FAQs

Question

What is the dress code?

Answer

Dress Code Color Palette: Emerald Green and Black We’re keeping things semi-formal to formal — the goal is polished, put-together outfits, so please avoid jeans or casual wear. Within that, feel free to express your personal style and have fun with your look! Ladies: Dresses of all kinds are welcome, including sundresses, cocktail dresses, floor-length gowns, jumpsuits, and two-piece sets. Flowing or fitted styles, short or long, strapless or straps, and any fabrics all work beautifully. Stick to the color palette, and choose what makes you feel confident and comfortable. Gents: Dress shirts with slacks or dress pants, suits, blazers, vests, or a sweater layered over a collared shirt are all appropriate. Ties or bow ties are optional but always welcome. Dress shoes, loafers, or polished boots are recommended, with dark tones that complement the emerald and black color palette. Long or short sleeves are perfectly fine, and you’re welcome to choose lighter or thinner fabrics—whatever feels comfortable for the June weather. This is a celebration, so above all, wear something that makes you feel great and ready to enjoy the day! We kindly ask that no white, cream, or similar color be worn to allow the bride to shine! Thank you!

Question

Can I bring a plus one?

Answer

Invitations are addressed to the guests listed. To keep the celebration intimate and meaningful, we’re asking that no additional guests or dates attend. We truly appreciate your understanding as we celebrate this special day with the people who are closest to us, and we’re so excited to share it with you!

Question

What time should I arrive at the celebration?

Answer

The celebration starts at 1 PM and ends at 7 PM . We recommend arriving about 10 minutes early — enough to get settled, but not too early! Traffic may be heavier than usual since it’s a Saturday during the FIFA World Cup (more information in things to do section), so please plan accordingly.

Question

Are kids welcome?

Answer

Our wedding will be an adults-only evening, with just a few family exceptions. We’ve envisioned a relaxing and fun celebration true to our vision, and for those bringing their little ones note it is lasting around six hours. Thank you for understanding and helping us create the joyful and intimate night we’ve dreamed of! We can’t wait to celebrate with you!

Question

What happens if it rains?

Answer

No worries! The celebration will take place rain or shine. We’ll have tents and covered outdoor areas, so everyone will stay comfortable and dry. Either way, we’re excited to celebrate with you!

Question

Will there be alcohol?

Answer

Yes! There will be a variety of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages available throughout the evening. We want everyone to relax, toast, and enjoy the night, so there will be plenty of options for all tastes. We can’t wait to celebrate with you!

Question

I still have questions, what is the best way to contact you?

Answer

For any questions or concerns, please feel free to email our wedding email address! oliviaandnicodemeowedding@gmail.com or reach out to Olivia or Nico!

Question

Can I take pictures?

Answer

Absolutely! There will be a professional photographer, but we’re happy for guests to take pictures and videos too. We’d love it if you share them with us afterward so we can enjoy all the memories from your perspective!

Question

How should I RSVP?

Answer

Please visit the RSVP page on our website and let us know by May 15, 2026 whether you’ll be joining us so we can plan accordingly and confirm things. We truly hope you can make it — we sent our invitations early to give everyone plenty of time to plan and make arrangements. That said, we completely understand if travel or timing makes it difficult to attend. Your love and well wishes mean so much to us, and we’ll be celebrating with you in spirit if you can’t be there. If you’re able to join us, we can’t wait to celebrate together and have the best day ever!

Question

Is swimming or using the pool allowed?

Answer

Because everyone will be in formal attire and the pool will be decorated, the pool will be closed during the event. Light cooling off at the edge (like dipping hands or splashing your face) is totally fine. Please note that no pool toys (water guns/blasters, noodles, water balloons, etc.) and no excessive splashing will be allowed at any time. In addition, please still be mindful—no big splashing or rough play near the pool, many guests will still be nearby in their formal clothes. Thank you for understanding and we can’t wait to celebrate!

Question

Is there parking for the celebration?

Answer

The celebration will take place at the Berkowitz backyard. There is street parking available, as well as parking on surrounding streets. Carpooling is encouraged when possible, especially for families or groups traveling together, but separate cars are completely fine too. If you plan to drink, please make sure to have a designated driver that’s also invited or use Uber or Lyft to get home safely.

Question

Do you have a wedding registry?

Answer

Yes, we have a wedding registry! You can find all the details on the Registry page of our wedding website! That said, we truly appreciate anything you choose to give, whether it’s from the registry, something you send, or something you bring. Your love and support mean the most to us, and we’re so grateful to celebrate with you!

Question

What if I can’t make it?

Answer

We completely understand that plans can change! If you aren’t able to attend — whether you already RSVP’d or hadn’t yet — please let us know by contacting us so we can adjust our plans. Please let us know as soon as possible if you can’t make it. We’ll miss you and hope to celebrate together another time!

Question

Are uninvited guests allowed?

Answer

Because this is a private residence, only invited guests are allowed. Anyone arriving without an invitation will be asked to leave, and property rules will be followed to make sure the day stays fun and safe for everyone. Thank you!

Question

What If I can’t stay for the entire duration of the celebration?

Answer

That’s absolutely okay! We’re grateful you can celebrate with us at all. If you expect to leave before dinner or cake, please let us know your approximate departure time so we can plan appropriately. You can do this anytime after you RSVP, as we know in advance before the celebration. Thank you!
