FAQs

Question

What is Dinner with the DePrees?

Answer

Dinner with the DePrees is our take on a wedding celebration: an outdoor ceremony followed by cocktails, a formal seated dinner, music, and an intimate evening at Onwentsia Club. Rather than a traditional ballroom reception with a dance floor, we’re creating the feeling of an elegant private dinner party centered around great food, conversation, and time together.

Question

What time should we arrive for the wedding ceremony?

Answer

Please arrive between 5:00 and 5:15 PM. The ceremony will begin promptly at 5:30 PM.

Question

Are the ceremony and dinner at the same location?

Answer

Yes. The ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner and celebration will all take place at Onwentsia Club.

Question

Will the ceremony be outdoors?

Answer

The ceremony is planned to take place outdoors, weather permitting. An indoor alternative will be available in the event of inclement weather.

Question

What is the dress code?

Answer

Formal dinner party attire. Men to wear a suit jacket and a tie at the club, and ladies to wear elevated cocktail attire or long dresses. The ceremony will take place outdoors; we recommend a light layer with the weather. The bride's only rule: Just don't wear white! :-)

Question

Are children invited?

Answer

Children who are included in the celebration will be specifically named on the formal invitation.

Question

What happens after the ceremony?

Answer

Cocktails, dinner, and the evening celebration will immediately follow the ceremony at Onwentsia Club. Live jazz and celebrations continue after our dinner as well!
