FAQs

We’re celebrating with about 100 guests.

Festivals are at the core of Sean and Eva's relationship story (See "Our Story" page). Festivals and EDM culture have positively influenced Sean and Eva to be more creative, expressive, social, joyful, and connected, and so they want to bring some of that culture and energy to their wedding. "Forever Fest" is a manifestation of Sean and Eva's lifelong commitment together (i.e. "forever") combined with their desire to bring some of the festival/EDM culture to their wedding day (i.e. "fest"). Think festival spirit: peace, love, unity and respect. Come for good vibes, time with friends, dancing and celebrating Sean and Eva’s marriage.
