Is this a destination wedding?

Kind of, yes! Though Whidbey Island is close to Seattle, it feels a world away from reality. We encourage you to use our wedding as an excuse to explore the Pacific Northwest, if you can. We are so grateful that you are willing to venture out to one of our favorite places in the world!

How do I get to the island?

Whidbey is to the northwest of Seattle and is accessible by ferry or bridge. Check out the travel & lodging page or the Captain Whidbey website for route recommendations.

Do I need a car?

We really, really recommend renting a car while you’re here. See if you can link up with fellow guests in your hometown to split a car for the weekend!

I’m freaked out by the ferry. Help!

We get it! You can find everything you need to know here. When you're lining up to get on the ferry, be mindful of all posted signs as you approach the terminal. During busy times, passengers in line are sticklers for rules and not cutting. Once you're on the boat, we recommend getting out of your car to really enjoy this magical experience – you just might see a whale.

What should I wear?

There are some portions of the events that will take place on grass, so we recommend avoiding shoes that will sink into the ground. It can also get windy on Whidbey, so bring a layer.

Friday welcome party dress code: Creative Cocktail. That means cocktail attire , but with some flair. Wear your favorite color, pull in some sequins, lean into the latest trends, take a risk – have fun! Turn the volume up to 11!

Saturday ceremony & reception dress code: Black Tie Optional. We have no rules against outshining the couple and no color is off-limits – we want you to look like your most fabulous, beautiful, confident self.

What else should I bring?

Must-packs: raincoat, extra layer (like a Patagonia puffy) for hanging outside, water-resistant walking shoes, an adventurous attitude.

Optional, but worth it: sunglasses for that early-spring sun, your freshest ‘fit for the wedding, your best dance moves.

Are kids invited? 

We love all your kiddos, but we are only able to accommodate the kids named on your invitation. We really appreciate you making arrangements ahead of time to be with us!

Can I bring a date? 

If your invitation says "and guest," then yes! If not, please just bring your beautiful self.

I have a food allergy. Can I make a special request? 

Yes! Let us know in your RSVP if there's anything we should pass along to our caterer.

Can I take pictures and video during the ceremony?

Our highest priority for our wedding is being present with everyone – and everyone being present with us! We've invested in an amazing photographer and videographer that will capture the entire weekend for us, and we promise to share the photos and video with you all. Please, please, please put your phones/camera away during the ceremony – but go nuts at the reception!
