All RSVP's are due no later than December 1st, 2026. If you fail to submit an RSVP by this date, this will automatically be considered as "Not Attending".
All areas of our wedding will be indoors except for the 6 minute walk from the ceremony venue, Cathedral of St. John the Baptist, to the reception venue, South Carolina Society Hall.
Given the 6 minute walk between the ceremony venue, Cathedral of St. John the Baptist, and the reception venue, South Carolina Society Hall, there will be no shuttle service available; however, there are several parking-decks located within the vicinity of downtown Charleston available for personal vehicles, as well as many Ubers and Lyfts present upon personal request for your convenience.
No.
Neither phones nor electronic devices should be used or be left on for the duration of the wedding ceremony. We have a professional photographer who will make sure to take many wonderful photos!
Please feel free to take photos and videos before and after the ceremony, as well during the reception!
While we love all of our family's and friends' children, given South Carolina Society Hall's capacity limitations, we kindly request that only formally invited children listed on your invitation and RSVP are present during the reception.
For couples with children under the age of 2, you are welcome to attend the ceremony in the family space at the cathedral if needed.
In order to accommodate the needs of guests with young children, we have a list of wonderful nannies who are available upon request. We appreciate your understanding, and look forward to celebrating with you.
