Accommodation

While you're welcome to stay wherever you choose, we've secured a group booking at the AC Hotel by Marriott Charlotte SouthPark to offer you discounted rates for your convenience. We recommend staying there as it’s close to all the wedding festivities and just a short distance from SouthPark Mall, where you'll find a variety of restaurants, shopping, and activities to enjoy.

Registry

Ceremony Image

As many of you know, we're currently living in San Francisco, where space is a bit tight (and closets are a luxury!). Since we've already filled our home with the essentials, we'd love to focus on creating memories together instead. Rather than a traditional registry, we're hoping to start our married life with some unforgettable experiences. So, we'll be setting up a travel fund to help us create our dream adventures. We can't wait to celebrate with you and are so grateful for your love and support!

Frequently Asked Questions

Wait, aren’t you already married?

Yes, we are! But we love each other so much that we wanted to share our joy and celebrate this special moment with all of you. Our love story deserves a big celebration, and we can't wait to create new memories with our favorite people by our side!

Are children invited to the wedding?

Although we love your children dearly, we regretfully cannot accommodate them at the wedding venue. We hope you understand and enjoy your night off at our wedding!

What exactly is "formal garden cocktail attire"?

Think of "formal garden cocktail attire" as dressing up for a fancy garden party with a touch of nature's elegance! For women, this might mean a lovely floral cocktail dress, a chic jumpsuit, or a flowy skirt and top. Men should wear a suit with a collared shirt. A tie is optional—feel free to wear one if it suits your style, or skip it for a more relaxed look. While it's not a black-tie event, the goal is to feel stylish and elegant while enjoying the beautiful garden setting!

I have some questions—what should I do?

As the date draws nearer, we'll be providing more details, so please keep an eye on this website and watch for the official invitations. If you have any questions in the meantime, feel free to reach out to Riley or Carl directly!
