FAQs

Question

When should I RSVP by?

Answer

We would love your response as soon as you know it, but definitely by February 18th so we can give a final count to the restaurant.

Question

Is there parking?

Answer

Parking in Portsmouth is always a bit of an adventure! While there is street parking on Court Street, and limited parking at The Hotel Portsmouth, we suggest getting there early to find a spot. For RiRa, you may be able to find a spot on the street, though the parking garage is only a couple minutes walk to the restaurant.

Question

Can I bring a guest? Are kids welcome?

Answer

We kept the Guest List very small so we may have a celebration with those near and dear. Only those stated on the invitation are invited.

Question

Is there a dress code?

Answer

The dress is semi-formal (suit and tie, though suit coats are optional, and cocktail dresses).

Question

What is an "Unplugged Ceremony"?

Answer

We’ve hired an amazing photographer to capture our special moments with her camera, so you can capture how it feels with your hearts. Please turn off your cell phones during the ceremony and keep them tucked away. We would much prefer your shining faces in our professional photography instead of your phones.

Question

What kind of Reception is it?

Answer

We are having a fabulous lunch at RiRa Irish Pub. Not your traditional reception, so no MC, dancing, or bouquet tossing. Just a nice meal, some good conversation, and a great time!
