We plan to have our entire wedding day outside! Our ceremony will be outside in the meadow, and our cocktail hour will be in the garden space with dinner and dancing following under the outdoor tent. In case of weather, we plan to hold our entire wedding day under the outdoor tent.
We would love to see our family and friends dress up for our big day! We kindly request formal attire. For the gentlemen we ask for a light or dark suit with a tie, and for the ladies any tea length, ankle length, or floor length dresses, or fancier floor length jumpsuits. We encourage you to have fun with your outfit choices as it is the last day of summer, feel free to encompass linen or seersucker for the gentlemen, and florals, prints, or texture for the ladies! Please consider the grass when selecting heel options as well.
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!
We love your little ones! However, we have decided to keep our wedding and reception an adults-only event, and we encourage our guests to use this evening as a date night!
You will be missed! If you cannot attend our wedding please indicate your regrets on our RSVP tab prior to August 21st so we can plan accordingly.
We are having an "unplugged ceremony", meaning that once the ceremony begins, we ask that all phones be put away and silenced. We want everyone to be fully present with us and for our photographer to be able to capture this moment for us. We promise to share our photos as soon as we receive them, and after the ceremony, feel free to take as many photos and videos as you'd like!
