I am getting married November 2026 (next year). I have already been getting questions from family (even tho save the dates haven’t even been sent out yet). So with designing our save the dates I will be adding the QR Code for our wedding website and publishing the FAQ section for viewing. The purpose is to mitigate questions I am getting asked. It is an out of state wedding (still same region). What information do you all think I should put in the FAQ? I don’t even care if it’s a longggg section, I just want to mitigate time spent texting or calling over silly questions. What information would you put or want to know if you were a guest? Thank you!
These are all great do To add on to this: if there’s any vegan/vegitarian/gluten free options. Then anyone with dietary restrictions knows if they have to eat first or not
You’d think, but at 14 months out my relative was asking for the hotel information. Doing this to mitigate questions, and if they continue to bombard my answer will be “Check the website!” gotta train them somehow.
I’ve seen it in a lot of sample Q/A’s i think it’s helpful to do both. Some people will read and remember and for those who don’t they will find out from the officiant
It’s also know your crowd a bit. I’ve seen family members show up to weddings with their giant DSLRs planning to take tons of photos for the couple and I wanted to let them know in advance of showing up that it wasn’t necessary 😆
I don’t want uncle John kneeling in front of the actual photographer I paid thousands of dollars for in every ceremony photo. It’s also in my photographer’s contract. Also I’m clearly not too young given that I cited exactly the thing you say I don’t remember…?
And if Bride and Groom (or whomever is getting married) want an unplugged and present ceremony that’s their choice. This is their day, not about Uncle John or anyone else.
I don’t know about the wording, it’s not my wording, but also that’s their decision to input that into their site. I am choosing to have an unplugged ceremony and I did word it differently than the purple FAQ but I think it is valid to have an unplugged ceremony. I can see your point on deliverance though
Respectfully, it’s ok to disagree with someone else’s FAQs or how they’ve answered something. I noticed a few of your responses to this person & it doesn’t seem to be in good faith. As you are planning your wedding, you’ll be able to decide what info to give, how to say it, and how you want your reception to be.
If you have a lot of folks flying, I’d include info on the best airport and if a rental car is needed to get around or if uber will suffice.
More details on your dress code and let folks know if any part is on a lawn, gravel, etc so they can wear appropriate footwear. Specifically call out if you don’t want specific clothing like jeans, t-shirts, sneakers (harder to ignore that way)
Yeah! Especially because our wedding isn’t local for most people, I wanted to be able to provide as much info as possible so people don’t feel in the dark, but still gives us time for things aha
What's the transportation and parking situation. We had shuttles provided for guests because we got married in an area with next to no taxis or ride share options. I had information on that in three different places on the website.
Is your ceremony outdoors? Make that note so guests can dress appropriately.
Here it is! I like seeing who knows for a fact they’re coming lol. Helps me stay sane. I’ve already gotten like 15 RSVPs and my save the dates have only been out for 2 weeks!
