FAQs

Question

When should I RSVP by?

Answer

The sooner the better! There are limited spots on the boat, so we want to make sure your passage is reserved.

Question

What time should I arrive at the ceremony?

Answer

Passenger boarding starts at 11am on June 20th for the 12pm reception start time. Don’t be late, or the ship will leave the wharf without you!

Question

Is there a dress code?

Answer

Semi-formal to formal. Think “day-cruise-across-the-Potomac-River-to-see-Washington-DC’s-historic-landmarks” classy.

Question

I have a food allergy, can I make a special request?

Answer

Yes! Please let us know ahead of time so we can prepare the chef.

Question

Can I bring a date?

Answer

Due to the limited capacity on The National Elite, we are limiting guests to only those whose names are listed on the invitation. So unfortunately, no casual plus ones. BUT, if you have a committed partner you’d like to bring along that we might not have added, please reach out and let us know so that we can check to see if there is a spot on board :)

Question

Are kids welcome?

Answer

This is not a child-free wedding, per sé, but due to the strict limited capacity on The National Elite, we are unable to accommodate last minute or multiple additions. If you would like to bring children, please reach out ahead of time to check if there are any open spaces available onboard. We cannot guarantee there will be, but it won’t hurt to check!
