FAQs

Question

What time should I arrive?

Answer

Our ceremony will begin at 6:00 PM. Please plan to arrive and be seated by 5:45 PM. Once the ceremony starts, late arrivals will need to wait until the ceremony is over. We recommend giving yourself a little extra time to account for traffic and parking.

Question

What is the dress code?

Answer

We’re going for a stylish, elevated vibe, so think cocktail attire! Ladies are encouraged to wear cocktail dresses, and gentlemen can wear suits or a collared shirt with dress pants. 🚫 No jeans, please. 💃🏽 Dress to impress. If you’re unsure, it’s always better to be slightly overdressed than underdressed. We can’t wait to see everyone looking amazing!

Question

Will there be traffic driving to the venue?

Answer

Yes!! Since it’s a Friday in the DC area, traffic can be a bit unpredictable. While the hotel is only about 9 miles from the venue, travel time can be up to 45 minutes during rush hour. We recommend planning ahead and giving yourself extra time so you can arrive relaxed and ready to celebrate with us!

Question

Is there parking at the venue?

Answer

Yes! The venue offers plenty of on-site parking for our guests. That said, we’ll have an open bar, so we strongly encourage using a ride share service if you plan to enjoy a few drinks. Safety first! 🥂

Question

Is the ceremony indoors or outdoors?

Answer

Our ceremony will be held outdoors at 6:00 PM. Our cocktail hour, dinner, and the reception will be held indoors. July in the DC area can be hot and humid, so please dress accordingly and stay cool. The ceremony will be brief, and we’ll have you inside celebrating in the A/C shortly after!

Question

Will dinner be served?

Answer

Yes! We’ll be serving a buffet-style dinner, so you can try a little bit of everything. Menu highlights include salad, jerk chicken, miso salmon, jasmine rice, macaroni & cheese, and asparagus - a little something for everyone! If you have any dietary restrictions or allergies, please let us know in advance so we can do our best to accommodate.

Question

Will there be alcohol?

Answer

Yes, drinks on us! We will have an open bar for all of our adult guests to enjoy complimentary drinks throughout the evening!

Question

Do you have any hotel recommendations?
