FAQs

Question

What will the weather be like in late September?

Answer

The daytime temperatures are expected to be in the mid-70s, with evening temperatures dipping into the 50s. Be sure to bring a light jacket for the evening!

Question

Are there any dress code guidelines for guests?

Answer

Semi Formal We kindly ask that guests avoid wearing blue, green, and, of course, white to help us maintain the look of the day.

Question

Can we bring a guest?

Answer

Please note that our celebration is an intimate event, and we are unable to accommodate additional guests, unless otherwise specified.

Question

Can we bring children?

Answer

As much as we love them, there will be no children. Unless otherwise specified.

Question

It’s a forest, what kind of shoes should I wear?

Answer

The ceremony space has a mulch floor, so we recommend wearing shoes with a thicker platform or a wedge-style heel for comfort and stability. Don’t worry though there will also be a designated dance floor, so you’ll have a comfortable place to dance.
