FAQs
Question
What is the run of show?
Answer
Doors open at 3PM. Bar is open upon arrival. Ceremony starts at 3:15PM. The ceremony will be brief and followed by a "cocktail hour" with pretzels and passed hors d'oeuvres (and booze-a-plenty...this is a bar after all). Dinner is served from the grill, which will be open from 5:30-7:30PM. Go up and grab a bite when you're hungry. Then pick a spot to eat – there are plenty of seats. Horn band and DJ will be switching off so the dancing doesn't stop. 8PM –– that's a wrap! (until the after party)
Question
Can I take pics/vids of the ceremony with my phone?
Answer
We'd prefer no personal photos or videos at this time. We've hired a photographer and videographer to capture the moment.
Question
Are children invited?
Answer
This is an adult-only party. Enjoy the night off!
Question
Where is the dance floor?
Answer
Radegast can accommodate over 400 people – and we'll be half that – but it's a bar, not a wedding venue. So, if you feel the dance floor is too crowded...dancing on the tables is not only permitted, it's encouraged.
Question
What are the after party details?
Answer
The after party is at a nearby dive bar/bowling alley, The Gutter, from 8:30 - 10:30PM. It's a ten minute walk from Radegast. We have lanes and bowling shoes reserved. As well as fresh socks, so you're not slipping your bare feet into somebody's smelly shoes. Bowling is on us, but drinks are on you. Luckily, the drinks are pretty cheap (for NYC). Not interested in bowling? No worries! There's a pool table, good company, and we'll have a high top reserved so you've got somewhere to hang.
Question
Where can I park?
Answer
There are plenty of garages to choose from in the area if you'd like to reserve the best deal ahead of time. The closest garage is 22 N 5th St. (N 5th and Kent ave). On a Sunday, street parking is typically pretty easy to find as well. FYI - Don't park in the garage across the street from the venue. It is parking for Whole Foods customers only, and you will have to buy something to leave.
