Wedding Survival Guide

Useful Info for the Big Day
  • After the church ceremony, we'll take a moment to receive congratulations from guests who won’t be joining us for the reception. But no worries! Once we arrive at the reception venue, you will also have the chance to congratulate us.

  • • Skip the mother-in-law jokes!

    • Don't ask the groom if he's really sure about this.

    • Refrain from commenting on our music choices.

    • Ladies, do not wear white! (And that includes ivory, off-white, and anything remotely resembling white. It's a scientifically proven fact that if someone other than the bride wears white at a wedding, one of the bridesmaids will, completely by accident, of course, spill wine or another highly pigmented liquid on them before dinner. So, let’s just honor the bride, shall we?)

  • We know that money can’t buy happiness… but we’d still like to give it a shot! Instead of a traditional gift, we’d appreciate it if you placed your contribution in an envelope.

    You’ll have the opportunity to give your gift during the congratulations at the reception venue.

  • No need for a tux or an Oscar-worthy gown, but let’s leave the sweatpants at home! Gentlemen, a shirt and suit will do just fine. Ladies, time to dust off that elegant dress you’ve been saving for "just the right occasion"!

  • We’d love for everyone to be fully present during the church ceremony, so please leave the photography and filming to the professionals. Don’t worry, we’ll share all the photos with you later!
