Yes, the ceremony will take place at Toccoa Falls. The reception will follow at the Attic Restaurant. Guests will responsible for their transportation.
Unfortunately no. We do appreciate everyone willing to travel, but guests will be responsible for their own transportation to and from all events. Ubers are likely sparse, so please keep this in mind as we partake in celebrations. Please do not over consume alcohol and drive.
We are just appreciative of your presence, and are not expecting gifts. However, if you feel inclined to do so we have a honeymoon fund set up to help us plan our dream European vacation and start our future together.
Since our main goal is just to enjoy the weekend with our closest friends and family several of us are arriving a couple days early. There is a small group of us who plan to travel up on Friday. No events etc will take place Friday evening this is just a travel day. Majority of other people will arrive by Saturday evening. We are working on some detaild for Saturday, but will organize a time for a casual dinner for everyone to hang out. We do ask that if possible you arrive by Sunday afternoon so you are able to attend Sundays events including Vino before Vows and the rehearsal dinner.
We have reserved an outside area, including pinic tables, fire pits, bocce ball, and field sports at a Georgia Winery. Light snacks will be provided, but please bring snacks for the little ones if that is a concern. They do offer water, lemonade, and coffee as well. This is a great opportunity for everyone to enjoy North Georgia while getting to know each other. This is an official wedding event so attendance is highly encouraged and welcomed.
The “main house” is the largest of the air bnb rented by some of the groom’s family. It is a central location between the ceremony site, reception, and majority of where others are staying. This is where the rehearsal dinner will be catered and likely where we will have an “after party” after the reception.
The reception is more of a large dinner with our closest friends/family than a traditional reception. We will do the traditional dances as the 1st dance at the ceremony site, but we will not be having a dj, dance floor, etc. We would rather focus on being able to spend time with everyone while enjoying a great meal. After the reception we can venture to local bars (if open etc) or back to main house for a house party with dancing, music, etc.
Please keep in mind the wedding will take place in November, so we are expecting a crisp fall air. We kindly ask that guests refrain from wearing denim, neon, camo, solid dark greens (as this is the wedding party color), and obviously any shades of white. Thank you for your understanding understanding.
