Ceremony at St James will start promptly at 2:30pm. We recommend arriving between 2 and 2:15pm. Only the bride is allowed to be fashionably late.
Please pay attention to whom the invite is addressed to. If it states "The Santos Family", for example, all members of the family including both parents and all children are invited. If your invite specifies your name & Guest, you may bring a date. For example "Miss Raquel Santos & Guest" would include Raquel and a plus 1 of her choice. If addressed to "Mr. & Mrs. Peskosky" then we are reserving 2 spots for the addressed guests.
While there is no strict code, we would recommend cocktail attire. For example, short or long dresses for the ladies and suit & tie for the gentlemen. Also, only the bride gets to wear white (or off-white) ;)
We have secured a block at a hotel nearby with discounted rates for a set number of rooms for a few dates. You can stay from Oct 3-6, Oct 4-6, or Oct 5-6 under our block. All rooms are the same rate. It will be at The Hub Murray Hill, BW Premier Collection in New Providence, NJ (link is under TRAVEL tab). It is about 15-20 min drive to the church and to the reception. A shuttle will be provided for guests staying at the Hub Murray Hill from the hotel to the Stone House for the reception, and back to the hotel at the end of the evening. *PLEASE NOTE that you can reserve under our block until August 5, 2024. After this date, the rooms will be released to the public and will increase in price. We can not guarantee any additional rooms after this date*
There will not be transportation provided to the ceremony, however, if you're staying at The Hub Murray Hill hotel where we have reserved the block, a charter bus will be provided from the Hotel --> The Stone House --> back to Hotel. Please don't drink and drive ;) Times of bus departure will be communicated with guests closer to the date of the wedding.
Yes! At the church there is plenty of parking, and at the Stone House there will be valet parking available.
