FAQs

Question

When should I RSVP by?

Answer

Considering our wedding is out of the country, we kindly ask that you RSVP as soon as you can, but for those that need more time to plan and consider, please send your RSVP by August 15, 2026 at the latest.

Question

Is there a dress code?

Answer

Yes! Our dress code is Dark Black Tie/Victorian Masquerade. Think timeless black tie with a gothic twist. Guests are invited to dress as though attending a candlelit ball hosted by a 500-year-old vampire in a Dublin castle. Black tuxedos, velvet, lace, dramatic silhouettes, and dark romantic elegance are encouraged. Please keep attire formal while embracing the mysterious, moody atmosphere of Halloween night.

Question

Can I bring a date?

Answer

If your invitation includes a plus one, we would love for you to bring a guest to celebrate with us! You can also confirm this in the RSVP section of our website—simply enter your name, and if a plus one was included with your invitation, you’ll be prompted to add their information. If you’re unsure or have any questions about your guest status, please feel free to reach out and we’ll be happy to help.

Question

Are kids welcome?

Answer

Yes! We know many of our friends and family have little ones, so we’ve included additional guest spaces for those who have children. Please visit the RSVP section of our website and enter your name—there you’ll be able to add the names of any children attending with you. If you have trouble completing this step, feel free to reach out and we’ll be happy to help. If your children will NOT be attending, simply leave those spaces blank.

Question

I have a food allergy, can I make a special request?

Answer

Yes! When you fill out your RSVP information on our website, please answer the question that asks you to indicate any dietary restrictions that we should know of.

Question

What time should I arrive at the ceremony?

Answer

Our ceremony will begin at 4:00 PM, so we recommend arriving about 30 minutes early to allow time to find your seat and get comfortable.

Question

Are you registered? Where?

Answer

We are registered here on Zola. However, your presence at our wedding is truly the only gift we need, so please don’t feel any obligation to give anything more. For those who feel inclined, we’ve created a Newlywed Fund on the Registry section of our website that will help support our honeymoon and our travels between our two family homes in Ohio and Slovakia.

Question

Do you have any hotel recommendations?

Answer

Yes! We’ve selected a variety of hotels to suit our guests’ preferences. You can find a detailed list of hotel options and other travel recommendations in the Travel section of our website.
