FAQs

Question

When should I RSVP by?

Answer

If we do not receive your RSVP by December 1st, it will automatically be marked as "Declined."

Question

What should I do if I cannot make it?

Answer

If you are unable to make it to the wedding, please let us know as soon as possible and RSVP "no", so we can plan accordingly.

Question

What time should I arrive at the ceremony?

Answer

Please arrive at the venue no later than 4:00pm, 30 minutes before the ceremony. This will allow time for you park and take your seat. If you arrive after the start of the ceremony, you will not be seated and will have to wait until the start of cocktail hour.

Question

Is there a dress code?

Answer

Yes! Black Tie! Please NO WHITE!

Question

Can I bring a plus one?

Answer

Due to limited capacity we are only able to accommodate those formally invited. If you received a plus one, it will be addressed on your invitation and RSVP card.

Question

Is the wedding indoor or outdoor?

Answer

Both. The ceremony will be outdoors (weather permitting). The cocktail hour and reception will be indoors.

Question

Is there parking for the ceremony or reception?

Answer

Yes! The parking lot is located on Polk Street (directly across the street from Merrimon-Wynne). The following are driving directions: Traveling down Blount Street from Peace Street, you will pass The Merrimon-Wynne House on your left. Take an immediate left on Polk Street and the parking lot will be located on your right between Blount and Person Street. Traveling down Person Street from Downtown Raleigh, you will turn left on Polk Street and the parking lot entrance will be on your left, just past The Burning Coal Theater.

Question

Can I record during the ceremony?

Answer

We are having an "UNPLUGGED" ceremony. We've hired professionals to capture photos/videos and we'd hate for someone's device to block that. We ask that you do not record until after the ceremony.
