Question

What are the Covid-19 restrictions?

Our venue is classified as an outdoor venue. The two barns are open-air pavilions. Your health and safety are our top priority and we ask that all guests are vaccinated. Additionally, we ask that all guests take an at-home COVID-19 test within 48 hours of our wedding day.

Question

How do I get to the venue?

Answer

Parking is free at the wedding venue for all of our guests. There will be a parking attendant out front to show you where to park when you arrive via GPS. We will also provide school bus transportation back and forth to the Wyndham Hotel for guests who would like to use it. The school bus service will pick guests up from the Wyndham at 3:10 pm. Please be ready a few minutes early if this is your transportation! The school bus service will offer a trip back to the Wyndham at the end of the reception at approximately 10:00 pm. If necessary, you may leave your vehicle overnight at the wedding venue until 12:00 pm the next day.

Question

Can I take photos and post on social media?

Answer

Yes! While we aren't having a "no phones policy" during our ceremony, we ask that you be respectful, discreet, and make sure you are not distracting anybody. Please put your phones on silent and stay clear of the professional photographer and videographer. Feel free to take as many photos/videos as you want and use our wedding hashtag #TaliaFoundAGoodman If you do take photos we would love to see them! Be on the lookout for an email including a Google Drive link after the wedding to easily share photos with us.

Absolutely! Formal paper RSVPs will be sent out as well, so please choose what ever method is most convenient for you! If you need to change your RSVP or let us know about a dietary restriction, please email us before July 20, 2022 at matt.talia.goodman@gmail.com.

Question

Are kids invited?

Answer

No. While we love your kids, we unfortunately are not able to accommodate them. We want our wedding to be your night off!

Question

May I bring a date?

Answer

Unless specifically designated, guests will not be given a plus one. We wish we could invite everyone. There are so many more people we’d love to invite but we have worked really hard to create a small, intimate celebration featuring all of our most important people. Thank you in advance for understanding!
