Our wedding ceremony is outdoors, but our reception will be in an air conditioned reception space.

There are a bunch of grassy/dirt areas that you might have to walk in so plan accordingly. However...the reception space is fully floored. Whatever works for you!
Is it okay to take pictures with our phones and cameras during the wedding?
Yes! We would love for you to take photos and share them on our app, Joy, or via the QR code that is provided for everyone at the reception. We absolutely love photos from all points of view.
However, please refrain from taking photos during the ceremony, we have hired an incredible photographer and videographer to capture that moment.
