FAQs
Question
What is the attire?
Answer
Dress like you're going to a wedding! Cocktail attire is perfect, but here's a rule of thumb: try to dress ALMOST as good as us.
Question
Is there parking at the venue?
Answer
You may be fortunate to find metered parking on the street. The venue recommends the following garages, but be sure to ask an attendant what time the garage closes: *Madison Parking Garage, 111 River Street, Hoboken, NJ 07030, https://littlemanparking.com/facilities/madison-parking-garage/ *iPark, 62 Observer Highway (1 Washington Street), Hoboken, NJ 07030, https://ipark.com/garage/1-washington-street-parking-corp/ *Municipal Garage B, 28 2nd Street, Hoboken, NJ 07030, https://www.hobokennj.gov/resources/municipal-garages
Question
How do we get from the hotel to the venue?
Answer
UPDATE as of 8/9/25: We have reserved a shuttle to transport all guests from both hotels. Pick up will depart from the Canopy at 4:00 pm, so be sure to be just outside the hotel at least a few minutes before then. If you are staying at the Residence Inn, you are less than a 2 minute walk from the Canopy. Following the celebrations, the shuttle will depart Antique Loft at 10:30 pm and return to the Canopy. The shuttle service is provided by Ramstar Transportation. If you have any questions on the wedding day about the shuttle, please contact Cheryl Burack at (518) 378-0876. If you're feeling adventurous, both hotels are at the Grove Street Path station. Take the Hoboken/33rd Street bound train two stops to Hoboken. The venue is a 5 minute walk from the Hoboken Path station. Each way costs $3, and you can purchase a MetroCard (same as in NYC) at a vending machine. You can also tap and go (called TAPP) with a credit card or your phone wallet. An Uber ride from either hotel to Antique Loft should take approximately 15-20 minutes and cost approximately $20.
Question
Do you really mean NO GIFTS?
Answer
YES! NO GIFTS! NO EXCEPTION!
Question
Why NO GIFTS?
Answer
There is literally nothing we need or want. (Well, except maybe for a country home or a beach house.) For our wedding, all we want is for our guests to join us in celebrating. We very much appreciate the sentiment of gifts, but you MUST resist the urge and respect our NO GIFTS mandate!
Question
Are there stairs at the venue?
Answer
There is an elevator at Antique Loft. There are also stairs for those who want to get a few extra steps in. The ceremony and reception will be on the sixth floor, and the cocktail hour will be on the fifth floor.
