FAQs

Question

Do you have any hotel recommendations?

Answer

Yes! Please see the travel page on our website for our recommendations. Hotel Tonnelle New Orleans, located in the Garden District neighborhood, is closest to the wedding venue, but please stay wherever you think you'll be most comfortable!

Question

Are kids welcome?

Answer

Yes, children are welcome to attend our wedding celebration!

Question

What is the dress code?

Answer

For the Welcome Party, the dress code is Semi-Formal, but have fun with it - we're gay and live in New York, go for it! For the Ceremony and Reception, the dress code is black-tie optional.

Question

Do you have a wedding registry?

Answer

Your presence is a gift! While we do not have a gift registry, please consider donations to Winston-Rhea Scholars, The Southern Poverty Law Center, or the American Civil Liberties Union.

Question

I have a food allergy, can I make a special request?

Answer

Yes, being good hosts is important to us and we want to make sure you're well fed. We are happy to accommodate most food allergies and dietary restrictions! Please let us know in advance.

Question

This is my first gay wedding, what should I expect?

Answer

First, you should expect to enjoy yourselves. Like all weddings, we're striving to express our love for each other and marriage both through and outside the traditions we grew up in. If you are not sure that you are comfortable celebrating gay marriage, along with all forms of love and gender expression, no hard feelings if you choose to celebrate us from afar.
