As our wedding will be a sophisticated black-tie celebration, we ask that masculine folks wear a tuxedo and bow tie and feminine folks wear a floor-length evening gown. That said, we are encouraging you to look your best, not insisting on it.
We love photographers, and we've hired a wonderful photographer who we are entrusting to get photos for us to remember and share our day with. We know she will capture every moment, and we'll make sure you see those photos as soon as we do!
With this in mind, we ask that you refrain from photos during the ceremony; for the reception, though? Go wild! We'll even provide our hashtag so you can let everyone know who you're celebrating!
We are excited to see what you post on places like Instagram and Facebook. Our wedding day hashtag is #RachelAndBandon
