Are you getting married at a bar? More like behind bars! We're having a small courthouse ceremony with immediate family a few days before our reception/party.
Can you do a dramatic re-enactment of your vows at the reception? Sure! We plan on saying a few words of affection to you, and to each other, once everyone has had a few drinks. Plus toasts by pals. Let's say at 7:00.
Is dinner being served? It's a "heavy apps" situation, not a beef-or-fish sit-down deal, but basically: yes! We assure you, there will be loads of food. #somanysliders
Is this a kid-friendly party? With the minor (get it?) exception of a few out-of-town guests' kids and Chris' sons, Owen and Will (who will be dressed as a rookie cop and a tiny old man, respectively), this is a 21+ affair. Thank you for what we're going to go ahead and presume to be your understanding!
What's the attire? Fact: This isn't a Probably Asked Question; it's an Actually Already Asked one (aka an AAAQ)! Attire is wedding reception/party/cocktail/whatever you want. Note from the bride: PIZZAZZ.
Do I need to RSVP for the METZ show on Friday and/or brunch on Sunday? No RSVPs needed for anything other than the reception on Saturday. Those are just other things we're doing that weekend that we thought we'd throw out there.
So how did you two get engaged, anyway? That's a funny story... if you think taking someone on the Great Wheel on a dark, stormy night with a 16yo sadist stoner running the thing is funny.
(We got engaged the next day on safe, sunny ground, in a beautiful park in West Seattle, after a delicious brunch. There was, to be clear, nothing whatsoever terrifying about our actual engagement (aside from the perfectly normal and to-be-expected anxiety associated with doing a thing/saying some words that will be described and recited to friends and family forever and ever). She had the waffles.)
