Question

When should I RSVP by?

Answer

We can’t wait to celebrate with you! Please be sure to RSVP by April 10, 2026, so we can save you a seat at the table and include you in our final headcount. Kindly note: Due to venue and catering deadlines, we won’t be able to accept RSVPs after this date. If we haven’t received your response by the deadline, we’ll assume you’re unable to attend. We truly appreciate your understanding—seating and meals are reserved only for those who RSVP in advance. Thank you for helping us plan our special day—we’re so grateful to have you in our lives!

Question

Are kids welcome?

Answer

While we adore your little ones, we’ve decided to make our wedding an adults-only event. Due to space limitations at our venue, we kindly ask that children do not attend the ceremony or reception. We hope this advance notice allows you time to plan, and we truly hope you’ll still be able to join us for our special day. For those traveling with children, we will have a professional babysitter available during the wedding and reception. A small fee will apply for this service. Thank you for your understanding and support—we can’t wait to celebrate with you!

Question

Can I bring a date?

Answer

We’re so excited to celebrate with our closest family and friends. Due to space limitations and the intimate nature of our celebration, only guests listed on the invitation are invited to attend. We kindly ask that you do not bring an uninvited guest, as we’re unable to accommodate additional attendees. Thank you for understanding and helping us keep this special day meaningful and personal.

Question

Is there a dress code?

Answer

Yes—this will be a formal affair! We kindly ask guests to dress in formal attire. Please, no jeans or athletic wear. Out of respect for the bride, we also ask that guests refrain from wearing white, ivory, or similar shades. Our ceremony will take place in a garden setting, and we’d love for our guests to reflect that beauty—floral colors and patterns are highly encouraged. Think of yourselves as the vibrant blooms in our garden of matrimony!

Question

Can I take pictures during the wedding?

Answer

We kindly ask that you join us for an unplugged ceremony. We’ve hired professional photographers and videographers to beautifully capture every moment, and we’d love for you to be fully present with us during this special time. Feel free to take all the photos and videos your heart desires during cocktail hour and the reception! We’d love to see your perspective—so please share your memories using the QR codes provided at the reception to contribute to our guest POV video! And don’t forget to tag your moments on social media with our hashtag: #BecomingTheCannons

Question

Will there be food served?

Answer

Absolutely! We’ll be serving light refreshments during cocktail hour, followed by a full dinner at the reception. Guests will have a choice between three delicious meal options: beef, chicken, or a vegetarian/vegan entrée. You’ll be able to select your meal when the official invitations are sent out. We can’t wait to share a wonderful meal and unforgettable evening with you!

Question

Do I need to bring cash or a card for anything?

Answer

No need—meals are provided, and we’ll be offering an open bar for all our guests to enjoy! The only thing we kindly ask is that, if you’re able, please consider tipping the bartenders as a gesture of appreciation for their service. Thank you!

Question

Where will I be sitting during the wedding and reception?

Answer

Seating arrangements will be clearly displayed on signage at the venue, so you’ll easily find your spot! There won’t be a traditional “bride’s side” or “groom’s side”—we’re all one family now, and we invite everyone to sit wherever they feel most comfortable. It’s the perfect way to celebrate the beginning of our beautifully blended family.

Question

Will there be hotel accommodations or a room block for the wedding?

Answer

Yes! Since our wedding is out of state, we’re reserving a hotel room block near the venue to make things easier for our guests. We’ll share all the booking details—rates, location, and how to reserve—once everything is confirmed. Of course, you’re more than welcome to make your own accommodations if you prefer to stay elsewhere!
