Q + A
Can I bring a date/plus one?
Your invitation will be made out to “(Your Name) & Guest” if a plus one has been given to you. Thank you for understanding!
What is the dress code?
We would love to see our family and friends elegantly attired for our big day. Our dress code is black-tie optional. A black-tie optional dress code gives guests a few formal options to choose from. Men may wear a tuxedo, or may opt for a dark suit with tie. Women may choose either a formal evening gown, a shorter cocktail dress, or dressy separates. We kindly ask that you avoid colors traditionally reserved for the bride including whites, ivories, and creams.
What time should I arrive?
A time for the ceremony will be given on your formal invitation. We request that you arrive no later than 10 minutes before the ceremony. If you arrive after the ceremony has begun, please wait for directions on when you may enter the sanctuary.
Can we take photos during the wedding ceremony?
We kindly ask that you turn off all phones and cameras to be fully present with us during our ceremony and first dances. This will help avoid distractions and eliminate interference with our photographers.
Will there be a bar?
We will have full open bar service and respectfully ask that you enjoy libations responsibly.
Are there hotel accomodations?
Yes, information for the reserved hotels with blocks can be found under the travel tab of our website!
