Question

Can I take photos?

Answer

We are having an “unplugged” ceremony. We ask that all phones and devices be put away and on silent during the ceremony. We want everyone to be fully present with us and to enjoy the moment. We have hired a photographer to capture our day and want her to be able to get every special moment without distractions. After the ceremony, feel free to take as many pictures as you want! We will be certain to share our ceremony photos once we receive the final photos from our photographer.
