FAQs

Question

Is there a dress code?

Answer

The dress code for our wedding is black tie optional! This means floor length dresses for ladies and tuxedos for gentlemen. Out of respect for the bride, ladies are asked not to wear white or white-patterned dresses.

Question

What time should I arrive at the ceremony?

Answer

Please arrive to the venue at the earliest 4:30 PM with the latest seating of 4:50 PM. Guests who arrive later than 4:50 will not be allowed to enter the ceremony area, but will be able to join us at cocktail hour on the terrace at 5:30 PM.

Question

Are kids welcome?

Answer

Unfortunately, due to limited venue space, we are unable to accommodate children at the wedding. Thank you for understanding!

Question

Can I take photos with my phone during the ceremony?
