Things to Do

Registry

What should I wear?Whatever makes you feel great! Whether it’s a dress, skirt, jeans, khakis, heels, or sneakers—come as you are and don’t forget your best accessory: a smile. We’re just excited to celebrate with you! Will the wedding be held indoors or outdoors?Weather permitting, the ceremony will take place outdoors, with the reception to follow in an open-air barn. If Mother Nature has other plans, we'll move the ceremony to a covered pavilion nearby. There will be a short walk between locations, so if rain is in the forecast, we recommend bringing a jacket and umbrella just in case. Can I bring a plus one?As much as we’d love to celebrate with everyone, due to space and budget constraints, we kindly ask that you only bring the guests listed on your invitation. Thank you for understanding! Will alcohol be served?Yes! There will be alcohol served during the reception. We encourage you to plan ahead and arrange safe transportation—your well-being means everything to us. Will transportation be provided?We won’t be providing transportation, as accommodations are spread out and logistically tricky to coordinate. That said, Ubers and Lyfts are generally available in the area—just be sure to check availability ahead of time, especially if you're staying in a more remote location.
