FAQs

Question

Hold up, what's the latest on this wedding situation?

Answer

Due to COVID-19, we opted to postpone our originally planned celebration. However, we're back on schedule and look forward to having as many of our friends and family there with us on May 13, 2022.

Question

Since we're on the subject, what are the COVID-related requirements?

Answer

We are requiring that all guests attending any of the wedding festivities be vaccinated (and boosted, if possible). Proof of vaccination may be requested. Additionally, if you believe you may have been exposed and/or infected, we ask that you quarantine for at least one week and take a COVID test prior to attending. We understand that these requirements may impact your ability to attend our wedding but, while this saddens us because we would love for you to join us, we want to prioritize the safety of all our guests. If you are unable to get vaccinated due to a medical exemption or anticipate any issues complying with the above, please let us know as soon as possible.

Question

When should I RSVP by?

Answer

As soon as you know! You'll be able to formally RSVP once the invitations have been mailed. In the meantime, clear the calendars!

Question

Do you have any hotel recommendations?

Answer

Yes, we currently have hotel room blocks at the Courtyard Montvale and Armoni Inn & Suites. Please see our travel page for more information.

Question

Is there transportation to and from the hotels to the venue?

Answer

Yes, we will have shuttles from both the Courtyard Montvale and Armoni Inn & Suites. Please see our travel page for more information.

Question

Is there parking for the ceremony or reception?

Answer

There will be valet parking!

Question

Is there a dress code?

Answer

Yes, the dress code is formal/black-tie optional! Indian outfits are considered formal. Feel free to celebrate our Filipino and Indian cultures with us on our special day! *Please do not wear white or red as these are colors traditional to the bride only* Helpful links: https://www.theknot.com/content/what-to-wear-indian-wedding

Question

Are we going to be indoors or outdoors?

Answer

The ceremony will outdoors (weather-permitting) and the reception will be indoors, though we will have outdoor space available as well.

Question

What time should I arrive at the ceremony?

Answer

EARLY! But actually, feel free to arrive by 6pm. If you arrive late, there's a high chance you'll miss the action!

Question

Can I bring a date?

Answer

Unfortunately, in order to accommodate our close friends & family, unless you've been given a plus one, the answer is probably "no".

Question

So...about the bar...?

Answer

Open bar, baby!

Question

I have a food allergy, can I make a special request?

Answer

Yes, please reach out and let us know if you have an allergy. We understand and respect the seriousness of food allergies!

Question

If I really like the centerpieces, are we allowed to take them home at the end of the night?

Answer

No, please do not take any centerpieces or parts of the centerpieces! Each centerpiece has been provided by Floreal Blooms, a sustainable floral design company, who will be collecting them once everything wraps up. Floreal Blooms donates a portion of their proceeds to the National Forest Foundation and taking parts of the centerpieces ultimately undermines their ability to minimize waste.

Question

Are there any other events that I should know about around the wedding?

Answer

Yes! We are in the process of finalizing the details on a wedding afterparty and post-wedding breakfast, both of which are expected to at the Courtyard Montvale.

Question

If I can't attend in-person, is there any way to attend virtually?

Answer

We will update you with information about attending virtually once we have more information.
