Question

What are we doing to minimize the risk of COVID?

Answer

Fortunately, there is a vaccine and many of the guests will have hopefully taken it before the wedding date. Everyone can do their part and help us reduce the spread by following state guidelines. If you think you may have COVID nearing the wedding date, please do not attend, there will be children and elderly guests.

Question

What are we supposed to do during the break between lunch and cocktails?

Answer

Because this is an all-day event there will be an intermission of 3 hours after lunch to cocktails, this is standard practice. We recommend exploring the area, going back to your hotel to freshen up or even take a nap. We know we'll be needing one!

Question

What is the dress code?

Answer

We will be having an Indian ceremony and an American reception. The bride and groom will be wearing traditional Indian wedding clothing for the ceremony and change into a wedding dress and suit for the reception. The overall dress code would fall in the semi-formal category. There will be guests on both sides wearing either Indian or American attire. It is ultimately up to each individual what they feel comfortable wearing during both events.
