| Q + A |

Are you only having a reception? πŸͺ©

Short answer, no. We are having a ceremony as well. However, our ceremony venue is quite small, so we've had to restrict the number of guests invited to that portion of our day. That said, we would love to celebrate with everyone, so we've booked a larger venue for our reception so we can keep the party going! (Open bar included)

How do I RSVP? 🎟️

Please RSVP using our website! Mailing back traditional RSVP notes takes forever and stalls the process (not to mention wasted postage) so we are tracking everything online. Non-local guests will still receive a "Save the Date" card from us in the mail with our wedding website. Once you're there, enter your name, it will prompt you to RSVP.

Will transportation be provided? 🚐

We will provide a shuttle service from ceremony venue to the reception venue for those attending both. It's not required that you use the shuttle, just an option! We tried to be intentional about our hotel recommendations, so if you booked one of our recs, you should be able to walk to your hotel room at the end of the night. If not, we recommend Uber or Lyft to get home at the end of the night.

Will we be indoors or outdoors? β›…

The ceremony will be outdoors on the patio of our venue. In the event of inclement weather, they do have an indoor space and we can pivot if need be. For the main event, we will be indoors, but will have access to their outdoor area as well if you need to catch some air.

Can I bring my kids? πŸ§’πŸ»

We love kids. However, our venue is not kid-friendly so please enjoy a night out and leave the little ones at home. Same goes for fur-babies, sorry.

What's for dinner? 🍽️

We will not be having any kind of formal, sit-down dinner, but we will have catering (TBD) at the reception where you'll be able to serve yourself. You can find our caterer's information on the Itinerary page with a link to the menu. We will do our best to order a variety of options to accommodate dietary needs but we might not get it perfect so please plan accordingly. Eat, drink and be merry!

But what will I wear? πŸ‘—

Cocktail casual works for us! No need to go all out, just whatever makes you feel fabulous.

Do you have a registry? 🎁

(Coming soon) Our registry will be linked on our wedding website IF you wish to purchase something for us (although your presence is what we want most). Truthfully, we would prefer a donation to our cash fund for a future honeymoon. If it's important to you to bring a physical gift, there will be a few selections to choose from.

What if I still have questions? ❓

Too bad. (just kidding) Take a peek at all our navigation pages to see if the answer to your question isn't lingering in the details someplace else. If not - feel free to text one of us and we'll be happy to help!
