FAQs
What exactly is included in Be Married pop-up weddings?
Most of our pop-ups include;
Day-of coordination + timeline
Event concept, color palette, & styling of any decorated items
2.5 hours of Venue Access (includes your arrival, ceremony, photo time, any formalities, mingling, and send-off/departure.)
2.5 hours of Photo Coverage
Ceremony design/styling + Florals (Ceremony florals plus personal florals for you and your partner, i.e., boutonniere(s)/bouquet(s)
Custom cake or dessert/savory snack option
DJ/Sound services (they will handle your ceremony music and music to play music throughout the event)
Some vendors/items may not always be included and can vary from pop-up to pop-up.
Do you provide an officiant?
No, we do not include an Officiant in our packages. Some couples choose to have a family member or a friend of the family get ordained and be their Officiant. Others have a pastor or someone they have hired. Whatever the case may be, we are happy to work with whoever you have selected to officiate your ceremony. However, if you need a referral for an Officiant, we have some great contacts for you. No matter what, we ensure that whoever your Officiant is, they have the necessary information for the big day.
Are there any ways we can customize our selected package?
Most of our pop-up events typically have a few ways to upgrade or customize your package. We work with our included and trusted external vendors to put together a list of personal touches you can build onto your package. We will discuss that list further during our consultation.
Can we pick the color palette?
We now allow our couples to choose from a list of pre-designed color palettes and concepts for their pre-selected dates. Of course, our team is happy to choose colors/concepts on behalf of couples who want to be hands-off on that element and trust their vendor team’s creative process.
We can accommodate color palettes or design requests for couples considering a “Pick Your Own Date,” custom, or destination pop-ups. You can also trust our team’s creative process to design something especially for you!
Is there a designated time for a rehearsal?
We do not currently offer or include any ceremony rehearsal time. We have found that it isn’t quite necessary for what we offer. For each pop-up, we have a day-of coordinator who will give you clear directions on what to do for the ceremony, when to walk down the aisle, etc. We are there right by your side each step of the way, and you don’t have to worry about a thing ;)
Are there any beverages included in my pop-up?
We provide water for guests (bottled water at this time). You can bring Non-Alcoholic beverages with notice. For some pop-ups, we do have Upgrades Services that allow for alcoholic beverages to be purchased additionally.
Do we get to pick our cake flavor?
Absolutely! We will send you a questionnaire that will allow you to choose your flavor selection(s). We can also usually accommodate any dietary restrictions as long as you inform us.
What if we don’t want a cake?
If you're not a fan of cake, no problem! We can find an alternate dessert or savory snack option if available and at a reasonable cost.
Is there any music or a DJ?
Yes! We work with a DJ or Sound Service company to ensure that your pop-up event's music and sound needs are well taken care of. You will get to choose your ceremony processional and recessional song. You’ll submit selections in a questionnaire we provide to you.
Can we show up early to get ready?
Due to the nature of pop-up weddings, which are very scheduled and rely heavily on all participants following that schedule, we prefer that you show up ready for your pop-up wedding.
Some of our venue partners do have “Getting Ready” spaces at their venues that can be added on/booked with your package.
Are we able to have speeches or a toast?
If you are interested in potentially having a friend or family member give a short speech, we can discuss adding that to your timeline and what that would require further. Generally, most of the “traditional” wedding formalities are kept to a minimum due to the timeframe of a pop-up wedding.
How many guests can we invite?
Each package will have a maximum number of guests who can attend your pop-up wedding. The total number of guests will vary based on the pop-up location, concept, and package inclusions. The maximum guest count we have at this time for a package is no more than 40 guests (not including you and your partner). We will list the permitted total guest count on each package description page.
What if we want it just to be the two of us (no guests)?
We are totally up for that! For any couples who want a true elopement-style wedding without guests or only a witness or two, we can create customized packages to accommodate. Planning a beautiful true elopement can still be plenty of work! We would be honored to be considered in assisting you with creating a memorable space and day to elope.
Costs may decrease in these cases since true elopement since elopements generally require less time, resources, etc. Costs will be reviewed during a consultation.
Can we have a wedding party?
We currently only allow our couples to have two special guests/people incorporated into their ceremony. That is not to say you can’t have others dress the part and get photos together!
Who are the vendors that you partner with?
We partner with some of the best local creatives to help bring together an incredible day and experience for our couples. These are vendors we trust and vendors who share our vision in bringing this opportunity to celebrate love stories in an affordable, stylish, and fun way!
Am I able to change any of the vendors?
The vendors that we select for each pop-up are chosen for a reason. We build our vendor teams based on creative style/aesthetic, availability, and experience. While we understand that the concepts or visions we provide may not be for everyone, we do not allow vendors that are included in a package to be changed.
Can I hire my own vendors for services that are not included in a package?
You are absolutely welcome to hire your own vendors, such as a videographer, hair/make-up stylist, Officiant, etc. As long as you keep us in the loop on who you’ve hired, that is fine. We provide a list of recommended + trusted vendors for “outside” services that are familiar with our processes. The only vendor we ask that you use or consider from our preferred choices would be caterers. We have an excellent selection of catering options that have created custom menus and options for our pop-ups.
I am a vendor - how can I get involved?
We are not currently accepting any new vendor partners for our Pre-Selected Date options. However, you are welcome to email us at hello@justbemarried.com to introduce yourself or connect with us further if you’d like!
