We'd love to see our family and friends get dressed up for our big day! Dress code is formal. We ask that men wear a suit & tie or a nice button down shirt with slacks (No Jeans Please!) and ladies wear a floor-length or midi-length gown. We are requesting guests to lean into a colorful garden party palette; outfit inspiration can be found in the link below! https://pin.it/2gdziQWDQ
Question
Can I bring a date?
Answer
Due to limited space, we are only able to accommodate those guests formally invited on your wedding invitation. If you received a plus one, they will appear under your name when you RSVP. Thank you for understanding!
Question
Are kids invited?
Answer
We love your little ones! However, we have decided to keep our wedding an adults-only event and will only be able to accommodate those specifically listed on your invitation. We encourage you to use this evening as a date night!
Question
Will there be an open bar?
Answer
Yes! Select beer, wine, spirits, soda and signature cocktails are on us!
Question
Can I take pictures during the ceremony?
Answer
We are having an “unplugged” ceremony (no phones or cameras out). The greatest gift you can give us is to be fully present as we say “I do.” We have hired professionals to capture this moment for us and we promise to share the photos and video as soon as we receive them. After the ceremony feel free to take as many photos and videos as you’d like!
Question
Are there any transportation services available?
Answer
For those staying local, there's a shuttle bus that will pick up guests from Rod N Reel Resort before the ceremony begins and will drop back off after the reception. If you are coming from out-of-town, the parking lot across from the venue is free to park in and you are allowed to park there overnight! Uber and/or Lyft also services this area, just keep in mind wait times. For those using the shuttle bus from Rod N Reel there will be two pick up times prior to the ceremony. The shuttle bus will depart at 4:30 and 5:00 pm so please be ready outside the main lobby 15 minutes prior to the pick up time you select! Keep in mind the shuttle bus only has 25 seats available for each trip - to reduce overflow, please pick out your departure time using the link below: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C0F49AAAA28ABF5C34-64433976-wedding For those staying at Rod n Reel the shuttle bus will also be transporting guests back at the end of the night with available transport times listed below: 9 pm 9:30 pm 10:00 pm 10:30 pm
