FAQs

Question

I have a food allergy, can I make a special request?

Answer

Please let us know if you have an allergy- the bride has a severe peanut allergy so there will be NO peanuts at the wedding

Question

Is there transportation to and from the hotels to the ceremony?

Answer

If you are not immediate family or the bridal party- you are responsible for your own transportation. The ceremony and the reception are about 5 minutes away from each other. The best recommendation is to Uber or Lyft. There are plenty of them around Fredericksburg at reasonable prices.

Question

Is there parking for the ceremony or reception?

Answer

There are limited spaces for both venues- please plan accordingly.

Question

Will I have to wear a mask during the ceremony?

Answer

In Virginia, we are currently in Phase 3 which requires patrons to wear masks in public facilities. Our Pastor has requested the guests wear masks, but the Wedding Party and the Bride and Groom's immediate family will not be wearing one. Masks will be provided for you at the ceremony.

Question

Will I have to wear a mask at the reception?

Answer

No. In the state of Virginia, we are currently in Phase 3 that separates private and public policies. The Old Silk Mill is a private venue and does NOT require guests to wear a mask. If you would like to wear one, masks will be provided. The staff will be wearing masks and gloves the entire time.

Question

What if I don't feel safe coming because of COVID-19?

Answer

Our first priority is the safety of our loved ones. We understand that not everyone will feel comfortable attending and will certainly be missed. Please do not feel obligated to attend if you do not feel comfortable.
