“We loved with a love that was more than love.” Annabel Lee by Edgar Allan Poe
Question

Should I bring my gift with me to the party?

Answer

Sure! Since we took our honeymoon after our ceremony in April we are now able to transport items back to Huntsville with us following the party. If you would prefer to have an item shipped to us in Alabama please use the address below to ensure it doesn’t get misplaced in our apartment complex. Please mail any gifts to: Mr. and Mrs. Shannon Shaw 270 County Road 201 Leesburg, Alabama 35983 * Not our current or future address. Please only use this address for any gifts around the date of the wedding*

Question

Can I take photos at the party?

Answer

YES! In fact, we hope you do! We opted to forego a professional photographer and hope you'll help us capture the evening by using your very own smartphone. Remember the old disposable cameras of yesteryear? Well, this is the same idea just updated. THE GUEST app is FREE and allows you, our guest, to use your camera to take photos and videos, which are then shared automatically as they're being taken! Step 1: Download the free app on your phone - THE GUEST Step 2: Sign up in order to create your FREE account (this should take roughly 3 minutes) Step 3: Any photo taken from your phone on the 25th between 4:00pm and 9:00pm will automatically be saved into the app. If you would prefer to turn off this auto-drop method simply switch the auto share toggle at the bottom of the main page to read "off". If auto-share is off then you will need to manually select any photos to upload. Event Link: http://in.veri.com/to/shaw2021

Question

Will a full meal be served at the party?

Answer

Due to time constraints at The Poe we will have heavy hours d’oeurves and cocktails. Richmond has a thriving culinary scene and we encourage you to visit one of the many restaurants for dinner following our event.

Question

Where do I park?

Answer

There is a small, gravel parking lot adjacent to the building. Additional street parking is available. If you are able to utilize a car service we recommend doing so as parking at the Museum is tight.

Question

How should I dress for the party?

Answer

Think of our event as a summer garden party and less like a wedding reception. Temperatures in late September are typically between 75 and 85 degrees and there is always the possibility of rain so please plan accordingly as our event is outside.

Question

Will there be a repeat wedding ceremony?

Answer

No. We will incorporate a few wedding traditions into the event as well as one or two Scottish traditions, however the event is geared towards seeing old friends and meeting new ones.
