We are excited to see everyone dressed up in their semi-formal attire! The venue is outdoors on various terrain, so please be mindful when choosing footwear. Indoor changing facilities will be provided for the optional casual hour!! If participating in basketball or volleyball, please bring appropriate clothing to change into. There will be additional lawn games that will not require changing from the semi-formal attire. *** Please avoid all things white :)

Question

Can I bring a date or friend?

Answer

Unless you were allotted a "Plus One" on the RSVP, please do not bring an additional guest. If necessary, contact the bride for permission 30 days prior to the wedding.

Question

I know Billy has epilepsy, what happens if he has a seizure?

Answer

We have planned our wedding event around the possibility of a seizure to ensure the best wedding experience possible for Billy! We hope to have a more relaxed environment and schedule throughout the evening to promote less stress, however it also provides us with flexibility to adjust the schedule if Billy were to have a seizure. In the event of a seizure, please do not crowd Billy and continue enjoying the event. The designated family members will assist Billy through his seizure and he will recover for a short period of time in a designated seizure recovery area. Do not panic nor call 911 unless asked to do so! Not only could Billy have a grand-mal seizure, but he also experiences Focal and Photosensitive seizures. This means while you are talking to him, he might not be able to complete his sentences or remember the beginning of the conversation. He will be very overwhelmed on this day, so please be patient if he is seeming confused!! Due to the photosensitive seizures, as minimal flash photography as possible will be used.
