FAQs

Question

What is the dress code?

Answer

This is a sophisticated, formal-to-black tie event. For the ladies: elegant floor-length gowns or with sophisticated heels or flats. For the gentlemen: tuxedos or dark suits, dress shirts, and a conservative tie or bow tie. Absolutely no jeans, khakis, shorts, or knee-high dresses. And though it should go without saying - no white dresses please. Please adhere to the dress code, for respect towards the church, venue, and the bride and groom. Thank you!

Question

Can I bring a plus-one?

Answer

Unfortunately no, we ask that you only bring whose presence is requested on your invitation. There is a strict headcount provided to the venue, so extra guests will not have a seat at a table.

Question

Can I bring my children?

Answer

Unfortunately no, regardless of their age, we ask that you only bring who is named on your invitation. Only immediate family members of the bride and groom, who are part of the ceremony, are permitted to bring their children. Please plan accordingly and early, and more importantly enjoy a night to you and your partner!

Question

May I come to the reception and skip the ceremony?

Answer

We really do hope you make it to the ceremony. Zack and Andrea are very excited to share this moment with you, to celebrate the holy sacrament of marriage. The ceremony will include a full Catholic mass, and ALL are welcome and encouraged to join - even if you are not Catholic yourself! We will be so glad to welcome you at the reception if you cannot make it to the ceremony, but again, the purpose of our celebration is the commitment we are making to each other and God, and we invite you specifically to join us for that and to be a witness to it. And THEN we can eat, dance, and be merry!

Question

If I am coming from out of town, where should I stay? And where can I park?

Answer

Please refer to to the Travel tab on this site. We have a room block at the Grand Bohemian for a discounted rate, but you may also stay at any of the other nearby hotels - all within a walking distance of the reception venue. This is particularly preferred because you may park your cars for free at your hotel and walk to the venue. If you prefer to make your own accommodations at an AirBNB or Time-Share, this is also fine - but just note that although The Citrus Club does have a PARKING GARAGE where you may park for free, just please bring your parking ticket to the Citrus Center for validation.

Question

Where can I park downtown?

Answer

Please refer to the above question. At the Citrus Center, where parking is validated - or if you at staying across the street at the Grand Bohemian, at their parking garage.

Question

Table Arrangements Etiquette?

Answer

ALL items serving as decoration on the tables belong to the venue and/or the florist. At the end of the evening, any live flowers/bouquets may be taken with you, but please leave behind any table decorations, as they are rentals, to avoid missing-items charges on the groom and bride! Thank you!

Question

If my invited spouse cannot come to the wedding, can I bring someone else?

Answer

In short, no. We ask that our guests don't not bring anyone who was not specifically invited to the wedding. If this is your circumstance, please contact the bride or groom directly.
