Plentywoods Venue- 275 Madison 5340, Elkins, Arkansas
Yes! Our venue has parking for all of our guests attending the wedding.
We are excited to share our special day with you! We have made the decision to have an "unplugged ceremony" because we want to be fully present in the moment with all of our loved ones. We kindly ask that you turn off your phones and cameras during the ceremony and keep them tucked away. Our professional photographer will capture all the beautiful moments, and we promise to share these photos with you. After the ceremony, you're welcome to take as many photos as you'd like during the reception. We can't wait to see all your fun shots of the celebration. We appreciate your understanding and look forward to being fully present together as we say, "I do."
We'd be so grateful if you could hold off on posting any wedding photos to social media! We're planning to make our own special announcement using our professional photos first, and we'd love to have that moment to share our day in our own way. We totally understand the excitement of wanting to share such a joyful celebration, and we appreciate you respecting our wishes on this. Once we've made our announcement, we'd be thrilled to see you share your favorite memories from our big day! Thank you so much for understanding - it means everything to us!

We're asking guests to dress in "Sunday best" attire for our early afternoon celebration. Think of the polished, put-together look you'd wear to a nice brunch, religious service, or garden party. This means dress shirts or blouses, nice skirts or sundresses. You'll be comfortable and appropriately dressed without needing to go full formal. Ladies might consider a midi dress or a nice skirt and a top. Gentlemen could wear dress pants with a collared shirt, or a sport coat if you'd like. Since we're celebrating in the early afternoon, lighter colors and fabrics are perfectly welcome. We kindly ask that guests refrain from wearing white or ivory, as we'd love to keep those colors reserved for the bride. We'd love to see you in colors such as pink, yellow, blue, orange, or green. The most important thing is that you feel comfortable and confident so you can enjoy dancing, dining, and celebrating with us!
We're mixing things up a bit! Since we're starting with a noon ceremony, we decided to skip the traditional sit-down dinner and instead treat you to a fun spread of small bites featuring all our favorite foods. Think of it as a delicious grazing experience where you can mingle, sample, and discover some of the flavors that are special to us as a couple. While it won't be a traditional full sit-down meal, we'll have plenty of seating available and dedicated time for everyone to enjoy the food together. There will be lots of tasty options to keep you satisfied throughout the afternoon celebration! If you're someone who likes to fuel up before a good celebration, we'd totally understand if you want to grab a little something beforehand to keep your energy up for all the dancing and festivities. We can't wait to share these special flavors with you and celebrate together!
