Our Most Asked Questions

If your invitation includes “and guest” or lists two names, you’re welcome to bring a plus one. Otherwise, we’re unfortunately unable to accommodate additional guests at this time. Should anything change, we’ll reach out directly.

We love your little ones, but this will be an adults-only event. Thank you for understanding!

Since most of you will be traveling to celebrate with us, we kindly ask that you RSVP as soon as you know your plans. The earlier we hear from you, the better we can plan for an incredible weekend together! 

Please visit the Travel tab for details on our room block at the Beaufort Hotel. Transportation will be provided to and from Thursday’s Welcome Celebration, so we recommend staying at the Beaufort Hotel for the full weekend. As New Year’s Eve is a popular time on the coast, we encourage booking your accommodations and travel as early as possible.

Thursday is Cocktail Attire: Jackets, no ties. Fun colors and a little personality are encouraged!

Friday is Creative Black Tie: Tuxedos are preferred for men, with a little NYE flair encouraged. For women, we kindly ask that you wear a long dress and embrace the New Year’s Eve occasion.

All Wedding Day events, including the After Party, will take place at the Beaufort Hotel, making it easy for everyone to enjoy the night without having to travel on New Year’s Eve.

Transportation will be provided for any off-property events, including the Welcome Celebration.

Weather on the coast in North Carolina this time of year can be unpredictable, but the past few NYE’s have been extremely mild (~60-70 degrees).

All events will take place indoors, with the exception of the wedding ceremony, which will be held outdoors on the lawn. We recommend keeping this in mind when choosing shoes and bringing a wrap for the ceremony.

For most guests, we recommend arriving by Thursday afternoon, ahead of the Welcome Celebration at 7 PM.

If your invitation includes dinner on Wednesday evening, please plan to arrive by Wednesday afternoon.

Saturday will be very informal and casual as we all recover from what should be an epic New Year’s Eve Wedding! If your travel schedule allows, we’d love for you to stick around to debrief the weekend, rehash our favorite moments, and watch some New Year’s Day college football - our favorite January 1st tradition.

That said, we know everyone has busy schedules and completely understand if you need to head home. We’re just grateful you’re making the trip and celebrating with us for however long you can!

For our first-time visitors: Beaufort is pronounced “BO-fert” — not “BEW-fort”! (At least the one in NC!)
