FAQs

Question

What is the dress code?

Answer

For the ceremony, we recommend semi-formal attire in breathable fabrics. For the dinner and reception, feel free to come as you are dressed from the ceremony. If you don't mind an outfit change, Chinese festive attire (i.e., qipao, Tang jacket, jewel tones) is welcome but not required.

Question

Where can I find parking?

Answer

Free parking is available in the Arboretum parking lot and along Beryl Road in marked parking spaces. Free parking is available in G.58's dedicated parking lot.

Question

Will there be a transfer to dinner?

Answer

While we won’t be providing a shuttle between the ceremony and reception, the two locations are a 18-minute drive apart, and rideshare services like Uber and Lyft are readily available in the area.

Hyatt House Raleigh-Durham Airport (10962 Chapel Hill Rd) and TownePlace Suites Raleigh-Durham Airport (1021 Carrington Mill Blvd) are walking distance from our reception venue and may serve as convenient lodging options.
