Frequently asked questions.

What date should I RSVP by?

Please RSVP no later than September 1 on our wedding website via the RSVP page.

Am I allowed to bring a plus-one?

We are not allowing additional plus-ones to our wedding unless you have been already notified you have one, as we’d like to keep the guest list to those who know us well. If you are unsure if you have a plus-one, please reach out to Kyle or Corinne.

Are children allowed?

While we love your children and wish we could afford to have them all celebrate with us, we have chosen to have our wedding be an adults only celebration.

What time should I arrive at your wedding ceremony?

Our ceremony will begin promptly at 4:30 PM on Saturday, October 4. If you are not coming on the buses from the hotels, please consider arriving by 4:00-4:15 PM to ensure you have adequate time to park and take your seat.

What are the addresses of the wedding ceremony and reception venues?

Both the ceremony and reception will be held at the same venue back to back. The address is: 4137 Providence Mill Rd, Maiden, NC 28650.

I noticed the venue is pretty far from the hotels. Will there be transportation provided?

Yes! We have rented 2 large coach buses to drive guests to-and-from both of the hotels and the venue.

We decided to stay in downtown Charlotte to offer our guests better accommodation options, proximity to attractions, as well as easier access to the airport.

Is there parking at the venue if I want to drive?

Yes. If you would like to drive yourself, there is a sizable parking lot at the venue that is free of charge. You are able to leave your car overnight, if needed.

How far are the hotels from each other?

The 2 hotels are only 1 block from each other or about a 2-minute walk.

What should I do if I don't make it into the room block?

If you miss the deadline to reserve a room in our block, reach out to the hotel and mention our wedding anyway—they may be able to accommodate you with our discount in a room outside of our block.

What’s the best airport to use?

Flying into Charlotte (CLT) is closest. It is only a 15-minute ride from the airport to the hotels. Charlotte is a ride-share friendly city.

What is the dress code for your wedding?

Our wedding is black-tie optional.

Will your wedding be outside?

Our ceremony will be inside the venue, but the Providence Cotton Mill is an indoor-outdoor venue which has many open air windows. The cocktail hour will take place outside with the reception back inside.

Will there be an open bar?

Yes! There will be an open bar for guests to enjoy throughout the cocktail hour and reception.

Will there be meal options for guests with dietary restrictions or allergies?

We plan on having an entree choice that's vegetarian, gluten, and nut-free to accommodate guests with dietary restrictions. Our cocktail hour appetizers will also all be clearly marked. If you have additional restrictions that go beyond what we've listed here, please let us know in the designated section of your digital RSVP.

Am I allowed to take photos at your wedding ceremony?

We kindly ask that you keep our wedding ceremony “unplugged” and refrain from taking any photos or videos during that time. We want our guests to truly be in the moment with us and let our photographer and videographer handle it!

A cotton mill…in the South?

This was the first question we asked as well. The Providence Cotton Mill was built in 1888, which was 23 years after slavery was abolished. We were assured by the Providence Cotton Mill staff that the property had no association with slavery or mistreatment of any kind.
