FAQs
Question
What time should I arrive?
Answer
Our Ceremony will begin promptly at 4:00pm so we kindly request that you arrive 30 minutes early to ensure you don't miss anything. This will also give you time to park and find your seat. Once the ceremony begins, entrance will not be granted until the ceremony is completed.
Question
What is the dress code?
Answer
The dress code for our wedding is Formal or Black Tie Optional. Wearing a tuxedo, a suit with a tie, dress pants with a blazer, a floor-length gown, cocktail dress, or dressy separates are ideal. Think elegant and sophisticated! Please refrain from wearing white, beige or creams. We can't wait to see everyone dressed to impress on our special day!
Question
Can I wear black?
Answer
Yes! The wedding party will be wearing black but it's also Black Tie Optional! If black is what you want to wear, please do!
