FAQs

The Wedding Website of Emily Swingle and Ryan Despres
If you have any other questions or concerns aside from what is listed below, please feel free to reach out to Ryan or Emily.
Question

What is the dress code?

Answer

Dress code is formal/cocktail attire. We'd love to see our family and friends get dressed up for our big day. For example: We suggest that men wear a suit or dress shirt, and ladies wear a midi-or-knee length dress or dressy separates. NO jeans please!

Question

Can I bring a date?

Answer

Due to limited space, we are only able to accommodate those guests formally invited on your wedding invitation. If you received a plus one they will appear under your name when you RSVP. If you are still unsure if you have been given a plus one please reach out to us. Thank you for understanding!

Question

Are kids invited?

Answer

We love your little ones! However, we have decided to keep our wedding and reception an adults-only event. We encourage you to use this as an excuse for a kid free evening and to enjoy the party with us!

Question

will there be a bar?

Answer

Yes! OPEN BAR: A variety of specialty cocktails, beer, wine, seltzer's, and non alcoholic beverages are on us! Please drink responsibly and arrange for a safe ride home!

Question

will the wedding take place indoors or outside?

Answer

The ceremony will take place outside (weather permitting), cocktail hour and reception will have opportunities to be both indoors and outside. Buffet style dinner will be served indoors.

Question

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

Answer

You will be missed! If you cannot attend our wedding, please indicate your regrets by responding "NOT attending" on your RSVP so we can plan accordingly.

Question

can I take pictures?

Answer

We are doing our best to have an "unplugged ceremony" (this means that phones be put away and on silent during the ceremony) The greatest gift you can give us is being fully present as we say "I do". We have hired professionals to capture these special moments for us, and we promise to share photos and videos as soon as we receive them. AFTER the ceremony, feel free to take as many photos and videos as you'd like, but we kindly ask that you stay out of the professionals way so they're able to capture everything as well!

Question

What happens if I miss the RSVP deadline?

Answer

We kindly ask that you RSVP no later than May 31st, 2025. We must give our final numbers to our venue and caterer in a timely manner. If you do not reply by May 31st, 2025, please bring a chair and a sandwich.
