Frequently Asked Questions and Other Info

First, we made a boo boo. I did not account for daylight savings in setting the time for the ceremony. At present, a 4pm ceremony only gives us about an hour of light. We would like to move the ceremony up to 3pm. I will send out a final announcement on Monday with a complete schedule of events, but please let me know in hte meantime if there is a conflict in moving the start time.

I thought I'd answer a few questions that seem to be lingering.

What should I wear? Cocktail attire is great for those invited to the rehearsal dinner. It is a mid range restaurant with no dress code that I'm aware of .

The Ceremony and Rehearsal will be held next to the beach, but it is a paved and covered area. It is always breezy by the water and the tempurature has been colder than average by about 15 degrees. We're hoping for an indian summer, but suggest you plan to have a jacket. I would just plan to layer. I will be in a fairly formal gown. Daryl won't be wearing a tux or jacket. I believe my Dad plans on wearing a suit. Suits and ties not necessary. Heels are fine since the area is paved. We'll have a couple of heat lamps as well. And, don't forget your swimsuits/wetsuits if you're going to brave a dip!

What should I bring? We are just happy to have this amazing turnout! Currently we expect 60 people. You can refer to the Registry Info article for more information.

How can I help? Let me know when you will be in town and make sure I have a way to reach you and I promise I will give you some assignments. We've got lots of little projects planned for the week that we could use some help getting wrapped up. There will be lots of last minute stuff, too.

Is it OK to bring my children? Yes! We would love to see as much of your family as you can bring! We understand how much expense and coordination it takes to get the whole family out, so we don't expect everyone to show up with their posse, but children are invited to participate in all aspects of our event. We will probably ask for some volunteer babysitters at different points to keep an eye on the little ones when needed, so be sure you'll have some help. We have a lot of experienced & loving arms expected.

If you haven't done so yet, please RSVP, especially if you are a YES. I think we can guess the rest of the replies as "REGRETS," but I'd like to have a fairly solid headcount to start planning out the food and rental situation.

OK, let me know if there is anything else I can answer. I'll post a complete schedule of events on Monday. Please refer to the website for any last minute changes or additions to the schedule. It's getting close!
