Question
Is it okay to take pictures with our phones and cameras during the wedding?
Answer
We are currently saving for a photographer to capture everyone’s best moments! Should we be successful, we may consider an unplugged wedding, as we want everyone to be in the moment and enjoy themselves. Please stay posted!
Question
How does the Honey Fund work?
Answer
Thank you for considering a contribution to our Honey Fund! We are hoping to give you all an incredible experience, and appreciate any contribution. You can choose any amount to contribute to any of the funds available. Once you’ve selected a fund you’re interested in contributing to, the site will direct you to send the funds directly through Venmo. However, you’re more than welcome to send a personal check instead, please address it to Kevin Doyle. Thank you!
Question
What is Venmo?
Answer
No need to learn about Venmo for our wedding! If you’re looking for ways to contribute to the Honey Fund, you’re welcome to send a personal check to Kevin Doyle (Sarah is very bad at cashing checks, apparently).
