FAQ

For all our friends and family who have lots of questions, please check out our Q & A first! We welcome you to message us directly if something isn’t clear or answered on our website

What should I wear?

Our wedding is a black tie event.

That means for men, a dark (black, navy, or charcoal) suit, formal dress shoes (no trainers), AND tie is required. A tux would be amazing for our wedding, but if you don’t own one, that is totally okay we won’t hold you to it!

For women, that would mean a tea-length or full length dress with heels (feel free to bring a pair of flats if needed!). Naturally, no dresses should come above the knees. Please accessorize to your personal style!

Is there a color theme for the wedding?

There is no specific color theme for our wedding, we would like you to wear whatever color you feel the best in! The bridesmaids will be wearing sage green.

Can I bring a date?

Unfortunately, we are at max capacity at this point, so unless we have sent out an invitation to your +1, you cannot bring a date to our wedding.

Where is your wedding gift registry?

We are already so so grateful you are all going out of your way to celebrate with us so a gift is absolutely not necessary. However, for guest that insist on giving something small for a kind gesture. We’d prefer all gifts to be in the form of cash (USD or CAD).

Are we able to use the facilities at Babington House?

Yes! Our schedule of the day is posted on our website. It is encouraged that any guests who want to arrive earlier and explore or use the venue facilities are more than welcome to.

For guests staying at Babington House, you are also welcome to stay and use the facilities after check out.

What is the weather like in May at Babington House?

In May in the UK fluctuates a lot and is similar to the weather we have in Vancouver during May. Expect weather temperatures to be around 17-22°C. Our wedding ceremony and drinks reception are both planned to be outdoors and the wedding dinner to be indoors. If it rains, we will move everything indoors.

Is it easy to call a taxi/Uber from Babington House?

Babington House is quite remote. Therefore, if you require transport back to your hotels the evening of our wedding, please do let us know ahead of time so we can help you arrange it with our planner.

What type of food is served at our wedding?

All food served at Babington House are nut-free. The wedding dinner is served family style. If you have a specific dietary restriction, please let us know asap.

Is our wedding open bar?

Our wedding is not open bar. However, we promise there is enough (and more!) to drink for all our guests. Something important to us is to be mindful of food/drink wastage, please try to finish the drinks you have before ordering more 🙂

What time does the wedding end?

There is no set time our guests need to leave as Babington House staff will cater to all our guests until the last man or woman standing. We do serve midnight munchies at 12AM, so don’t miss that!
