Yes! When you RSVP, please let us know if you have any dietary restrictions, and we’ll do our best to accommodate them. Our cocktail hour appetizers will also all be clearly marked if they are vegetarian or gluten-free friendly.

Question

What should I wear?

Answer

We would love to see our guests to join us in dressing up in their Sunday best for the occasion. We recommend a semi-formal/cocktail attire dress code, but whatever you’re most comfortable in is perfect as well! Gentlemen, please feel free to wear a suit or dress shirt. Ladies, a cocktail dress or dressy seperates are great. The weather in Michigan can often be unpredictable, so it’s best to be prepared for both warmer and cooler fall weather!

Question

What about after the reception?

Answer

Looking to continue the celebrations? Guests are welcome to gather and mingle in the Hyatt Place Lansing - East lobby and patio areas after the reception. The hotel bar closes at midnight, so feel free to bring down your own snacks and drinks if you’d like! There will also be a small group of the bridal party heading to Rick’s in downtown East Lansing for any who want to join!
