FAQs

Question

When do I need to plan to arrive?

Answer

Our wedding celebration will start in the late afternoon on Saturday, June 6th. We recommend booking travel to arrive the day before, on Friday June 5th, and spending some time out in Raleigh. Make sure to check out Our Favorite Spots for ideas! Arriving on Saturday is also an option, but make sure to build in time to get ready and get to the venue!

Question

Where can I stay in Raleigh?

Answer

For those traveling in from out of town, we have hotel room blocks reserved at two different hotels. Both of these hotels are located in Downtown Raleigh and are within a 10-minute walk from our After Party location. Visit the Travel page on this website for links to book within our block for discounted rates! Rooms are limited and booking will close on May 5th, 2026. The Casso, Raleigh - $229 per night (+tax) Hampton Inn and Suites - $189 per night (+tax) You are welcome to look at AirBnb/VRBO, or any other hotels, as well!

Question

Will the event be indoors or outdoors?

Answer

Our wedding Ceremony and Cocktail Hour are planned to be outdoors. Dinner and our Reception will be in the barn, possibly spreading outside! Keep in mind that North Carolina in June is typically very hot and humid.

Question

Can I bring a date?

Answer

Due to space constraints, we can only accommodate named guests on your invitation (which will follow closer to the date). We appreciate your understanding.

Question

Are kids welcome?

Answer

We love your little ones, but we kindly ask for no children at the wedding, except for those in our immediate family. Treat this as a special date night - come party and enjoy!

Question

What is the dress code?

Answer

The dress code is Semi-Formal/Garden Cocktail Attire.

Question

What should I wear?

Answer

Ladies, please wear anything except for white! We would love to see your florals or summer colors. Gentlemen, please wear a nice dress shirt and blazer, though you are welcome to take off the blazer if it gets too hot. We recommend NOT to wear stiletto heels. While the reception space is a solid floor, we will be using multiple spaces in our lovely venue throughout the evening, and you may be walking across multiple surface including grass, dirt, and gravel.

Question

How do I get to the venue?

Answer

Uber/Lyft is a great option for getting around the Raleigh area! You should have no issue getting a rideshare on the way there. You are welcome to drive to the venue, or carpool with others. There is plenty of parking there. If you drink too much and don't feel comfortable driving home, you can leave your car overnight BUT will need to pick it up the following day, Sunday, between 12pm - 5pm only. Please make sure to drive slowly when on venue property.

Question

How do I get back from the venue?

Answer

We will have party buses after the Reception to take people back to downtown Raleigh, from where you can head home or to your hotel - or keep the night going with us at our After Party! A RSVP for these party buses will be done later on, and unless space allows, only those who RSVP will have a space on the bus. Our venue is located outside of Raleigh, where there may be fewer Uber/Lyft cars available, especially if many people are trying to call rides at the same time. Rideshares are still an option, but wait times or prices may be affected by a larger demand. If you plan to drive yourself or others after the event, please be responsible and make good choices when leaving.

Question

Is the property accessible?

Answer

Yes, the barn floor is solid/paved and has handicap parking just outside the entrance. We will have an ATV available for anyone needing additional assistance getting around the property!

Question

How do I RSVP?

Answer

We will send out invitations that will include information for how and when to RSVP. If you already know that you sadly can't make it, please do let us know as soon as possible!
