FAQs

Question

What is the dress code?

Answer

Semi-formal attire. We’re picturing suit jackets, pretty dresses (midi or long), and shoes you can dance in. Dress to impress… but mostly dress to celebrate!

Question

What time should I arrive?

Answer

Please arrive between 4:00 - 4:15 pm so you have time to get settled and enjoy the view. The ceremony will begin promptly at 4:30 pm.

Question

Is the ceremony and reception at the same location?

Answer

Yes! Both the ceremony and reception will take place at Stella in New Hope.

Question

What happens if it rains?

Answer

If the weather doesn’t cooperate, the ceremony will move indoors.

Question

Is there parking at the venue?

Answer

Yes! Complimentary valet parking will be available in the Bucks County Playhouse parking lot, which is shared with Stella. Just tell the valet that you’re here for the ‘Catanzaro-Marks’ wedding so they can add you to our tab.

Question

Do you have hotel blocks?

Answer

We’ve reserved some rooms at select hotels. Since New Hope is a small town and September is a popular time to visit, we recommend booking early. Check out the ‘travel’ tab for more info!

Question

Can I book outside the room block?

Answer

Absolutely! You’re welcome to stay wherever is most convenient for you.

Question

Will transportation be provided to and from the hotel?

Answer

At this time, transportation will not be provided since guests are staying at a variety of different hotel options. New Hope is small and walkable.

Question

Are Uber or Lyft available in the area?

Answer

Yes, both Uber and Lyft operate in the area. Because availability can sometimes vary, we recommend downloading both apps. Or scheduling your ride in advance!

Question

Will there be an open bar?

Answer

Yes! Drinks are on us. We’ll have beer, wine, and cocktails flowing all night so you can sip, toast, and celebrate. We’ll also have plenty of non-alcoholic options available.

Question

Can you accommodate dietary restrictions?

Answer

Absolutely! Please let us know of any dietary restrictions when you RSVP.

Question

Can we bring our kids?

Answer

We’re so excited to celebrate with family! We’ll have our nieces and nephews joining us. But for our friends with little ones, we want you to have a fun, relaxed evening, so we’ve chosen to make this an adults-focused celebration. If you need recommendations for local babysitters, we’re happy to help connect you with trusted options!
