Answer
Unless your guest is explicitly listed on the Save the Date or RSVP, we kindly ask that no additional guests be brought to the event.
Question
Is there a dress code?
Answer
We request black-tie optional attire for the wedding. Tuxes are not required but welcome. Summery gowns, cocktail dresses, and suits with ties are also appropriate. Above all, we want you to be comfortable so you'll join us on the dance floor!
Question
Is there transportation to and from the hotels to the ceremony?
Answer
Yes! A complimentary shuttle will depart from the front of Graduate Hotel at 4:30pm to Grounds for Sculpture and return at 11pm. Even if you are staying at Nassau Inn or elsewhere, we encourage you to use the shuttle.
Question
Will the wedding be outdoors?
Answer
Weather permitting, the ceremony will be outdoors in the sculpture garden. Please wear sunscreen if needed, and keep in mind that the grass may be soft when selecting your footwear. The cocktail hour and reception will be held on a covered patio and indoors.
Question
What time will the reception end and will there be an after party?
Answer
The reception will end at 11pm. An after party will follow in downtown Princeton, though details are still being arranged.
Question
I have a food allergy, can I make a special request?
Answer
Yes! Please let us know as soon as possible about any dietary restrictions so we can coordinate options with the caterer.
Question
Is there parking for the ceremony or reception?
Answer
Yes, any guests who are driving to the ceremony should park at Rat's Restaurant (not the general Grounds for Sculpture parking lot). From there, you will be directed to the ceremony.
Question
Can I take pictures?
Answer
We will have an "unplugged" ceremony and kindly ask that you refrain from taking any photos or videos. Our officiant will let you know at what point you can snap a picture!
