FAQs

Question

Are the ceremony and the reception in the same place?

Answer

No they are not. The ceremony will be held at St. Boniface Martyr in Sea Cliff, NY. The reception will be held in Jericho, NY. See invitation for further details.

Question

What is the attire for the day?

Answer

For both the ceremony and the reception, we are asking for formal attire (black tie encouraged). All that means is that we want an elegant evening. If you don't have a tuxedo or formal gown, you don't have to go buy or rent one. Please wear suits, long dresses or dresses that come up to your knee and refrain from wearing short cocktail dresses.

Question

What happens if there is snow?

Answer

We are still getting married!!! The ceremony and the reception are both inside so please dress appropriately to get from place to place. The reception is right on a main road by a Firehouse so it is guaranteed that those roads will be cleared.
