Question

Dress code for ceremony and reception? Any other special attire notes we should know?

Answer

Ceremony- It’s at a church so Sunday clothes Reception- Is outside on a June day, who knows what will happen sun? rain? snow? Who knows it’s Ohio. We plan to have a frog jump, a slip and slide and there is a lake to swim in so it would be fun if you bring a bathing suit. Temperatures tend to dip a bit at night, and since the reception will be outside you might want to bring a jacket or wrap, there will be throw blankets available. However there will also be a bonfire to help keep guests warm.

Question

What kind of shoes should/shouldn't I wear?

Answer

It will be outside in a back yard ladies I suggest you wear flats or wedges. Heels will probably sink right in and you’ll break your ankle, we don’t need ems crashing a wedding full of cops. There will be a lot of different size flip flops provided just in case you need them as well.

Question

Colors you prefer me to wear and what you prefer I don’t wear?

Question

Are kids invited?

Answer

Its been a long debate between me and mike. I am against having any kids there but Mike has convinced me otherwise. We love all of your children, however we want you, the adult, to have fun as much as possible, we hope you make an adult decision and decide that if your kids are going to come that they get home safely by a DD and leave before the party gets to rowdy (9pm). We hope you understand! That includes any kids under 21.

We'll have pizza delivered later on at night if the food runs out Sam hates buffet style weddings but when Mike suggested Dickies cause it had a big play in their relationship she felt like she could make an exception.

Question

Where are you registered?

Answer

On this website and on Amazon.com at https://www.amazon.com/wedding/share/tamingthelyon I know it might be rude but we have lived together over 6 years and have about everything we’ll ever need. Registry items are just luxury gifts and are always over priced. A gift of cash to contribute to appliances for our new house would be appreciated, its easy, it takes a lot of pressure out of it but don’t feel obligated, we’ll just be happy to have a great party and your presence at our wedding is gift enough. Most the amazon gifts are group gifts that are just luxury gifts we have had our eye on or stuff we wanna get for the new house we're building.

Question

Can I take pictures and/or post photos of your wedding on social media?

Answer

Yes and please! If you post on Facebook please tag samantha, Mikes not on any social media. All Sam has is fb. Hash tag will be #tamingthelyon. Please if you think its inappropriate just DM it to Sam she'll still wanna see it.

Question

I HAVE A FOOD ALLERGY, CAN I MAKE A SPECIAL REQUEST?

Answer

no, eat or don't that's on you

Question

What if I plan to get extremely drunk?

Answer

Well the bride and groom are renting a camper so they can just stay the night. I don’t see the problem if you wanna bring a tent and camp out with us and help us clean up in the morning. Be aware though I’d appreciate it that if you have kids (any person under 21 years old) they are taken home by a sober adult before 9 pm. Your kids do not need to see a bunch of drunks.

Answer

Alcohol will be provided at the Reception but feel free to BYOB.
