Where are you registered?
We've decided to forgo the traditional wedding registry and ask that guests instead contribute to our honeymoon fund. The fund can be found under the registry tab!
Who does my invitation include?
Your invitation is for you and the guests that appear on the screen once you enter your name in the RSVP box. Once you enter your name, you will have the option to RSVP for your entire household/family. If you've been given a plus one, it will also populate at this time. Please make sure to edit your plus one's name/ family name so that everyone can be properly included in our seating arrangement :) If you do not see a name listed under your RSVP other than yours, you have not been given a plus one.
What happens if I don't RSVP?
It is with regret that we will not be able to allow you to participate in any of the wedding day festivities.
What happens if I show up with people not on the guestlist?
It is with regret that we will not be able to seat any additional people outside of the official guest list.
What happens if I RSVP but can't make it?
We ask that you please let us know immediately that you cannot make it so that we can adjust our seating and budget. Please do not RSVP and then no call no show.
What's the dress code?
Our dress code is Black Tie Affair. This includes formal gowns, suits, and tuxedos. Dresses of this nature are long and should be in an evening appropriate fabric (velvet, chiffon, silk, or lace) No flip flops, gym shoes, house shoes, baseball caps, sweat suits, jeans, mini-skirts or dresses, knee length skirts or dresses, or complete see through material. Lastly: NO WHITE
What are your wedding colors?
Navy, Forest Green, and Baby Yellow! If you'd like to wear any of these colors, please do. We simply ask that you stick as closely to the colors named and references provided below, as possible.
For example: Baby Yellow is not Canary Yellow. Forest Green is not Lime Green. Navy is not Royal Blue!

What is an unplugged ceremony?
An unplugged ceremony means that there won't be any technological distractions during the physical wedding ceremony. After we jump the broom, you'll get your device back. When you arrive, our coordinator will have you silence your phone and drop it in a small personal bag with a tag. You'll write your name on the tag, and leave your small bag with your phone on a table that you can see. We know life is busy; so we want to help our guests focus on the moment and be present with us. There will be plenty of time for personal photos and video after the ceremony. Plus, we've hired a professional photographer and videographer to capture the entire day :)
Are kids allowed?
While we love each of the children in both of our family's, and recognize it is Mother's Day; we have decided to not include children in our wedding day. We'd really like to host the adults for a day of celebration, love, and fun where they can truly cut loose!
Are you allowing late seating?
Unfortunately, no. Weddings are a huge event, with many moving parts and people. With this, we have to stay on schedule. Please arrive at the times provided on your invitation and this website. Make sure you're checking back periodically to see if there have been any changes made :)
Is there parking at the venue?
There's plenty of street parking (free and pay to park) surrounding the venue.
Are you all already married?
Yes! Tevin and I married May 11, 2019 at the justice of the peace in downtown Chicago, IL with no witnesses. The day of the ceremony will be one day after our fifth year marriage anniversary, a very special day indeed.
Is there a bar?
Now y'all know we like to party! There's an open bar, but we do ask that you bring cash to tip your bartenders :) Open bar is from cocktail hour until last call. Find the details of those times on the home page.
