FAQs

The Wedding Website of Stephanie Crook and Christopher Scalia
Since we couldn't provide every detail of our event on the invite, here are the answers to some additional questions we thought you might have. If there's anything we didn't cover, please give us a shout!
Question

Can we bring our children?

Answer

While we love all the small people in our lives, our wedding is a child free affair. We’d like all our guests, including you, to have an evening to enjoy some adult fun!

Question

Can I bring a plus one?

Answer

Possibly. If your plus one was not included on your invitation, we aren't anticipating them. If someone you would like to bring was not named on your invitation, please confirm with us that they are able to attend.

Question

Is there an open bar?

Answer

There is! The drinks, including our very own signature cocktails, are on us! Though we do encourage our guests to show your appreciation for the bartender!

Question

What's the dress code?

Answer

The dress code for our event is formal. Men should wear suit and tie in darker tones. Women should wear longer dresses, midi or floor length. Our wedding colors are dark green, champagne and ivory. Please avoid these colors. And of course, no white or blush.

Question

Why is there a booking deadline at the hotel?

Answer

We have secured the room block at The Heritage Hotel, meaning they will reserve 25 rooms for our party at a special rate. In the interest of filling rooms, their policy requires release of the block within 45 days of the event. Guests may absolutely still reserve rooms after Feb 2, 2027. However, the reduced rate may not be granted.

Question

Is there transportation available from the hotel?

Answer

There is no transportation provided from the hotel to the wedding venue. However, there is only one exit between the wedding venue and the hotel, and we encourage carpooling!

Question

Where do I park at the wedding venue?

Answer

There is an upper parking lot to the left. Follow signage for "Wedding Parking".

Question

What time should I arrive at the wedding venue?

Answer

Our ceremony will begin promptly at 5:00pm. Guests will be welcomed into the ceremony space beginning at 4:30pm to ensure everyone is seated and ready on time. Guests arriving prior to 4:30 are encouraged to take in the beautiful grounds of The Whittemore!

Question

Why doesn't the registry page have any gifts? I only see a honeymoon fund.

Answer

While gifts are absolutely not required, we appreciate your generosity. As we have our own home with all the traditionally requested items in it already, instead we asked for donations to our celebratory trip. We will have a card/gift box at the reception, if you would prefer to give your gift in-person.

Question

Can I take pictures at the reception?

Answer

Yes! We encourage you to take photos at our reception and share via our special QR code. However, our ceremony will be unplugged. We have hired photographers to capture photos of our event and would like each of our guests to share in our ceremony with us. Rather than watching through other guests' phone screens.
