Wedding FAQs
Please RSVP by April 30. If we don't receive an RSVP from you by then we will assume you're not attending.
We are providing accommodation for all wedding guests at the Chateau & coach house on-site from October 3-5 for everyone that RSVPs by our deadline. We're looking forward to hosting you all for the weekend!
We've arranged for a bus to pick up our guests from Angers Saint-Laud Stn on Friday (10/3) the day of the welcome party at 3:15PM. The return bus will be on Sunday (10/5) departing Chateau Challain after brunch around 11:00AM. Paris is just 2 hours by train or a 1 hour flight and Nantes airport is just a 45 minute drive. Please note that if you're not using our arranged transportation you will need to arrange your own transportation in advance of arrival. If you choose to drive, we have plenty of free parking space at the Chateau.
Regretfully, we request that guests do not bring a plus one unless they are specifically named on the invitation or in our guest list which you can check when you RSVP. Thank you for understanding!
Yes - kids are welcome at most our events throughout the wedding weekend except the after party. We just ask that you are mindful of them throughout the weekend so they don't interrupt any special moments.
A detailed guide for dress code (including pictures) is outlined in the 'dress code' section above.
For our ceremony and reception we kindly request you dress to impress in formal attire. For both the ladies & gents please avoid dark colours like black, dark grey, maroon, brown, or overly bright neons. We are also requesting a more whimsical costume style for the welcome dinner and smart casual for the send-off brunch. ❤️
When in doubt, please feel free to send us a photo and we will happily provide our input on whether the outfit is appropriate for our event. In general, dress to impress for our wedding weekend!
We'd love for you to take photos throughout the weekend, just not during the ceremony! We will be making an announcement beforehand as a reminder. We ask that all devices are turned off during the ceremony so we can all be fully present (plus no one wants photos of you holding your phone 😉)
The coach will be picking guests up from Angers St. Laud station at 3:15PM in front of the pharmacy just outside of the station. Please check in with our lovely maid of honor, Jennifer ❤️.
Your presence is already a present, but if you'd like to get us a gift, we'd appreciate cash to help us out with starting this new chapter together!
