FAQs
What is the dress code?
Cocktail attire is appreciated. Cocktail dresses and sport coats with or without ties. The weather should be pleasant, but plan accordingly for temps in early October in Eastern Tennessee. A light jacket or sweater, just in case, is recommended.
Are children welcome?
Yes! The kiddos are welcome. We kindly ask that kids are supervised at all times, especially during particularly special points of the day, ie. the ceremony, first dance, during toasts or speeches, etc. Please let us know if you’ll need a highchair or any other accommodations when you RSVP. There will also be kid-friendly menu options.
Can I bring a ‘plus one?’
Due to space constraints, only the guests formally invited on your save-the-date & wedding invitation can be accommodated. Thank you for understanding!
Will there be an open bar?
Yes! Beer, wine, and cocktails will be available throughout cocktail hour and the reception. There will also be a coffee bar ☕️ and non-alcoholic drinks to enjoy as well. Please be sure to take advantage of the free wedding shuttle service to and from downtown Chattanooga if you plan to drink. Uber/Lyft is also a great option.

What is there to do in and around Chattanooga?
Chattanooga is known for its scenic beauty, outdoor adventure, and charming downtown - especially in the Fall. Guests may enjoy visiting the Tennessee Aquarium, one of the top freshwater aquariums in the country, located along the riverfront in downtown Chattanooga. For iconic mountain views, head up Lookout Mountain to explore Rock City Gardens, famous for its towering red rock formations, walking paths, and sweeping views across seven states.
Other local favorites include strolling along the Tennessee Riverwalk, riding the Lookout Mountain Incline Railway, or visiting Ruby Falls, a spectacular underground waterfall inside Lookout Mountain. Downtown Chattanooga also offers great restaurants, coffee shops, boutiques, and easy access to the riverfront, making it a wonderful place to explore before or after the wedding.
