FAQs

Question

Is the wedding outdoors or indoors?

Answer

The wedding is indoors! If you want to go outside, there is a deck with a beautiful view of the sanctuary that people can hang out on, and there will be a citronella candle out there on a candle warmer to help keep the mosquitos away as the sun goes down.

Question

Are masks required?

Answer

We ask that anyone who is not vaccinated please wear a mask, even though they are not required in and around the Science Resource Center during our event. Desiree and Tyler are both fully vaccinated and we hope that many of our guests will also be vaccinated. If you'd like to explore other parts of the property like the museum or gift shop, they do require masks.

Question

Can I bring a date?

Answer

If your invitation says "and Guest", then yes. If not, we would prefer if it was just you.

Question

Are kids invited?

Answer

Yes! If you'd like to bring your children, they're welcome to join in the celebration.

Question

Can I edit my RSVP?

Answer

Yes! You can go back and edit your RSVP after you submit it. This includes any notes or questions within in your RSVP, like what dish you are bringing.

Question

What is a first look?

Answer

A first look is time set aside before the ceremony where the bride and groom see each other for the first time on the wedding day. It is usually pre-arranged with their wedding photographer in a private place to capture that moment just for them.

Question

What is handfasting?

Answer

Handfasting is a symbolic unity ritual in which a couple stand face to face as their hands are tied together - hence the phrase, tying the knot!. As your hands are bound, you can recite words that express your commitment to one another. Handfasting rituals are associated with Pagan ceremonies, but are now often seen in secular, spiritual, and even some Christian ceremonies. This ritual is used to symbolize the binding together of the couples' separate lives and the commitment they're making together.
