Bride/Groom Interview Questions
1. When do you see yourself getting married? (month, date,
year, time of day)
Autumn; specifically Nov 11th 2016 (late-afternoon/evening)

4. A short ceremony, weather permitting, will be outside at 17:30.
With the reception at the same location, indoors.
2. Where would you like the ceremony/reception? How many
people would you like to invite? (Most guests in state or out-of-
state?)
In a rural/pastoral setting (specifically Salem Cross Inn, in MA)
We'd like to invite ~100 guests. Most of those guests are in
state (approximately 2/3), but they mostly live on the coast and
the venue is closer to central MA (the commute from Boston is
roughly an hour).
3. What do you envision as the feel for your wedding? (formal,
informal, elegant)
Pretty, charming, not stuffy but not informal… a laid back-
formal with a bit of a bluegrass feel.
4. What is your budget? (An estimate is fine)
15,000, give or take; we're trying to be as thrifty as possible.
5. Who will be in the wedding party? Do you have a wedding
site we can look at?
We haven't entirely commited to the idea of having a wedding
party, but if we do, it'll probably be on the small side (two or
three people).
6. Who will marry you? How will you and the groom walk down
the aisle?
While we havent chosen an officiant as yet, we're thinking a
justice of the peace or other such person will marry us—

5. although one element that's really important to us is that we can
incorporate our own vows. Although we'd like to be a bit
atradtional where our ceremony is concerned, we're thinking
that Cisco would walk down the aisle with his mother, and then
afterward I would walk down alongside my father.
7. What will the ceremony look like? (Elements that are
important to you)
We'd like to have some music playing while everyone
assembles/during peoples' walks down the aisle, and then when
everyone departs. We're also envisioning some fall-themed
décor such as pumpkins, and maybe some fallish flowers
(perhaps our cousin's beautiful daughter can be our flower girl
(). We'll read our own vows and we were also thinking about
having some of the guests read some short poems/passages. But
we do want to keep the ceremony relatively brief.
8. What do you have in mind for transportation? (To the
wedding and/or reception)
We're going to rent shuttles that will bring our guests to the
venue (and back) from the hotel where we reserved the block of
rooms. (The Salem Cross Inn has a company they recommend
for this service)
9. What three key elements do you absolutely want at your
wedding? Do you have a specific theme in mind?
Our three key elements are a live band, a first dance, and a
photo booth (or some other type of special feature for the
guests).
We'd also love to do something special with our guestbook—
perhaps having a big calendar where everyone could sign on
their birthday or anniversary date (any date special to them, so
we could celebrate it together in the future). We've been
thinking a literature-based theme could be nice, as we're both
big readers and writers.
10. hat key elements do you absolutely do not want at your

6. wedding?
We'd rather not do a bouquet or garter toss, if possible—other
than that, we're pretty open!
11. Do you have any colors in mind? Flowers? Centerpieces,
lighting or linens.
So far, linens are being provided by our venue (I believe they're
a white or cream color.) Because the wedding's in November,
I'm interested in fall colors, but I don't have any particular ideas
there. And I like any flowers that fit (my first thought is
sunflowers if that seems relevant), but I've also been toying
with the idea of incorporating flowers that are folded from the
pages of books. We've got some lighting in terms of the string
lights that line the barn, but beyond that, I'm open to
suggestion.
12. Are their any cultural or ethnic traditions that you would
like to involve?
No.
(Jack-o-lanterns! –Cisco)
13. What type of food do you envision? Buffet or sit down?
(Alcohol?) (Flavor of Cake?)
The venue will include a sit-down dinner and cake. However,
before we settled on the Salem Cross Inn, we werere primarily
thinking that we'd love buffet style if possible. We also
considered clambakes among our top choices.
For dessert, we're also considering cupcakes.
For alcohol, we're thinking beer and wine with the possibility of
a specialty cocktail. The drinks will be for sale, with some
complimentary beverages. We're considering some different
options: open bar for the first hour, open bar until a certain bill

7. has been racked (maybe $1000), or giving each guest a couple
redeemable drink vouchers. Depending on what our final cost is,
we're open to the idea of putting extra money into bar situation.
14. What type of entertainment (band, DJ) would you like?
We'd love a live band, with a violin if possible. It'd be great if
they could play a range of music from a few bluegrass songs to
some more contemporary/"known" pieces that will get people
dancing.
15. Do you want the reception to include?:
We'd love to include the father/daughter dance, the mother/son
dance, and the cake cutting for sure. We'd also love to have a
champagne toast and our first dance.
16. Do you want to use off premise catering at the event (food
trucks)? No, we'd prefer to do that on site.
