We will be having an "Unplugged Ceremony '', we ask that all guests put away their phones for the duration of the ceremony. And we ask that you refrain from posting any photos of us on social media until after our ceremony is complete. We have spent a lot of money on great photographers, so we would like to let them do their jobs properly without everyone's phones being in the way. Once the ceremony is over, during the cocktail/reception, you have our blessing to snap as many pictures as you'd like. During this time you can use our hashtag #HappilyAvilesAfter so we can easily look back on all the fun and memories made during our special day.
+ I still have questions, what is the best way to contact you?
Of course, feel free to call/text
