We are getting very close to the big day! We are very excited and looking forward to seeing everyone. Things to let us know:
1. Can you make it?
If you haven’t already, please RSVP as soon as you can! You can drop either of us an email, give us a call, or send us your response card.
2. Do you need any help?
We are doing our best to coordinate travel plans, so if you need a ride to or from the airport, from one of the main hotels to the wedding, or if you would like to see about sharing a hotel room with others, let us know and we will try to help! Also feel free to ask us for advice about travel arrangements or things to do in the area.
3. Do you have any special needs?
For the reception, let us know if you have any special dietary needs (i.e. vegan, lactose-free, wheat-free, etc.) and catering should be able to accommodate you. Also, if any parents out there need highchairs or booster seats for the kids, let us know so we can request them. Remember that everything will be outside!
