FAQs

Question

How do I RSVP?

Answer

Our RSVP deadline has passed, and we are now finalizing the details for the big day.

Question

What time should I arrive at the ceremony?

Answer

The aquarium closes to the public at 5 PM and the ceremony starts at 6 PM — you should be fine if you arrive between 5:30-6.

Question

Will the wedding be inside or outside?

Answer

The ceremony and cocktail hour will be outdoors (with backup accommodations in the sea star building if it rains). The reception is inside of the aquarium.

Question

What's the parking situation?

Answer

There is valet parking at the aquarium. For hotel guest staying at the Hyatt Place overnight, there is a parking lot for hotel guest only directly across the street. For those of you who do not wish to use valet parking, there are some Riverhead municipality lots in the area -- but many of them have a time limit.

Question

Is there a dress code?

Answer

Cocktail attire. Please keep in mind that since this event is at an aquarium, shoes must be worn at all times. If you anticipate that your shoes might become uncomfortable by the end of the night, please bring a change of shoes with you.

Question

What exactly is cocktail attire?

Answer

For women, the key to cocktail attire is elegance with a knee-length, tea-length, midi dress, or jumpsuit, avoiding gala gowns, short mini skirts, or anything too revealing. For men, a suit and tie. https://www.brides.com/story/wedding-dress-code-explained#toc-cocktail
