FAQs

Question

When is the RSVP deadline?

Answer

Please RSVP no later than June 15, 2026.

Question

How should I get to the wedding?

Answer

The reception venue is located just one mile from the ceremony location, yet parking can be tricky on a Saturday night. For this reason, we recommend utilizing rideshare apps like Uber and Lyft. If you decide to drive, there are dedicated parking lots at the chapel. For the reception, you can park in the lot across the street, or take advantage of street parking in the surrounding neighborhood behind the venue. *Stay Tuned: Some of us may walk from the Chapel to Pizzaiolo.
