We have a block of rooms reserved at The Logan and Le Meridien Philadelphia hotels. There are also many other nice hotels and airbnbs in the area. See "Travel" tab for more details and links.
There is no shuttle from the airport to either of the hotels where we have blocks reserved, but it is easy to get a rideshare (Lyft/Uber) or taxi from the airport! The ride will be about 20 minutes (depending on traffic in center city).
Yes! We will be having a welcome event with drinks and bites at a local brewery on the Friday evening before the wedding. We will also be having a brunch on Sunday morning. See "Schedule" tab for more details.
Yes, there is plenty of parking at the Franklin Institute, but city parking is expensive so we encourage you to carpool, use a ride share, walk, or take the shuttle from one of the hotels. You can find more information here: https://www.fi.edu/directions-parking
Please arrive promptly at 5pm for the ceremony.
Dinner will be served buffet style. We will be sure to indicate common allergens on the labels for all food served.

Yes! We have reserved two (air-conditioned) shuttle buses for transportation between each of the hotels and the venue on the day of the wedding. If you are staying at one of the hotels, you will receive an itinerary with more information and specific timing at check in.
We have received Special Event COVID-19 Test Kits from the city of Philadelphia. If you are staying at one of the hotels where we have reserved a block, you will receive rapid test kit(s) along with an itinerary at check in. We ask that you test on Friday or Saturday. If you are not staying at one of our hotels and are able, we ask that you take a rapid test before coming to the wedding out of respect for the young and immunocompromised in attendance. If you are unable to acquire a COVID-19 rapid test and would like one, please contact us at vickramandcolleen@gmail.com.
