Frequently Asked Questions
What should I wear for the ceremony?
Sunday best, but please do not sacrifice comfort for style.
Should I bring food to the ceremony?
Nope. Theodora and I will be your caters for the ceremony because we love cooking for others. If you would like to bring your favorite drink though you are more than welcomed to.
What should I wear for the weekend activities?
There will be a mix of indoor and outdoor activities throughout the weekend. Dress comfortably and wear your favorite walking shoes.
What are our breakfast food options in the morning before activities?
Your hotel has food options in the lobby if you want a quick snack or light breakfast. If you would like us to provide snacks, let us know in advance and we will create a snack pack for you. If you are with us and hungry, let us know and we will get you food.
Are gifts expected?
Nope. We do not need any more material things. The fact that our special humans are here with us means more to us than anything else. We will have a registry for the big wedding on April 10th 2027.
Do I need to rent a car?
Nope. We have enough locals and cars to handle transportation. We will make sure everything is taken care of. If you are staying at the Crystal Gateway Marriott hotel, then everything you could need should be within a 5 minute walk.
Is there a ceremony rehearsal?
Nope. The Friday dinner might seem like a rehearsal dinner, but there is no rehearsal. This is a small civil ceremony with a weekend of activities to go with it.
Can I take photos during the ceremony?
Yes, but we have a photographer so please enjoy the moment.
What if I have dietary restrictions?
Please let us know in advance and we will accommodate.
