Good to Know

We know weddings come with a lot of questions: what do I wear? Where should I stay? Is there an open bar? (Yes.) Instead of bombarding us with texts, we’ve rounded up the need-to-knows, nice-to-knows, and don’t-worry-we-got-you’s all in one place. From dress codes to directions, this is your wedding weekend cheat sheet. Scroll on, get informed, and then go pack something cute.
Question

What is formal, all-black attire?

Answer

Formal all-black attire typically features elegant and sophisticated clothing in solid black. For men, this often includes a classic black tuxedo or tailored suit, paired with a white dress shirt, black tie or bow tie, black leather dress shoes, and minimal accessories. For women, it may consist of a floor-length black gown or a sleek dress, complemented by black heels, understated jewelry, and a refined clutch. The overall look emphasizes refinement, cohesion, and timeless style, with attention to fit and fabric quality.

Question

When should I RSVP by?

Answer

Please RSVP by October 1, 2025.

Question

Am I on the guest list for the ceremony?

Answer

We’d love to have everyone join us for every moment, but our ceremony will be kept small and intimate with just close family and friends. Please check your invitation to see which events you’re included in. We’re so excited to celebrate the night away with all of you at the reception!

Question

What time should I arrive at the reception?

Answer

Arrive on time to soak up every moment. Cocktail hour starts at 6:30 PM, and dinner comes next. We’ve got something special planned from start to finish!

Question

Can I bring a date?

Answer

We’re so excited to celebrate with our closest friends and family, and due to limited space, we’re only able to accommodate the guests listed on the invitation. If your invitation says “and guest,” then yes, your plus one is already counted in. Otherwise, we hope you understand that we’ve carefully curated our guest list and seating chart, and unfortunately can’t make any changes at this point. Thank you so much for understanding!

Question

Is there parking for the reception?

Answer

Parking is limited for the reception. We highly recommend a ride share to The Orpheum. However, there is a parking garage next door and valet parking at The Roosevelt Hotel.

Question

Are there any other events that I should know about around the wedding?

Answer

We have a few events planned for our wedding weekend! Some celebrations are for all guests, while others are private or by invitation only. Please double-check the timing and details on our website to be sure you have the correct information for the events you’re included in. Make sure to RSVP to the ones you can attend.
