When do I RSVP?

Please RSVP via this website by February 8.

Do I really need to RSVP?

Yes! We need formal responses from everyone, even if you have already told us you’re planning to attend. This is so that our wedding planner can capture your dietary restrictions, accommodation needs, etc.

I don’t see the RSVP page!

The RSVP page will close after the RSVP deadline on February 8. If you are checking prior to this date and still do not see the RSVP page, please email our planner at planning@gardeniawed.com to see if maybe there is an error with the website. If you are checking after the RSVP deadline, please email our planner at planning@gardeniawed.com to see if it would be possible to squeeze you in.

Can I bring a plus one?

When you go to the RSVP page online, it will note whether or not we were able to allot a plus one. We are limiting additional guests to ensure we are celebrating with our closest friends and family. We also have to consider the venue's allowed capacity. If there is someone you would really like to bring, please reach out to us far in advance from the wedding date. There will not be extra seating for unexpected guests.

The guest on my invite can't come, can I bring someone else instead?

Please check with us first, especially if we don’t personally know the guest you would be bringing instead.

Are children allowed?

Your child(ren) should be included within your invitation on the RSVP page. If they are not, please let us know as soon as possible so we can make arrangements if possible. We kindly ask that you do not just show up with them as we need to provide our vendors with accurate guest counts beforehand.

I originally declined, but now I’m available! Can I still come?

That’s so great! If the RSVP page is still live on the website, you can simply change your RSVP response there. If the RSVP page is closed, please email our wedding planner at planning@gardeniawed.com to confirm if the additional seat can still be added.

What if I can no longer attend?

We totally understand that life happens, but if you need to cancel, we kindly ask that you email our wedding planner at planning@gardeniawed.com instead of texting us directly. As the big day gets closer, we’ll be juggling a lot, and receiving last-minute texts can feel a little overwhelming. Our planner will make sure everything gets updated on the backend. Feel free to reach out to us after the wedding—we’d still love to hear from you then!

What time should I arrive?

The ceremony will begin promptly at 4:15pm. Please plan to arrive between 3:45-4:00pm. Please do not arrive extremely early (45+ minutes). Arriving significantly early will cause us to be hidden away sooner than planned, shortening our time for any pre-ceremony photos.

What should I wear?

We are requesting semi-formal attire. Because we understand “semi-formal” can mean different things to different people, feel free to reference this curated Pinterest board: https://bit.ly/3YFdo1q. Please also remember to avoid wearing white, cream, or ivory dresses or suits.

How is parking?

There is a complimentary self-parking lot at the venue. However, if you plan to celebrate with a few adult beverages throughout the night, we strongly encourage using a rideshare service such as Uber or Lyft.

What’s the bar situation?

We are happy to provide an open bar! We do recommend bringing some cash to tip the bartender as well as your ID just in case.

Can I bring my own alcohol?

No! We will be charged a fine if any outside alcohol is brought to the venue.

Can I take pictures during the wedding?

Please do not take photos or use your phone during the ceremony. We have a professional photographer who will be capturing all of the beautiful moments, and a cell phone is a very unsightly photobomb. Please also do not bring any sort of professional camera or block the photographer. Feel free to take plenty of photos during reception!

I have more questions!

Please email our wedding planner at planning@gardeniawed.com. Please also try to avoid texting us questions the week of the wedding. Feel free to also call or text our planner at 602-529-3430 the week of the wedding.
