FAQs

Question

Will there be transportation from the hotel blocks?

Answer

Due to proximity of the Hotels to our venue, we will not have organized transporation. We recommend pre-booking Ubers or Lyfts as you plan your trip. Our venue also provides free parking if needed! As a note, both the ceremony and reception are at The Ruth, so once the party starts there is no need to move locations.

Question

What if I don't want to stay in the hotel block?

Answer

No problem - the hotel blocks are a courtesy but certainly not a requirement. If you want to look at other hotels, anything in Uptown, South End, or South Park will be nice. Keep in mind South Park will be a bit further from the venue. For Airbnbs, we recommend looking in Uptown, Wesley Heights, Dilworth, South End, or South Park. There are plenty of options in the Charlotte area!

Question

What do I wear?!

Answer

Attire is Garden Cocktail. See below generated by Co-Pilot (Chat GPT) Garden cocktail attire strikes a delightful balance between sophistication and relaxed ease, making it perfect for outdoor events like weddings. Let’s break it down for you: For Women: Opt for a semi-formal dress in light pastel hues or flowery patterns. Your dress can be knee-length or even floor-length. If you choose a shorter dress, go for one with a full skirt or some crinoline. For maxi dresses, airy fabrics work best. Wedges are a great choice for footwear—they add elegance without the risk of sinking into the grass. Accessorize with a high-fashion necklace, a clutch or small handbag, sunglasses, or a hat. Keep it simple yet elegant12. For Men: A suit is appropriate for garden cocktail attire. The color and fabric can vary based on the time of day and season. Pair your suit with a simple white dress shirt or one in a light pastel color or subtle pattern. Don’t forget a tie—solid-colored ties work well with patterned shirts. Choose dress shoes like oxfords or loafers; avoid sneakers or sandals. Remember, garden cocktail attire allows you to look polished while feeling comfortable and stylish. Enjoy the celebration! 🌸🍹
