FAQs
Question
By when should I RSVP?
Answer
Please RSVP by September 1, 2023.
Question
What should I do if I cannot make it?
Answer
You will be missed! If you cannot make it to the wedding, please let us know as soon as possible and RSVP "no" so that we can plan accordingly.
Question
Is there a dress code?
Answer
Our dress code is Black Tie Optional (after much deliberation, and we acknowledge that "Black Tie" is printed on the invitation). If you already have a tuxedo or gown, wear it! If not, a dark or formal suit, or a tea length dress is also appropriate. Our military guests are welcome to wear their uniforms (for example: ASUs or mess dress), but no pressure to do so. *Please note: The Army and Navy Club requires a coat and tie for men and an equivalent for women.*
Question
Can I bring a date?
Answer
While we would love to include everyone's significant others, we have had to limit our guest list to close friends and family and are only able to accommodate those guests formally invited on your wedding invitation. Please feel free to reach out to us with any questions!
Question
I have a food allergy/am gluten free/ am vegan, can I make a special request?
Answer
Yes. Please contact us if you have a special request.
Question
Are you registered? Where?
Answer
We are registered through Zola and Amazon and you can find the registry on the tab above.
Question
What time should I arrive at the ceremony?
Answer
Please try and arrive 30 minutes prior to the ceremony (at 2:00pm) to be seated in time.
Question
Is there transportation to and from the hotels to the ceremony?
Answer
Transportation will not be provided to the ceremony. A bus will depart St. Peter's Church at 4:30pm for the Army and Navy Club. We understand that there will be about an hour gap between the ceremony end and the bus departure, so it's a perfect time to rest up before dancing the night away or checking out a fun bar in the Capitol Hill area. Taking the bus is not required! If you choose not to take the bus, there are plentiful Ubers in the area and there is car parking at the Army and Navy Club.
Question
Is there parking for the ceremony or reception?
Answer
There is plentiful street parking near St. Peter's Church on C, D, and 2nd Streets. There will be (limited) valet parking for $13 at The Army and Navy Club. However, we encourage our guests to take the night off from driving, especially if you plan to partake in our open bar!
Question
Do you have any hotel recommendations?
Answer
Please check out the "Travel" tab for our recommended hotels and hotel block.
Question
Are babies/ toddlers welcome?
Answer
While we love kiddos, and hope to be blessed with some of our own someday, our wedding is going to be an adults-only event so that everyone can relax and enjoy the evening. We appreciate you making arrangements ahead of time and leaving the kids at home so you can celebrate with us.
