FAQs
Question
When should I RSVP by?
Answer
The sooner, the better! We ask that you send in RSVPs by July 15th.
Question
Can I bring a plus-one or my children?
Answer
We wish we could celebrate with everyone you love — we truly do! But due to venue capacity and space limitations, we’re only able to accommodate the guests listed on your invitation. If your invite doesn’t mention a plus-one or your children, we kindly ask that you join us solo for the celebration. While some little ones will be there, we had to make tough decisions to keep things cozy. Thank you so much for understanding — we’re so grateful to have you as part of our day!

Question
There is a day in between the sangeet and the ceremony/reception. What should we do?
Answer
Check out our "Thing To Do" page! There are plenty of places to go eat and explore no matter what your mood is.
Question
What should I wear?
Answer
Indian or western is totally up to you! A South Indian bride will likely wear a silk sari while an Indian groom may wear a dhoti for an Indian Hindu wedding ceremony. Many wedding guests may wear similar attire. Many women will wear saris, lehengas, langas, half saris, anarkalis (the list goes on!) If you do not have any traditional Indian attire, formal Western attire, like a suit or cocktail dress, would also be acceptable. Indian weddings are super colorful. Let your imagination flow with color choices for outfits.

We're here for the food! What will be served?
Answer
We all love good food! The food will be served buffet style, so our guests will have the option to choose what they’d like to eat, including plenty of vegetarian options. The lunch served after the ceremony will be all vegetarian per Hindu customs.
