The Wedding Website of Tanaya Hayes and Nathaniel Zieske
Frequently Asked Questions We are so excited to celebrate with you! Below you’ll find everything you need to know to make the day smooth, comfortable, and enjoyable for everyone. We cannot wait to celebrate this beautiful day with you 🤍
Question

What time does the wedding start?

Answer

Our ceremony will begin promptly at 2:00 PM. We kindly ask guests to arrive by 1:30–1:45 PM to allow time for seating and to settle in before the ceremony begins.

Question

Where is the ceremony and reception?

Answer

Both our ceremony and reception will take place at the same venue. Details and directions can be found on the “Travel” tab of this website.

Question

How should we get to the venue?

Answer

The venue is approximately a 1 hour and 15-minute drive from the nearest airport. If you are flying in and stay in a nearby hotel, we highly recommend renting a car, as it is typically the most convenient and cost-effective way to get around during the weekend. Uber and local taxi services are available.

Question

Is there parking available?

Answer

Yes, parking will be available at the venue. Additional details and directions can be found on our website.

Question

What is the dress code?

Answer

Our wedding will be semi-formal to formal attire. Think elegant and timeless—flowy dresses, dressy jumpsuits, suits, or button-downs. We kindly ask that you do not wear white, sage green or dusty blue as these are reserved for the wedding party.

Question

Is the wedding indoors or outdoors?

Answer

Our celebration will be held outdoors, so please dress comfortably for the setting.

Question

What will the weather be like?

Answer

November brings beautiful fall weather, but temperatures may be warm in the afternoon and cooler in the evening. We recommend bringing a light layer for later in the day.

Question

Should I wear heels?

Answer

Please keep in mind the ceremony will take place on grass/uneven ground, so block heels, wedges, or flats are highly recommended.

Question

Will there be shade or sun protection?

Answer

Yes! We will have shaded areas available, but we also suggest bringing sunglasses and dressing comfortably for the afternoon sun.

Question

Can I bring a plus-one?

Answer

Due to limited space, we are only able to accommodate those guests formally listed on your invitation. Thank you for understanding.

Question

Are children invited?

Answer

While we truly love your little ones, our wedding will be an adults-only celebration. We have made a few special exceptions for children of close family and friends, which have been arranged in advance.

Question

Is this an unplugged ceremony?

Answer

We kindly ask that you put phones away during the ceremony and be fully present with us in the moment. Feel free to take photos during the reception!

Question

Where are you registered?

Answer

Your presence is the greatest gift of all! However, if you wish to celebrate with a gift, you can find our registry on the “Registry” tab of this website.

Question

Who can I contact if I have questions?
