FAQs

Question

What are we doing with COVID-19?

Answer

We understand some people may not want to come to New York with this current climate. If we can have our wedding in August we want to do that! We don’t want *anyone* to be putting their lives at risk to come to our wedding. If you are uncomfortable we understand if you’d prefer not to come. We will miss you and may have a live feed so you can watch. If you aren’t feeling well, please stay home! It’s okay if you RSVP’d earlier and need to change it. We are currently relying on the state of NY to tell us if we can hold an event with +100 and do not expect this news to come until July so we appreciate your patience. We will make an announcement if anything changes. As far as postponing, we aren’t sure what we would do and will let everyone know if that is the case.

Question

I don't feel well but already RSVP'd "yes". What should I do?

Answer

Please stay home. We understand that you may feel well enough to come anyway but do not want to risk the health of others. Please don't worry about our head count or being rude. Just send us a message and let us know. We will understand.
