What is the dress code?
We would love to see our family and friends get dressed up for our big day! The dress code for the wedding is black-tie. Men are asked to wear a black tuxedo. Women may choose either a floor-length evening dress or a formal jumpsuit. Please refrain from wearing white, off-white, or cream.
For the Welcome Party, the dress code is cocktail attire. Men are encouraged to wear a suit or pants and a sport coat, and women are asked to wear a cocktail or midi dress.
What time should I arrive for the ceremony?
The ceremony will begin promptly at 5:00pm. To ensure a timely start, we ask that all guests arrive at the venue by 4:30pm to allow time for seating.
Can I take pictures?
While we love that you want to capture our special moments, we kindly request an unplugged ceremony to allow everyone to be fully present and immersed in the experience. We have hired an incredible photographer who will be capturing all the highlights that we will share with you afterwards. Following the ceremony, we encourage guests to take as many photos as they would like!
May I bring a date?
Your invitation will be made out to "[Your name] & Guest" if a plus one has been given to you. Due to limited capacity, we can only allow the people named on your invitation. We ask that you do not bring a guest unless otherwise specified on your invitation.
Are children invited?
While we love your little ones, we have decided to make our wedding an adults-only affair. We appreciate you making arrangements ahead of time and hope you can enjoy a parents' date night to celebrate with us!
