Question

When should I RSVP by?

Question

Do you have any hotel recommendations?

Answer

We have a room block at the Hampton Inn & Suites by Hilton that provides a discounted rate when you reference the "Stevens Talburt Wedding Group." The cutoff date for the discounted rate and room block is December 16th. Please see the "Travel" page for a direct link and more information.

Question

Is there a dress code?

Answer

For the welcome party, we are requesting men wear collared shirts and pants. Women should wear cocktail dresses or dressy pantsuit/jumpsuit. The venue is right on the bay so we recommend bringing a sweater or jacket. For the wedding, we would love to see you in your winter best! Tuxes and gowns are welcome, and so are suits and cocktail dresses. The entire evening will be outdoors so we recommend bringing a sweater or shawl. We have also created a visual guide for you to reference: https://pin.it/43E9nU5Bu
