FAQs

Question

Are there other hotel options besides The Marriott?

Answer

The answer is YES! If you would like to stay at a different hotel, Baltimore has tons of options. See Below: Hyatt Regency Hotel Monaco Sagamore Pendry Canopy by Hilton Just to name a few!

Question

I have been living in sweats and hoodies for a year, so what should I wear to your big day?

Answer

Us too! So dress up in your finest cocktail attire for what is sure to be an unforgettable night!

Question

Can I bring my kiddos?

Answer

As much as we both love children, this will be an adult only ceremony and reception. Plus you deserve a night out after being around your kids 24/7!

Question

Do I need to rent a car to get around the city?

Answer

The short answer is no. The longer answer is that Baltimore is a pretty walkable city and our hotel is located in a great area right next to The Inner Harbor. Uber and Lyfts are the easiest way to get around as parking can be a pain at times! You can also rent scooters and bikes if you are trying to be green. Our hotel is located 2.5 miles from our venue, which will take you only 10-12 minutes to get there depending on traffic.

Question

I love to take pictures, can I take photos/video during your ceremony?

Answer

We know people love to take pictures and videos, but we ask that you let our awesome photographers and videographers handle the ceremony with their expertise! Once the unplugged ceremony is over, however, get those cameras rolling during the cocktail hour, reception, and dancing! We thank you in advance as we want to see all your beautiful faces while walking down the aisle!

Question

I see it says “indicate” on your RSVP card. Should I put a number or an initial?

Answer

Please initial each food choice to help out our amazing caterer!

Question

I just found out I have a food allergy. Should I let you or Aaron know??

Answer

YES!! Please let us know ahead of time if you have any dietary restrictions or allergies and we will be able to accommodate you!

Question

My RSVP card did not have a stamp on it...way to go E.Patt!!

Answer

That's my bad! I doubled and tripled check, but I may have missed a few (I blame it all on the pandemic and perhaps wine:) ) and it is extremely bad etiquette! If this is the case, please let me know and I will Venmo you the 55 cents:)

Question

I have not been on a school bus in a while. Will there be transportation to the venue?

Answer

Yes! Buses (2) will arrive to the Lobby at 4:00 on Saturday with a departure time of 4:10. Please be on time! Transportation will also be available on the way back either to the hotel or to the After Party at Max's at the conclusion of the wedding.

Question

So I hear there is a new shot around town...something about a vaccine?

Answer

First of all, the health and safety of our guests is of the upmost importance to us. We encourage everyone to get a vaccine or have a negative Covid test prior to our wedding. We want our night to be memorable and want all our guests to feel safe!

Question

I have been wearing this thing on my face for a while, so do I need a fancy one for your wedding?

Answer

The mask mandate officially ends in Baltimore City on July 1st! As always, we respect everyone’s wishes and please do whatever you feel comfortable with. We will have plenty of hand sanitizer at the venue because hey I’m a teacher and believe in washing hands:)
