FAQs

Question

When should I RSVP by?

Answer

Please RSVP by July 24, 2026

Question

What time should I arrive at the ceremony?

Answer

Guests will be able to enter the venue starting at 1:00 PM, and the ceremony will begin promptly at 1:30 PM. We recommend arriving close to 1:00 so you have plenty of time to park, make your way in, and find a seat before the ceremony begins.

Question

Can I bring a date?

Answer

Unfortunately not. We are limited on seating so if you are given a +1 it will be noted on your invitation.

Question

Do you have any hotel recommendations?

Answer

Yes, please find them on the travel page.

Question

Is there parking for the ceremony or reception?

Answer

Yes, both venues have parking available.

Question

Is there transportation to and from the hotels to the ceremony?

Answer

Yes! We’ll be providing shuttle transportation from the AC Hotel, Residence Inn Downtown Portsmouth/Waterfront and Hampton Inn & Suites Portsmouth Downtown (all listed on the travel page) to the ceremony at The Viewpoint, and then on to the reception at The Hawthorn. At the end of the evening, shuttles will also be available to bring guests back to the above hotels along with the additional stops of The Bow Hotel and The Hotel Portsmouth. If you’re staying elsewhere, you’re welcome to Uber, walk or drive to one of the shuttle pickup locations or head directly to the venue. **hotels subject to change depending on how many guests request transportation from a specific hotel.

Question

Is there a dress code?

Answer

We suggest cocktail or semi-formal attire. Suits or dress pants with a jacket are great for men; cocktail dresses or dressy outfits for women. The ceremony will be outdoors and the reception indoors, so consider comfortable shoes and a light layer for cool September weather.
