Question
Is there a dress code?
Answer
Yes! Our wedding will be Black Tie Optional. Please avoid wearing any white dresses so Nikki can feel special on our wedding day. Please avoid wearing a soft, Eucalyptus green (a bit darker than Sage green) as this will be the attire for our wedding party. "Black Tie Optional" definition: Encouraged to dress in formal evening wear, but it's not a strict requirement. Men can wear a tuxedo, but a dark suit with a tie or bowtie is also perfectly fine. Women can opt for a long gown or elegant cocktail dress, but dressy jumpsuits or chic separates are great alternatives. It’s about being stylish and celebratory, while allowing for some flexibility.
Question
What is an unplugged ceremony?
Answer
An unplugged wedding ceremony means we kindly ask guests to turn off their phones, cameras, and other devices during the ceremony. This helps everyone stay present and engaged in the moment, allowing us to fully enjoy the experience together. It also ensures our professional photographers and videographers can capture the best memories without distractions. Thank you for helping make our day even more special!
Question
What should we do if we need to cancel or change our RSVP?
Answer
If you need to update your RSVP, whether it's a change in your attendance or the number of guests, please reach out to Nikki & Aries as soon as possible. This helps us finalize our plans and make any necessary adjustments. The closer to our wedding date, the harder it will be to add people, but please keep us posted on any RSVP updates regardless of how close it is to the day. Thank you for keeping us updated!
Question
Are there accommodations for guests with mobility issues?
Answer
Yes, we want all our guests to feel comfortable and welcome! The Sutton Place Hotel has elevators available (from the lobby as well as from the underground parking lot). There are a few stairs up to the Scottish Cultural Center from the main entrance, but there is also a ramp on the side of the building as well as an elevator from their back parking lot. If you need any specific accommodations or assistance or have concerns, please let us know in advance, and we’ll do our best to help.
