We anticipate, based on current projections, that the cost for each person (traveling from out of state), including flights, lodging, & food, will be roughly $700. Estimated flight/rental car cost: $350 Estimated lodging for 2 nights: $200 Estimated food: $150 Total per person: $700 Total per couple: $1,400 *I highly recommend saving an additional $200 for unexpected costs
There will be a professional photographer, so please dress formally. No jeans/t-shirts. We are asking that everyone wear darker colors: dark blues, greens, blacks. Hints of deep red are okay. Please do not wear whites/greys/silvers.
Donating money to help others cover food costs. Volunteering to help prepare meals and keep the Airbnb clean. Volunteering to shuttle those without vehicles, when needed. Making sure you DO NOT bring your phone to the ceremony, or are willing to turn it off and put it in a basket for the event. It will upset the bride/groom to see any cellphones out during the events at the wedding venue. If you want to help the bride/groom specifically, you can send a cash gift via Venmo. Money always helps!
1. YOU! 2. Positivity/energy/excitement 3. Your wedding attire/supplies 4. Extra clothing for fishing 5. Extra funds for the unexpected 6. Extra room in your suitcase for prizes 7. Your favorite memory with the bride and/or groom written down 8. Your best date night idea for the bride/groom written down
Although we had a list of 140+ people we wanted to invite, the venue and our budget only allowed us to book an elopement package with a maximum of 14 guests. This meant that there were several immediate family members that we were not able to invite (including some siblings on both sides). We are so sorry that we were not able to afford to host a reception for everyone as we had originally planned. We will post plenty of photos to share with friends and family after the ceremony.
