Is the ceremony indoors or outdoors?
+
The ceremony and cocktail hour will be held outdoors in the Grand Courtyard. The dinner and dancing move indoors to the Grand Ballroom. We recommend a light wrap for the evening breeze.
We love your little ones! However, we've chosen to make the reception an adults-only affair (18+). We hope this gives you a chance to enjoy a fun night out. The ceremony is family-friendly.
What's the parking situation?
+
Street parking is available near the venue, and there are two public garages within a 5-minute walk. We strongly encourage guests to use our complimentary shuttle or rideshare, especially for the return trip.
Can I take photos during the ceremony?
+
We're having an unplugged ceremony — please put phones and cameras away so you can be fully present. Our photographer will capture every moment. Photos are very welcome at the reception!
Will dietary restrictions be accommodated?
+
Absolutely. Our caterer can accommodate most dietary needs — vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, and common allergies. Please note your requirements in your RSVP.
What's the weather like in October?
+
October in Charleston is gorgeous — warm afternoons in the low 70s°F with pleasant evenings in the 60s. A light layer for the outdoor ceremony is all you'll need.
Who should I contact with questions?
+
Email us at hello@ethanandjulia.com and we'll get back to you quickly. Our wedding coordinator, Sarah, will be happy to help with day-of logistics.
Is there a rehearsal dinner or morning-after brunch?
+
Yes! Close family and the wedding party are invited to the rehearsal dinner on Friday, October 16th. We're also planning a casual brunch on Sunday morning for all guests — details coming soon!
