FAQs
Question
Why St. Augustine?!
Answer
From Hannah - My mom, Chris, was born and raised in St. Augustine Beach, and most of her family still lives in the St. Augustine/Jacksonville area. I grew up taking summer trips to Florida, always to celebrate the 4th of July. I have the best memories of fireworks on the beach, playing with my cousins at my Gramma and Papa's house, and riding four wheelers on my Aunt and Uncle's farm. Brock has joined us on many of the annual trips that we still take to visit family in St. Augustine, and we knew we wanted to get married somewhere significant to our families and to us. We can't wait to share the beautiful beaches and history of St. Augustine with all of you!

Is there a dress code?
Answer
The ceremony and reception are black tie optional - we love a tux, but don't feel obligated to wear one! Men should feel comfortable in a suit or tux.
