• What do I need to bring to Ireland?

    Please bring your passport and any necessary travel documents, Euros (not pounds, unless you plan to travel to Northern Ireland!), and your best dancing shoes.

  • What is the dress code?

    Our wedding attire is Black Tie, meaning tuxedos, dinner jackets, and floor-length gowns are appropriate. However, please don’t be afraid to show off your personal style! Black tie attire doesn’t have to mean all black. If you have further questions or want guidance on attire, please ask Meredith! Ireland can be chilly, even in August, so check the weather forecast and plan accordingly.

  • Are my children also invited?

    While we love your little ones, we are opting for an adult-only wedding ceremony and reception. We appreciate your making arrangements in advance! We have received recommendations for The Wedding Nanny, and Elisa Babysitting.

    Your children are invited to celebrate with us at the Welcome Party and After Party!

  • Are there other events during the weekend?

  • Is your ceremony "Un-plugged"?

    Yes! Our hope is that all of our loved ones remain present during our ceremony and respectfully ask our guests to honor our wish for an “unplugged” (phone-less) ceremony. We have carefully selected and hired extremely talented photographers and videographers to capture our wedding, and we promise to share those images with our guests after the event!
