FAQs

The Wedding Website of Madeleine Bellard and Matthew Wall
Question

When should I RSVP by?

Answer

If you are able to RSVP as soon as you receive your invitation, that would be extremely helpful! We kindly ask that you RSVP by June 1st. After that, any unanswered invites will have to be marked as "not attending" due to vendors' cut off dates. Please reach out to Matt regarding any questions with RSVP’s!

Question

Can I bring a plus one/are children invited?

Answer

While we wish we could extend an invitation to all of our guests plus ones and children, we are keeping our celebration as intimate as possible and are only able to accommodate those specifically listed on your invitation.

Question

Is there a dress code?

Answer

We ask that our family and friends join us in dressing up for the occasion! We are requesting formal attire. For men, this means tuxedos (strongly encouraged) or suits. For women, long and midi dresses are appropriate. Avoid white, cream, and ivory dresses for (hopefully) obvious reasons. We encourage block heels or flats, as you will be primarily on grass.

Question

When should I arrive by?

Answer

We kindly ask that guests arrive 30 minutes before the ceremony begins so that you can park, find a seat, and get settled before "I do."

Question

Is the venue indoors or outdoors?

Answer

Our events will take place outdoors except for our after party! We will be moving from the tent to the barn for late night festivities at 10pm.

Question

What do I eat if I have a dietary restriction?

Answer

We are working closely with our vendors to ensure that we can accommodate all dietary requirements. On your RSVP, please indicate any dietary restrictions or allergies so we can notify our vendors accordingly. While we can't accommodate all preferences, we are doing our best to plan a meal that is edible for everyone!

Question

Parking & Transportation

Answer

Parking is available on-site. We will be providing shuttle transportation to and from our event from both hotels listed on the "Travel" page of this website. As we get closer to the event, we will share details about the timing of the shuttles. We want you to celebrate with us, but the only way we will have a good time is knowing our guests are drinking responsibly! If you're struggling to find a way back at the end of the night, leave your car on-site, and we will get a ride for you. Parking is safe and on private property.

Question

Will there be an open bar?

Answer

Yep! Have fun, drink responsibly, don't drive!

Question

Have another question?

Answer

Please reach out to Matt or Maddy any time leading up to August 8! Day of, all bets are off!

Question

Are you really changing your last names to Wallard?

Answer

Ask Matt and the answer is no. Ask Maddy and you might get a different answer! Brad + Angelina = Brangelina. Ben + Jennifer = Bennifer. Justin + Selena = Jelena. Spenser + Heidi = Speidi. Wall + Bellard = Wallard!!!!!!
