FAQs

Question

What's the dress code?

Answer

Semi-Formal: Tuxedos and gowns are welcome, and so are suits and cocktail dresses. For Indian wear, sherwanis and lehengas are welcome, as are saris and kurtas. Please wear your reception attire to the ceremony- no need to run home and change.

Question

Is there a shuttle to the venue and back?

Answer

Yes, from 2-3:30 there will be shuttles stopping at both hotels and dropping off at our venue. There will be shuttles back from 8-10 pm. If you're staying at the hotel, please take the shuttle and forgo Chicago's least attractive attribute, traffic.

Question

Can or should I bring gifts to the reception?

Answer

We've recently moved to California, so any gifts through our Zola or Crate and Barrel Registry are very much preferred. We will have a card box available during the cocktail hour and reception.

Question

What should I wear to the Mehendi?

Answer

Come as you are! This is a casual event and we know that many of our guests are traveling, so don't stress about what to wear. We're excited and so grateful to be seeing friends and family from far and wide! Thanks again for joining us for this special weekend.

Question

Will there be vegetarian or gluten free options at the reception and cocktail hour?

Answer

Yes, absolutely. The entire meal will be vegetarian and the Indian dishes will be suitable for those sensitive to gluten. If you have any questions or concerns, send us a note and we'll follow up on what specifically is safe for any restrictions.
