FAQs
Question
I’m traveling, which airport should I fly to?
Answer
We recommend William P. Hobby Airport (HOU) which will be a bit closer to the venue and easier to navigate than George Bush Intercontinental Airport (IAH), but either airport will get you into Houston!
Question
Is transportation provided?
Answer
Please reach out to us to coordinate pickup from Hobby Airport or the Amtrak Train Station up to 5pm on 12/12. We will also try to provide transportation to and from the venue if you let us know where you’re staying.
Question
Where should I stay?
Answer
We have provided a list of nearby accommodations under the Travel tab, but you are welcome to stay wherever it’s convenient for you. We are working to arrange booking coupons at the IHG hotel options. Stay tuned!
Question
What time should I show up?
Answer
Doors will open right at 6pm for a light social hour. During this time, you can enjoy appetizers, mingle, and sign our guestbook before festivities begin!
Question
What should I wear?
Answer
We’re not picky, but most people will likely be dressed in formal evening wear. We also invite you to wear formal African traditional clothing if you wish. Nigerian weddings are vibrant and joyful, so colorful attire is encouraged.
Question
Is there parking at the venue?
Answer
Yes! If you need a ride, please reach out to us to coordinate transportation.
Question
Where are you registered?
Answer
We are registered with Amazon, Walmart, and through Zola. You can find our registry list through our Zola wedding website.
Question
Are kids allowed?
Answer
Absolutely! Just keep in mind that festivities may run past their bedtime.
Question
Can I bring a date?
Answer
We welcome you to bring a plus one. If you are unable to RSVP for them, please let us know so we can update our list to include them in our final count.
Question
Can I take my own pictures?
Answer
Of course! We welcome your pictures and encourage you to upload any pictures or videos to our shared album (there will be a QR code at the tables). We simply ask that you do not share pictures of us on social media or post any of our information. Thank you for your understanding!
Question
What if I have a food allergy?
Answer
Please RSVP and let us know ASAP! We will be having traditional west African dishes, but we want to ensure our guests are safe and have food options available.
Question
Is there anything else I should know?
Answer
It's no obligation, but you may wish to come prepared to spray the bride a groom! For those who are unaware, "spraying" at African weddings refers to the cultural tradition of guests showering the couple with cash as a sign of love, support, and celebration. There will be a table at the venue dedicated to exchanging cash to dollar bills.
