FAQs

Question

Is there a cheaper way to fly?

Answer

Yes! If you’re comfortable doing so, you can book a return flight from London to a major hub airport (Dublin, New York, Washington, etc...), then book a separate internal return flight from there to any of the towns or cities mentioned.

Question

Wedding Gifts?

Answer

No, simply coming to the wedding is gift enough :) But if you must...Dan has always wanted a boat ⛵️

Question

What will the weather be like?

Answer

Hot! Please bear this in mind when packing and planning your outfit for the day. We don’t want anyone going down in the sun! There will be short, intense rainfall somedays, so a small waterproof might be handy!

Question

What is there to do at the venue?

Answer

As you can probably tell, this won’t be a traditional wedding. We want to have an amazing time with our favourite people, in our favourite place — and the venue reflects that! There’ll be a cinema, pool, lake, outdoor games, and indoor table games, so make sure you bring something comfy to wear for the afterparty!

Question

Will I be eaten by a Black Bear?

Answer

Probably not… but you never know.

Question

I have a food allergy, can I make a special request?

Answer

Yes! Just let us know on your RSVP. We’ll be doing an informal dining setup on the day, so dietary requirements and allergies should be easy to accommodate.

Question

Are there any other events that I should know about around the wedding?

Answer

The pre-wedding festivities will kick off in Nashville on 26 August. We will also be having a reception back home in Wales once we return from the wedding celebrations. Dates and further details will be shared in due course. Please keep an eye on the schedule page for updates as more information becomes available.

Question

How long will we be out there?

Answer

We (Hannah and Dan) will be spending around two weeks in Tennessee and would love to celebrate with you along the way! We'll be in Nashville from 26th August for some pre-wedding festivities before heading to Sevierville, where we'll be staying at the wedding venue from 27th–31st August.

Question

What do I need to bring?

Answer

Light, comfortable clothing – late August in Tennessee is typically warm and sunny, although occasional rain showers are common, so a lightweight waterproof is a good idea. A light jumper or jacket is also recommended for cooler mountain evenings and heavily air-conditioned indoor spaces. A swimsuit if you'd like to enjoy the pool or hot tub, or even take a wild dip while out exploring the trails. Sunscreen, sunglasses, and a hat for spending time outdoors – and don't forget the bug spray! Comfortable walking shoes for exploring Sevierville and, if you fancy it, making the most of the beautiful trails in the Smoky Mountains. Your wedding-day outfit (we'll share dress code and colour details closer to the date). Most importantly, bring your sense of adventure and get ready for a wonderful few days celebrating with us in the Smokies!
