When should I RSVP?
 Formal invitations will be delivered by the end of July. Please have your RSVP submitted by September 1st, 2025 at the latest.

Are children allowed to attend?
This will be an adults-only celebration. While we love the little ones in our lives, we are asking that our guests do not bring children to events on Friday or Saturday.
Kids are welcome at the beach hangout on Sunday!

Am I allowed to bring a plus one?
Unless a plus one option is indicated on your RSVP form, you should plan to only bring yourself!

Will the wedding be indoors or outdoors?
Our wedding will be an indoor-outdoor affair. The ceremony and reception will be indoors. But our cocktail hour and dinner will be on the porch. We're keeping our fingers crossed for good weather and mild temperatures, as is typical for this time of year in Wrightsville Beach.
Expected temps: 76°F for the high and 65°F for the low

What does 'black tie optional' mean?
For Men: A tuxedo is delightful, but a nice dark colored suit is also dashing. 
For Women: A gown is lovely, but a formal midi length dress is also fitting.
Wear something that you think is elegant and won't look out of place mingling with tuxedos!

Will dinner be served on Friday at the welcome party?
You should plan to eat dinner before or after our Welcome Party. We'll be serving beer, wine, and light snacks; but not a full meal on the boat. See the travel page for dinner options both near the boat dock in downtown Wilmington or closer to our wedding venue on Wrightsville Beach.

Will there be a time gap between your wedding ceremony and reception?
Our cocktail hour will immediately follow our ceremony.

Will there be accommodations for dietary restrictions?
Yes, we are very cognizant of our guests' restrictions. There will be a space for you to mark your dietary restrictions in the RSVP form.

Is there parking at the venue?
Yes, there is a parking lot at our wedding venue for you to park in! Cars may be left overnight and picked up the next day. Be sure to have your car removed by noon on Sunday.
