FAQs

The Wedding Website of Carissa Burns and Brady Schiefer
Question

What is the dress code?

Answer

We’re hosting a formal garden party wedding and would love for our guests to embrace the theme! Think bright spring colors, floral prints, ruffles, and fun, festive styles. While the vibe is elegant and celebratory, we want everyone to be comfortable—especially in the warmer weather. Men are not required to wear full suits, but we do ask for dress pants and an appropriate dress shirt. Jackets and ties are totally optional. Please no casual wear—no jeans, shorts, or sneakers. Let’s dress up and celebrate in style!

Question

What time should I arrive for the ceremony?

Answer

We kindly ask that guests arrive no later than 4:15 PM to allow time to make their way up to the mansion and find a seat before the ceremony begins.

Question

Is the ceremony and reception at the same location?

Answer

Yes! Both the ceremony and reception will be held at the Liriodendron Manson - 502 W Gordon St Bel Air, MD 21014.

Question

Will the wedding be indoors or outdoors?

Answer

The wedding will be a mix of indoor and outdoor celebrations! We’re so excited to host the ceremony outdoors, surrounded by nature. Cocktail hour will also be held outside, but under a covered area for comfort. The reception will take place inside the mansion.

Question

Is there parking available?

Answer

Yes! The mansion offers free parking. Please park in the large lot located at the entrance. From there, it’s a short walk up to the mansion—just follow the steps up the hill and enjoy the view! For guests who may need assistance, a golf cart will be available to drive you up. Simply wait at the bottom of the staircase, and someone will be happy to give you a lift.

Question

Will there be an open bar?

Answer

Yes—we’re happy to share that there will be an open bar for the evening! We kindly ask that you drink responsibly. If needed, vehicles may be left in the parking lot overnight, and both Lyft and Uber are available in the area for safe rides home.

Question

Can I bring my kids?

Answer

While we love your little ones dearly, we kindly ask that this be an adults-only celebration. We hope you’ll enjoy a well-deserved night out!

Question

Can I bring a plus one?

Answer

If your invitation includes a plus one, we’d love for you to bring a guest! If not, we kindly ask that you attend solo so we can accommodate everyone comfortably.

Question

Can I post photos online?

Answer

The ceremony will be unplugged—we kindly ask that all phones and cameras be put away so everyone can be fully present. Once the ceremony is over, snap away! We encourage you to take lots of photos and videos throughout the celebration. We can’t wait to scroll through them all over breakfast the next day!
