FAQs

Question

When should I RSVP by?

Answer

As soon as you are able to PROMISE that you are coming! We are so excited to have you but the venue will NOT save a seat for you if you do not RSVP. We ask that you please RSVP as soon as you possibly can if and when you have made plans within reasonable accommodation to attend. ♥ Jawad + Zainab

Question

THE WEDDING RECEPTION WILL NOT HAVE SEATING ARRANGEMENTS!

Answer

Find a table, take a seat and save your seats! This is a party and everyone will find their spots to enjoy their dinner, desert and the dance floor! I always encourage you to mingle respectfully! Some people may not like to mingle and that's okay, but generally, everyone is friendly.

Question

Can I bring a date?

Answer

Please add them to the RSVP if you plan to bring a date. We need to do this so we can accommodate on our seating chart.

Question

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

Answer

There may be family dinners, outings or gatherings that will happen during the time span between events. A bridal shower or a grooms shower might happen. A bachelor party may be planned. A bachelorette party might be planned. The bride and groom are a very social couple. We enjoy going out and being with you! Please feel free to reach out to us if you would like to hang out.

Question

I am upset and offended or I don't understand why...?

Answer

I am sorry that you feel that way. I promise you that we have made every reasonable accommodation to compromise on this wedding and the mixing of families from two very different cultures. If you feel strongly about Nace's choices in religion or name change then please speak to us about it to better understand his reasons why. If you feel strongly about Nace's choice in marrying into a Lebanese-American family and would like to better understand how our families function, then respectfully ask and try to understand. If you feel strongly about Zainab's decision to marry Nace (Jawad) then please talk to her about it. If you have questions about her and her relationship with Jawad, then talk to them about it. If you have concerns and need validation about certain concepts such as dating, physical touch, and other types of personal questions regarding their relationship, then talk to them. If you feel strongly about decor, weight gain or loss, or anything pertaining to personal, sensitive questions then approach with caution and be prepared for whatever reaction you might receive. Both families mean well. We all have different perspectives on what is okay and what is not. We all want to get along. We want everyone on their best behavior! Children will snicker and adults will gossip. This is normal at every wedding and it will be even more so at this wedding. Please try your best to attend these events and enjoy yourself as much as you can. The bride and groom have poured their hearts out; blood, sweat, and tears; to have this wedding and see you there. If you are seriously concerned or feel like you have some hard boundaries/lines and you don't know what to do, reach out to the bride or groom! We are more than willing to help, as long as you are willing to respect us and be there for us too! Please understand that the bride and groom want this to be a peaceful start with the best of intentions and blessings to their future!

Question

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