sunny skies, low humidity, and light wind. The ceremony & cocktail hour are both going to take place outside, so it'll be essential to keep an eye on the weather in the days leading up to the event. In the case of rain, all events will take place in the reception area. If you get chilly easily, think about bringing a jacket for the evening.

Question

Can I bring a guest?

Answer

Unless your invitation explicitly included a plus one, we kindly ask that you do not bring any extra guests. We would love for our wedding to be an intimate gathering with only our closest family, friends, and loved ones.

Question

Can we park at the venue?

Answer

Yes, you can park at Cedar Creek Ranch! There will be a designated parking lot for our local guests. However, we encourage people (especially those looking to partake in adult beverages) to take advantage of the shuttle that will take guests from the hotels in Waverley to the venue. If you do drive, please be aware that to get to Cedar Creek Ranch, you will have to drive down a gravel road for ~1 mile. You will see signs along the way encouraging you to keep going - it'll feel a bit strange, but you are in the right place!

Question

Will there be dinner?

Answer

Yes! Dinner will be served at 6pm. We will have a variety of options to choose from including a hand-carved beef station, a shrimp & grits table, and a Greek-inspired shish kebab station.

Question

How will the shuttle system work?

Answer

We are excited to work with _________ to safely bring our guests from the hotels in Waverly to the venue & then back again at the end of the night. Stay tuned for an up-to-date schedule for October 3rd that'll include pick-up & drop-off times and locations.

Question

What's the bridal party wearing?

Answer

The bridal party is going to be stunning! The ladies are wearing terracotta gowns & the boys will be in black suits.

Question

Is it okay to uber?

Answer

Of course! Ubers are plentiful in Waverly/Waxhaw. We encourage everyone who is partaking in adult beverages to either uber, take the shuttle, or rideshare with a designated sober driver. If you uber, please inform your driver that the driveway to the venue is a long gravel road (about 1 mile). You will see signs along the way encouraging you that you're almost there.

Question

Are kids invited?

Answer

We love your little ones! However, we've made the hard decision to make the evening adult-only with the exception of our bridal party. We hope you can take the chance to enjoy a night out! And we thank you for your understanding.

Question

What happens if I don't RSVP by August 15th?

Answer

If we do not receive your RSVP by August 15th, it will be marked as a "No." We will miss celebrating with you, however, we have to provide a total guest count to the venue and vendors in the timely manner that they've requested. We appreciate your understanding!

Question

What time does the reception end?

Answer

We will be making our exit at 10pm. Our vendors will promptly begin breaking down at that time as well. At 10, shuttles will take guests back to the hotels in Waverly. For those hoping to keep the party going, we want to see you at Mary O'Neils in Waxhaw, NC afterwards!
