We are absolutely thrilled to have you join us in celebrating this special occasion! Your presence means the world to us, and your generosity truly touches our hearts. In lieu of traditional gifts, we kindly ask that you consider giving physical currency to support our newlywed fund. An envelope box will be provided at the wedding venue for all gifts and donations. Your support will help us create unforgettable memories as we embark on this new journey together. Thank you for being a part of our joyous celebration. Your love and well-wishes mean everything to us.
If we did not get an RSVP back by the date in which we have provided, it has been marked as a "Declined." We will miss you celebrating with us, however, it is vital to provide a total guest count to the venue in the timely manner they have given to us, and cannot accept late RSVPs due to this. Thank you for understanding!
While we love your little ones, our wedding is going to be an adults-only event with the exception of those in the bridal party. We appreciate you making the arrangements ahead of time and leaving the kids at home so you can celebrate with us!
We are so excited to celebrate this day with our nearest and dearest! As we have a strict guest list to stay within our venue's capacity and our budget, we can only accommodate those listed on your specific invitation. Thank you for understanding!
We want to see you dress to impress! We are excited to have a formal, black tie optional, wedding and ask all women to wear a floor-length formal gown and men to wear either a suit and tie or a tuxedo! There is no specific color we would like our guests to wear, however we do request no white or red. Thank you!
Our ceremony will be unplugged. For this, we ask all phones and cameras to be put away and there to be no photos or videos taken. You are more than welcome to take photos and/or videos throughout the course of the reception! This is such a special day for us and we have the most amazing photography and videography team documenting our entire day, that way you are able to take it all in, celebrate, and be in the moment with us!
You can absolutely wear heels if you feel confident walking in them! Just a heads-up — the venue is in the middle of the forest, so some paths (like between the ceremony and reception or to the shuttle) might be a little tricky. The ceremony and reception areas themselves are compacted dirt and should be heel-friendly. If you're not totally comfortable in heels, we suggest wearing a chunky heel or flats for easier walking.
As we get closer to the big day, we’ll have a better idea of the forecast. Since the venue is in the forest on a mountain, it may be a little chilly—especially in the evening. We'll have heaters set up throughout the venue to help keep things cozy, but if you tend to run cold, we recommend bringing a coat or some kind of outer layer just in case.
Shuttles will pick up guests in front of the Fairfield Hotel in Oakhurst and drop everyone off at the wedding venue. After the celebration, guests will be picked up from the same spot where they were dropped off. Shuttle times will be finalized once we receive all RSVPs so we can plan the number of trips and shuttles needed. There will be a sign posted at the pickup/drop-off location with the shuttle schedule once it’s set.
While we definitely encourage guests to take the shuttle—especially since there will be an open bar and the roads back into town are windy and dark—you’re absolutely welcome to drive yourself if you prefer. If you choose to drive, there will be staff at the venue entrance to guide you to the parking lot closest to the wedding area.
