Question

When did the bride and groom meet?

Answer

April 25, 2015

Question

I heard the bride and groom prefer “experiences” as wedding gifts. What’s that all about?

Answer

Yes this is true! Although we would appreciate any gift, we prefer to invest in memories that will bring us closer together. We’d like our guests to think through some of their favorite things to do and gift that to us by contributing to our “Experiences Fund.” This could be tickets to a hockey game, dinner at a new local restaurant, an appointment at Hope Floats in Bethesda, tickets to a show at the Kennedy Center, etc. If you are unsure, we left a list of our favorite experiences that you can contribute to on our registry. Also, we just bought a home so we are registered at Macy’s, Target, Crate & Barrel, Pottery Barn, and Bed, Bath & Beyond for “Home Essentials.”

Question

What is the dress code?

Answer

Formal attire only please.

Question

Am I allowed to bring a plus one or my kids?

Answer

Unfortunately, we will not be able to accommodate additional guests. Each household on our guest list will receive a mailed invitation with the specific names of invited guests from their household. Since we are serving a plated dinner, the venue will enforce strict adherence to our guest list. With the exception of a few adolescents under 21 from the bride and groom’s families, this will be an adult celebration.

Question

What is recommended for transportation to and from the venue.

Answer

We recommended driving your own vehicle/rental or taking Uber or Lyft. There is plenty of free parking at the venue. Also, please be mindful of the open bar and reserve a night at the Marriott using our wedding block. Safety first!

Question

Is there parking at the venue?

Answer

Yes! There is plenty of free parking.

Question

What are the wedding colors?

Answer

Primary Colors: Plum and Silver Secondary Color: White
