Question
Will the wedding take place indoors or outdoors?

Question
What is the dress code?
Answer
We would love all of our guests to look their best! Thus, we are requesting formal cocktail attire. For women, we suggest a cocktail, midi, or floor-length dress or a dressy jumpsuit. When choosing a shoe, please keep in mind that the ceremony will be held on grass. For men, we suggest a suit or blazer with dress pants, a dress shirt, and dress shoes. Ties are encouraged but not required.
Question
Can I bring a date?
Answer
Due to limited space, we are only able to accommodate those guests formally invited on your wedding invitation. If you received a plus one they will appear under your name when you RSVP. Thank you for understanding!
Question
Are children welcome?
Answer
We love your little ones, though we have decided to keep our wedding an adults only event. We hope this gives everyone an opportunity to use our wedding as a date night and enjoy an evening out with family and friends. However, we understand that arranging childcare can be difficult, especially for out-of-town guests. If this request would prevent you from attending, please reach out to us and we will find a solution!
Question
Will there be transportation?
Answer
Yes! We will provide bus transportation departing from the DoubleTree by Hilton Appleton at 3:30 pm. This bus will also be available (free of charge) to take guests back to the DoubleTree after the reception.
Question
Is there parking at the venue?
Answer
Yes, there will be plenty of parking at the venue, though we encourage carpooling, ride shares (e.g. Uber, Lyft), and using our Lamers bus rental so you can enjoy the celebration and get home safely.
Question
Can I take pictures during the ceremony?
Answer
We are having an "unplugged ceremony." We kindly ask you put away your phones and cameras for the ceremony. The greatest gift you can give us is being fully present as we say "I do." We have hired professionals to capture this moment for us and we promise to share our photos when we have received them. After the ceremony, feel free to take as many photos and videos as you would like!
