FAQs

Question

Is there a dress code?

Answer

Think "Garden Party" attire...Sundresses, jumpsuits, maxi dresses, khakis, slacks, polos, button downs. Please no jeans or shorts. Heels not recommended due to any uneven natural ground. All events take place outdoors. It will likely be warm during the day, and cooler in the evening. You may want a sweater/jacket of some kind after the sun sets. You know we're both all about comfort, but we still want to be a little fancy for our big day. Please, wear your Chacos or flip flops if you'd like!

Question

Is there a shuttle?

Answer

No. Headwaters Farm is close enough to town that you will be able to easily Uber if desired. There is plenty of parking onsite.

Question

Are kids invited?

Answer

Yes, we love your kids too! Just remember they will need to be supervised. Your kids are individually listed on you RSVP, so make sure to respond accordingly. We have some guests who wouldn’t be able to attend if they couldn’t bring their kids. We also have some guests who are leaving the kids home to enjoy a date night/vacation without them. Do as suits your needs.

Question

Can I bring a guest?

Answer

If your invite has a guest listed, they will show up when you RSVP. If you have someone you'd like to bring as a guest by the time wedding day rolls around, please ask us first. As you know, wedding numbers are very important for a few reasons.

Question

Can I interact with the farm animals at the venue?

Answer

No, please do not interact with the animals. They will likely be in their barns resting anyway.

Question

Why do I need to RSVP so early?

Answer

Due to when vendors need a final count. If you’re traveling, you’ll likely know your plans well before May 22 anyway. Of course unexpected things happen - if your plans change after May 22, just let us know as soon as you can.

Question

Will I be able to visit with Jackie/Ian other than at the wedding?

Answer

Yes! We both have family and friends traveling and we’d love to be able to spend time with you. We’re planning on taking time off before and after the wedding to be able to visit. As a reminder, Bend gets lots of tourists in the summer. The weekend after our wedding is July 4 weekend, and we’d recommend avoiding this super busy time (unless of course that’s the type of vacation you’re looking for!) We will be planning some gatherings and posting those closer to time, but let us know your travel plans as well, so we know when we’ll be able to see you!

Question

What if there is a COVID spike or restrictions at this time?

Answer

There are just too many unknowns and lots of options we could utilize. We don’t have an answer right now and will figure it out if we need to. Getting vaccinated, if you can and haven’t yet, would be a good first step to increase everyone’s safety.
