We are required to adhere to all State of Washington guidelines for weddings, and we will do our best to keep everyone safe. ALL guests, vaccinated or not, are required to wear a mask except while they are drinking or eating. The brides and officiant can go mask-less during the ceremony however; guests will be placed into groups for the evening, and seated together for both the ceremony and at dinner. Please look for the "find your seat" sign when you arrive.
Yes! Please take a photo of your proof of vaccination card in case you are asked to provide it at the wedding.
If you are not fully vaccinated for Covid 19 you must be tested within 72 hours of the event and test negative. You can find testing at a variety of places we are recommending Walgreens.
Please take your temperature prior to attending, and self screen for any Covid signs or symptoms. If you have a fever over 100.4*F, have any Covid symptoms, or have recently been exposed to Covid, please do not attend. All guests must wear masks, and do their best to maintain social distancing from other groups.
Cocktail attire would be appropriate. But we want you to feel comfortable. When deciding what to wear please keep in mind that the venue has soft grass and gravel.
JM Cellars will be open to the public for tastings earlier in the day so please do not arrive before 6 pm.
No, there will not be a shuttle. The Archer Hotel is about a 15 minute drive away from JM Cellars. We recommend carpooling, or getting a Lyft or Uber because parking is limited.
You will not need to pay for parking there will be a free valet service. Once again parking is limited so we recommend share ride services.
We love your kids—we really do. But due to covid protocols our guest list is limited. Only those listed on the invitation may attend.
July is perfect wedding season for Seattle. The weather after 4th of July is usually in the 75-80's range. (We are crossing our fingers!) With that said weather permitting we will be outside for most of the evening. You may want a sweater or light jacket for the later hours as the temperature cools.
You will be missed! If you can not make it to the wedding, please let us know as soon as possible and or RSVP "NO" so we can plan accordingly. Great news! We were able to livestream the event so be sure to check out at travislawtonproductions.com/sarahandmelissa

April 24th 2021. Please RSVP due to covid restrictions so we can plan accordingly. The RSVP tab is in the top headers of the website.
We would like to have an unplugged ceremony so please let our photographer and videographer do what they do best during the ceremony. At the reception however, we encourage guests to take pictures. If you would like to post them on your social media channels, our only request is that you tag each photo with our wedding hashtag #becomingthebryants so we can keep track of all of your pictures!
