FAQ’s

What is a pop up wedding?

A pop up wedding is a one hour ceremony that is all about you.  Your choice of venue, 10-25 of your favorite guests, your choice of ceremony style, and a bouquet and photographer to top it all off.

How does it work?

First you book the package that you love online!  We then reach out to your selected venue to confirm your booking and will let you know immediately once the contract is signed and it is booked.  The next step after you receive venue confirmation is to choose your photographer and officiant from our highly rated vendor list. Once those are selected, you can choose your bouquet/bout from our menu, or send pictures of one you love..  After all vendors are selected and closer to your pop-up wedding date, we send you a list of questions going over the logistics such as where do you want your family to stand, if you want to walk down the aisle or arrive with your groom, etc.  Then we send out a master timeline and itinerary which will go over the whole day!

Do you provide our marriage license?

You will need to handle applying for the marriage license.  Our officiants are experts in this arena and can assist you if you have questions once you are all booked.  The officiant also does turn in the signed license for you to make it all legal. For more information on how to get a marriage license, check out the City Clerk website in the city you are getting married in.

What is the bouquet menu?

After you book, we do send a bouquet menu to choose from.  But we also allow customization so you are welcome to send us the bouquet you love too.

What if it is only us 2? Does it change the price?

Most of the time no.  In most of our packages, we are not charging for guests.  If the package includes champagne for all guests, then we could take out the extra champagne. 

Are you LGBT friendly?

Absolutely.  We work with all couples who are in love and want to get married!

Can the photographer be our witness?

Yes!

What is a typical pop-up wedding timeline?

Let’s use 1pm as your booking time for example.  The ceremony would be from approximately 1-1:15pm and the rest of the time would be for taking fun photos!!

Can I bring my own officiant?

We have really amazing officiants that are all highly rated.  However, we understand that some people want to have someone personal officiate their wedding.  If you do bring your own officiant, we will refund or credit you $300.

What type of ceremony can your officiant's provide?

We can offer anything you want!  Civil, Religious, Non-religious, Spiritual, Same Sex, Interfaith Ceremonies, etc.  You are the boss.

Do we get to see photographers work?

Once you book our package, we send you a list of highly rated photographers to choose from.  In the meantime, you can check out our gallery online to see examples of their work.

How long do we have the photographer?

One hour.  However, you can add additional hours which is under the Upgrades section.

What does the one hour of photography include?

You get the hour of photography which you can use however you would like.  Then all high resolution images are delivered via an online gallery where you can download, share, and print.

Can I have more than 25 guests?

Our business model is small and simple pop-up weddings.  However, we understand the number 25 doesn’t fit everyone.  Let us know which venue you are interested in and we can let you know if it is possible to add more guests and if there is a fee.  Also, check out our Upgrades tab on each package as sometimes it does say it right there. We do not allow any weddings with more than 50 guests.

Can I have a Bridal Party and do they count as guests?

Yes you can and no, we wouldn’t count them as guests. However, if Champagne is included in your package and the bridal party puts you over the included guest count, you may need to purchase additional glasses of Champagne.  

Do children count as guests?

If they need a chair, yes.  If it is standing room only, we wouldn’t have to count them.

How far in advance should we book?

You should book as far in advance as possible, up to one year in advance. However, please be sure to read the Terms and Conditions tab as some venues do have restrictions on how far in advance you can book.

Do I have a choice of a musician? Can I choose my own songs? How many songs?

You do get to choose whether you would like a violinist, singing guitarist, or instrumental guitarist.  You can choose the songs you would like played and the order you would like them. You have the vendor for 30 minutes so you can choose as many songs as you would like in that time frame.

Can the pre-ceremony photography upgrade be used for after the ceremony?

Yes, it is essentially booking an extra hour of photography and can be used before or after the ceremony.

Do you plan receptions?

 At this time we do not have the capacity to plan receptions because we have so many pop-up weddings to plan.  However, many of our venues do allow receptions and some even offer discounts on the additional venue rental if you  book your pop-up wedding with us. Check under the Terms and Conditions tab of your desired package and it will say there if there is a discount available.  Once you book your pop-up, we will put you in touch with our venue contact to help you plan your reception.

What is the Day of Coordination Upgrade?

If you choose the Day of Coordinator upgrade, we will have a representative on site for one hour to do things such as greet guests and tell them where to sit, cue the groom to stand with the officiant, cue the bride when to walk down the aisle, cue a musician if applicable, put out your “reserved” cards, etc.  If you don’t upgrade to one, you can appoint someone in your party to do these things and that person would follow my very detailed timeline to ensure these things happen. And if you don’t think you need one, that is fine too!

Do you handle transportation, accommodations, hair & makeup, cake, etc?

We have chosen to focus solely on the pop-up ceremony.  We can make recommendations for hair and makeup. We can help provide resources for other services.  We do not assist with hotel accommodations.

What happens if it rains?

Be sure to read all of the information about the package you are interested in.  Some venues do have an indoor space as a backup in the event of rain and that would be listed on the package.  If you are doing  your pop-up in an outdoor space, we can move to a covered area nearby if there is one.  If you desire to reschedule, we can try to work with everyone involved to reschedule to your new desired date.  Otherwise, as they say, the show must go on. We all bring our umbrellas and have a beautiful rainy wedding which is legend to be good luck!  If you feel rain would ruin your day, we highly recommend an indoor pop-up wedding package or an outdoor covered venue.
