Please submit your RSVP no later than October 31, 2025.

Here’s a handy timeline of when to have the major elements of your trip booked and planned:

ASAP… make sure you have a valid passport. It can take up to 6 weeks to renew your passport, and sometimes longer if the system is backlogged. Make sure you take care of this as soon as possible.

August 2025… book your flight(s). Most major airlines offer booking around 11 months in advance.

October 2025… submit your RSVP (via this website) for all parties on your invitation.

December 2025…book your accommodation. Suggested hotels and rental properties were sent to those staying off-property. Please reach out to us if you have any questions when booking.

February 2026…buy your train ticket (if applicable). If utilizing France’s high speed train system (TGV), plan your travel up to 4 months in advance via the Omio app. These tickets do sell out and will fluctuate in price, so make sure to book early! Additional details can be found in the Travel section of our website.

April 2026…reserve your car (if applicable). Whether renting a car, booking a car service, or planning an Uber, start thinking about your plan of action to get to Quissac.

May 2026…finalize your wedding outfit and plan your packing list. Don’t forget to check out our guidelines on attire to make sure you’re dressed your best!

Weather permitting, all wedding events will take place in a variety of our venue’s beautiful outdoor spaces. Average seasonal temperatures are high 70’s during the day and low 60’s at night. Please reference our attire section for suggestions on how to dress accordingly.

Formal attire is requested for the wedding day, but we encourage guests to dress appropriately for the weather and outdoor environment. We strongly discourage wearing high heels, as the terrain throughout our venue is quite uneven. Please reference our attire section for more details, as well as to reference our suggested color palette.

Due to limited venue capacity, we are unable to accommodate plus-ones at our wedding unless specifically indicated on your invitation envelope.

We have decided to keep our wedding an adults-only event unless otherwise specified to immediate family.

The city of Quissac is somewhat centrally located between many major cities, including Paris, Barcelona, and Milan. Although you have many options on how to structure your travel day, our personal travel itinerary includes a flight from Chicago to Paris, a high speed train from Paris to Montpellier, and a car from Montpellier to Quissac. Feel free to reach out to us if you have any questions when planning your travel.

Please reach out to us if you have any questions about your accommodation arrangement.

Although it is not necessary, rental car companies are available and accessible throughout France. Most companies can be pre-booked online and are English-speaking (Avis, Budget, Enterprise, etc). If you choose to rent a car, there is free parking available at our venue.

Although it is always helpful to have a base level of knowledge when traveling to a foreign country, an extensive mastery of the French language is not necessary for this trip. We recommend brushing up on some basics (“bonjour,” “merci,” “oui,” “excusez-moi”) as well as using the Google Translate app while abroad.

While many of your purchases overseas can be covered with a credit card, we recommend having euros on hand should the need arise. If you need to take out cash while abroad, ATMs are plentiful in most cities.

We will have an open bar at the Welcome Dinner (June 12) and Wedding Day (June 13). The Pool Party (June 14) will have a cash bar.

We have both decided to keep our respective last names and would appreciate any cards/correspondence to be addressed as such.

You are all traveling overseas to celebrate with us — your presence means the world and is all we ask for. No gifts, please!
