FAQs

Question

What should I wear? Is there a dress code?

Answer

The dress code is black tie optional! For the guys, a tuxedo or a dark suit. For the ladies, anything from a full length gown to a cocktail dress! The ceremony is on grass, so you may want a block heel. We will also provide flats later in the evening for dancing :)

Question

Are kids welcome?

Answer

While we love your little ones, our wedding is going to be an adults-only (18+) event so that everyone can relax and enjoy the evening. We appreciate you making arrangements ahead of time and leaving the kids at home so you can celebrate with us!

Question

Are there other wedding events I can attend?

Answer

Absolutely! We appreciate that so many of you are spending your holiday weekend with us, so we will be hosting Welcome Drinks at the Fastnet Pub on Friday, May 27th at 8:30pm after the rehearsal dinner. On Sunday, we will host a brunch at the Ocean Cliff, and then will likely end up back at the Fastnet for the fun to continue! They have an Irish band on Sundays :) Please remember to RSVP for these events on the website if you plan on attending.

Question

Where should guests park? Is parking free?

Answer

We have a couple of options for parking and transportation. There is PLENTY of parking at OceanCliff, which is free. If you don't want to drive, we will have two pickup locations for the shuttle bus. One at the Wayfinder Hotel, and one at the Newport Harbor Hotel (a central location for those renting around downtown Newport). There will also be Ubers, but keep an eye on this throughout the weekend because availability varies.

Question

What will the weather be like this time of year?

Answer

Thats the question! The average weather for Memorial Day Weekend in Newport is 60 degrees, partly cloudy. Last year, it was raining and 45 degrees, so we will have a rain/indoor plan as well. Hope for the best!

Question

When is the RSVP deadline? Do I need to mail back my RSVP or can I do it online?

Answer

RSVP Deadline is May 1st! You can mail RSVPs or do it on our wedding website, under the RSVP tab, which is honestly the easier option.

Question

May I take a centerpiece/candle/flowers home as a souvenir?

Answer

Please do!

For all the days along the way
