FAQs

The Wedding Website of Elizabeth Dolgicer and Matthew Leva
Question

When should I RSVP by?

Answer

Please RSVP by Monday, June 1.

Question

Can I bring a +1?

Answer

Our venue has a firm capacity limit. As much as we’d love to include everyone, we’re only able to accommodate guests who are named on the invitation.

Question

Can I bring my kids?

Answer

Friday’s welcome drinks are family-friendly, and we’d love to see your kids there! Saturday’s wedding and reception will be adults-only, so everyone can enjoy a festive evening. If you’re bringing children for the weekend, we recommend arranging childcare in advance. Our venue suggests Care.com as a helpful resource for finding local, qualified sitters.

Question

What is the dress code?

Answer

WELCOME DRINKS (FRIDAY 8/28) Dressy casual. Think summer dresses, skirts, or jumpsuits for women, and dress pants or chinos with a button-down for men. No suits or ties needed -- just something polished and comfortable for a celebratory evening. WEDDING RECEPTION & PARTY (SATURDAY 8/29) Formal attire. Suits or tuxedos are welcome. Elegant dresses are perfect for our outdoor, tented celebration in the Catskills. The ceremony will take place on grass, so wedges or block heels are recommended. Our reception tent is fully floored, so you won’t need to worry about heels sinking during the party. Evenings can be cool in late August, so a light layer is encouraged.

Question

What if I have dietary restrictions?

Answer

Dinner will be served family-style with a variety of dishes. If you have any allergies or dietary needs, please let us know when you RSVP, and we’ll ensure you’re taken care of.

Question

Are there hotel room blocks?

Answer

Due to the busy season, hotels in the area are not offering traditional room blocks, so we recommend booking accommodations as early as possible. We’ve suggested a range of hotels for both weekend and one-night stays, as well as nearby Airbnb options, on our Travel & Lodging page. Many of these are located on or near the wedding shuttle route for easy transportation.

Question

What’s the best area to stay in?

Answer

We recommend staying in or near Mount Tremper, Phoenicia, or Woodstock, ideally along the wedding shuttle route. These areas are closest to the venue and make transportation the easiest. We recommend booking accommodations as early as possible. Please see our Travel & Lodging page for recommended hotels and Airbnb options.

Question

When should I book accommodations?

Answer

We recommend booking as soon as possible. Lodging in the Catskills is limited (despite the many wedding venues in the area), and options tend to fill up quickly given seasonal demand and other weddings in the area. Please see our Travel & Lodging page for recommended hotels and Airbnb options, or feel free to book accommodations of your choice. If you plan to use the wedding shuttle, be sure to check which hotels include a shuttle stop.

Question

Where can I book a hotel for only one night?

Answer

Many hotels in the Catskills require a two-night minimum stay. If you’re looking to stay for just one night, the nearby town of Kingston offers several hotel options that allow one-night bookings. Please see the Travel & Lodging page for additional details and recommendations.

Question

Is parking available at the venue?

Answer

Friday (8/28 Welcome Drinks): Limited on-site parking will be available. Guests are encouraged to carpool or pre-arrange transportation if needed. Saturday (8/29 Wedding Reception): Parking will not be available at the reception venue. Guests driving in for the day should plan to park at a designated location along the shuttle route, where shuttle pickup will be provided. For full parking and transportation details, please see the Travel & Lodging page.

Question

Is transportation needed for Friday night welcome drinks?

Answer

No, transportation is not required for Friday night welcome drinks. Limited on-site parking will be available, and guests are encouraged to carpool or pre-arrange a taxi if needed. Please see the Travel & Lodging page for additional details.

Question

Will there be transportation to and from the wedding on Saturday?

Answer

Yes. Shuttle transportation will be provided for Saturday’s wedding reception, with designated pickup locations at select hotels listed on the Travel & Lodging page. Parking will not be available at the reception venue, so guests should plan to use the shuttle or arrange alternative transportation. If you are not staying at a hotel with a shuttle stop, please plan to travel to one of the designated pickup locations to catch the shuttle. A detailed shuttle schedule and pickup locations will be shared closer to the wedding date, both on our website and via email.

Question

Will the shuttle pick up at my Airbnb?

Answer

Possibly -- some Airbnbs may be eligible for direct shuttle pickup, depending on final timing, headcount, and route logistics. As we get closer to the wedding, we’ll have a better sense of what’s feasible. In general, shuttle service will run along confirmed routes with designated pickup locations at select hotels, which will serve as the primary shuttle stops. A list of these hotels (and shuttle stops) can be found on the Travel & Lodging page. Exact pickup locations and the shuttle schedule will be shared closer to the wedding date, both on our website and via email. We’ve also suggested several Airbnbs located very close to the venue and designated pickup locations on the Travel & Lodging page to make getting around as easy as possible.

Question

Are Uber or Lyft available?

Answer

No. Rideshare services like Uber and Lyft are not available in the area. Please plan to use the wedding shuttle or arrange transportation in advance. Cell service can be limited/spotty in the area, so it’s important to make transportation plans ahead of time rather than relying on same-day requests. More information can be found on the Travel & Lodging page.

Question

Where can I grab a welcome bag?

Answer

If you’re staying at one of our recommended hotels, welcome bags will be available for pickup at the front desk. If you’re staying at an Airbnb or another hotel, you can pick one up at Friday night’s Welcome Party.

Question

What should I do during free time?

Answer

We’ve shared some favorite restaurants, hikes, and spots in the area on our Things to Do page.
