FAQs

A few helpful details to make the weekend easy and stress-free. If we missed anything, just ask—we’re happy to help!
Question

Transportation, Parking - HELP!

Answer

Paid parking is available near the venue at 1334 N Front St and 1400 N Howard St. We recommend taking the shuttle from Element Philadelphia Downtown (departing 3:15 PM) or Ubering directly to Lilah. If you're making your own way to the venue, please plan to arrive by 4:00 PM so you're seated by 4:20 PM — the ceremony begins promptly at 4:30 PM.

Question

What should I wear? Are we indoors or outdoors for the night?

Answer

We just want everyone to feel like their best selves, so we’re dressing up! Black tie optional, and color, sparkles, etc. are encouraged to make photos pop. Gals: gowns or elevated cocktail dresses. Pals: feel free to break out your tuxes or colored suits. Looking for a dress? Try nuuly.com Ceremony, cocktail hour, reception, and after party are all indoors so we'll be safe from any rain throughout the night!
