Q & A
What is the dress code?
The dress code is black tie. This includes tuxedos for men and floor-length gowns for women. We encourage women to wear color, and embrace the southern coastal atmosphere! Women should also consider block heels or wedges as the ceremony and reception will take place outdoors on grass and gravel.
When and how should I RSVP?
RSVPs are mailed and we would appreciate your response by September 18, 2025.
Can I bring a plus one?
To ensure an intimate atmosphere, we kindly ask that only those listed on the invitation attend. Thank you for being such an important part of our lives—we can’t wait to celebrate with you!
What time should I arrive for the ceremony?
The ceremony will begin promptly at 5 pm. We kindly ask that guests arrive no later than 4:45 pm.
What is the easiest way to get to and from the venues?
We encourage you to carpool or use rideshare services for transportation as there is limited parking available at all venues for the weekend.
