FAQs

Question

When and where is the wedding?

Answer

Our wedding will be on Monday, December 29th at 3:00 pm. The address will be provided on your invitation.

Question

What time should I arrive?

Answer

The venue doors will open at 2:30pm and the ceremony will start promptly at 3:00pm. If you’re running behind, don’t worry—you can come in after the bride has made her entrance.

Question

What should I wear?

Answer

This is a black-tie/formal event, and we kindly ask guests to wear ALL BLACK attire. We're aiming for an elegant, classic, and timeless aesthetic. We kindly ask that you refrain from wearing jeans, t-shirts, sweats, etc.

Question

Will there be alcohol?

Answer

To ensure a fun and respectful atmosphere for all of our guests, our wedding will be a completely 100% DRY/alcohol-FREE event. As such, alcohol will not be permitted. Guests who bring or consume alcohol will kindly be asked to leave and will not be able to continue celebrating with us.

Question

Can I bring a plus one?

Answer

Thank you for asking! Due to space limitations, seats are only reserved for those listed on the invitation. If a plus one isn’t specified, we’re unable to accommodate an additional guest. If your plus one can’t attend, unfortunately, substitutions cannot be made as we must honor our guest list.

Question

Are kids/children allowed?

Answer

We absolutely LOVE the kids! However, due to space limitations, we are only able to accommodate the children who are in the bridal party. We hope this provides you with the perfect opportunity to unwind and that you’ll still be able to celebrate with us!

Question

Can I take/post photos and videos?

Answer

We have chosen to have an unplugged ceremony, meaning we kindly ask that no photos or videos be taken during the ceremony. Our professional photographer and videographer will capture every special moment. You’re more than welcome to take as many photos and videos as you'd like after the ceremony and during the reception! We’d love to share our moments first, so please hold off on posting any photos or videos until we’ve had the chance to share ours.

Question

What if I don’t RSVP by the deadline?

Answer

If we do not receive your RSVP by our HARD deadline of November 17th, you will be marked as “not attending” and unfortunately will not be able to join us for the celebration.

Question

If I don't feel well, can I still attend if I have already RSVP'd?

Answer

While we would love for you join us, everyone's health is important to us. To ensure the safety of our guests, if you are not feeling well, unfortunately you will not be able to attend. If you are sick, please contact Colleen.

Question

What's the story behind the wedding hashtag?

Answer

Darius was a dedicated security officer and we thought that #SecuringSavoy was the perfect blend of his previous profession and me “securing” his last name.

Question

Will the ceremony be live streamed?

Answer

Yes! We understand that not everyone can be present, so we have arranged for a virtual option to include everyone who wishes to partake in the celebration. The livestream link will be posted to the website at a later date.

Question

Is there anything else we should know?

Answer

To ensure the ceremony and reception remain focused on our love, commitment, and union, we kindly ask that no special announcements be made by guests at any time during our celebration.
