FAQs

Question

Are you still having your wedding?

Answer

YES! Hurricane Helene did some damage in Banner Elk and the surrounding areas but our wedding venue was thankfully not touched. We are still having our wedding but we want all of our guests to be safe when traveling to the venue! Please allow yourself plenty of time when traveling to the venue as there will be delays due to some roads only having a one road lane!

Question

What time should I arrive at the ceremony?

Answer

Please arrive by 2:00 PM and give yourself plenty of time to park and find a seat. Guests are not allowed in once the ceremony starts.

Question

Can I bring a date?

Answer

Unfortunately due to limited venue capacity, we cannot accommodate additional guest. If you received a plus one, it will appear on your invitation. We want to keep our wedding intimate with our closest family and friends.

Question

Is there a dress code?

Answer

We want this event for our guests to dress up with us! We are requesting formal attire for our wedding. The link below is an idea of what to wear to our wedding! https://www.theknot.com/content/formal-wedding-attire

Question

Are there any colors I should avoid wearing?

Answer

We kindly ask that you avoid neutrals tones and other colors traditionally reserved for the bride such as white, cream, ivory or champagne colors.

Question

Are kids welcome?

Answer

Although we love children, the venue has limited capacity. Please enjoy this “date night” on us for this adult only celebration. Select children will be accommodated on an invitation only basis. Please refer to your personal invitation for further clarification.

Question

Do you have any hotel recommendations?

Answer

Yes! Many of our guests are from out of town so we blocked hotel rooms at the Holiday Inn in Boone, NC. Just note that the hotel will be approximately 25 minutes away from the venue. The Best Western in Banner Elk is not accepting hotel reservations as they have no running water which was affected by hurricane Helene.

Question

Is there parking on site?

Answer

Parking is limited to only 50 cars in the lot. If you decide to drive, we highly suggest carpooling. Take in consideration that the venue is up on a mountain and may contain winding roads depending on where you are coming from; therefore, we highly suggest a designated driver!

Question

Wedding Gifts

Answer

There is nothing better than celebrating our wedding day with you. If you would like to provide us with a gift, we would greatly appreciate a contribution to our honeymoon fund!

Question

What should I do if I can't make it?

Answer

You will be missed! If you are not able to make it, please let us know by RSVP “no” or contacting us directly as soon as possible so that we can plan accordingly.

Question

Will you have your dogs at the wedding?

Answer

YES! Our two goldendoodles, Koda and Nellie, will be present during the wedding! Our dogs are friendly and they will be off leash.
