FAQs
Question
What should I wear?
Answer
Please wear something comfortable for the hot weather (especially consider bringing sunglasses). Although this is an evening wedding, we are not expecting ladies to wear floor length gowns and men to wear a full suit with jacket and tie. Beach formal attire suggestions include but are not limited to: cocktail dresses, slacks, shirt, jacket, etc. Reach out to the bride and groom with any questions (518) 810-9075. Please don't show up in your beach gear, but definitely wear something light and breezy.
Question
What type of food will be available?
Answer
After cocktail hour with passed hors d'oeuvres, we will be serving a plated meal. You will have the choice between beef, chicken, seafood, or vegetarian. Don't worry, the food is PHENOMENAL. If we are not already aware of any allergies, please let us know ASAP. There will be an open bar and plenty of cold beverages available so please do NOT bring your flask, as we will get kicked out immediately.
Question
Can I have my phone out during the ceremony to take photos?
Answer
We are requesting an unplugged wedding. Please do NOT be that person seated in the crowd sticking your phone up straight in the air or out in the isle to capture the moments of our loved ones walking down the aisle (cough, cough...all the mama's out there). I know you love us, and we love you too, but we don't want to see you crouching by the perimeter of the dance floor as we share our first dance. Our photographer is amazing and will capture every single moment for everyone to see!
Question
Where should I stay?
Answer
There are a few options to choose from right near the venue. Please keep in mind that this is considered busy season for Virginia Beach, so don't wait until the last minute to book your stay. The closest hotel to the venue is the Double Tree listed under the hotel section of this website. The best hotel (in our opinion) at the ocean front and away from all of the tourist, is the Marriott Virginia Beach Oceanfront Resort with lots of fun things to do within walking distance. If you choose to stay at a hotel on the boardwalk anywhere from 1st-35th street, consider yourself warned of the crazy people and good luck! If you aren't a fan of the hotels, check out rental options on Airbnb or VRBO.
Question
Can I leave my car at the venue over night?
Answer
Yes!! There will be valet service available upon arrival and you may leave your car overnight if you choose to uber on the way home.
