FAQs

Please find our frequently asked questions about our wedding day and their corresponding responses below. If there is a question unanswered below, please email us at kalinaandalexwedding@gmail.com.
Question

When is the RSVP deadline?

Answer

April 5, 2024

Question

What if I do not RSVP on time?

Answer

If we do not receive an RSVP back by the date in which we have provided, it will be marked as a "No." We will miss you celebrating with us, however we have to provide total guest counts to the venue in the timely manner they have given to us and cannot accept late RSVP's due to this. We hope that you understand!

Question

Can I bring a plus one?

Answer

Your wedding invitation envelope will state who is invited. If you get a plus one it will state your name and guest on your invitation envelope. Please note you cannot invite more than what is written on the envelope.

Question

Have you reserved hotel room blocks?

Answer

Yes! But if you are reading this, it is after April 5, 2024 and our discounted bloc at the Westin Old Town Alexandria has now closed. However, there should still be rooms available to book.

Question

What's the a dress code?

Answer

We'd love to see our family and friends dress up with us! We are requesting semi-formal attire. For the ladies: floor length gowns, a shorter cocktail dress, or dressy separates. Color suggestions: solids or florals in shades of green, rusty orange, yellow and slate gray. For the gentlemen: a dark suit (black, navy, grey, etc.)

Question

Is there an open bar?

Answer

Yes, the drinks are on us and the hangover is on you so get ready to celebrate!

Question

How should I arrange transportation?

Answer

Bus transportation will be available to and from the Westin Old Town Alexandria at 400 Courthouse Square, Alexandria, VA 22314. BUS SCHEDULE: There will be *one* bus DEPARTING for the wedding at 3:30 p.m., and *two* busses EXITING the venue, one at 8:15 p.m. and another at 9 p.m. Bus capacity is 32 people and first-come, first serve. Otherwise, there is ample parking available at the venue. Need to call a ride? Please use our Uber voucher code "r7LzxUoxoiR" for $10 off your ride from 3:15 p.m. to 12:30 a.m. on Sunday, May 5, or download Uber & automatically add the voucher using this link: https://r.uber.com/r7LzxUoxoiR (We tried but I guess Uber doesn't make cute voucher codes anymore).

Question

Will your wedding be indoors or outdoors?

Answer

Almost the entirety of our wedding, weather permitting, will be held outdoors on the property grounds. The reception will take place underneath a tent. There is a midsized room indoors where food & wedding favors will be served. Please plan to dress accordingly! Should it rain (boo!), the ceremony will also take place underneath the tent.

Question

I heard there will be alpacas...

Answer

You're correct. Two miniature alpacas dressed in their wedding best, plus a baby goat, will be at the venue from 4:30-5:30.

Question

Should I come hungry? What type of food will be served?

Answer

Of course. There will be passed hors d'oeuvres as well as a cheese & charcuterie board available during cocktail hour, and dinner will be served buffet-style with a selection of dishes including chimichurri steak, herb grilled chicken, salad and more. Desserts include a variety of tarts, plus a carrot cake with cream cheese frosting & apricot preserves from Red Bandana Bakery.

Question

What time will your wedding reception end? Is there an after-party?

Answer

Guests must leave the property at 9 p.m., but the party will continue at The Trademark bar at Westin Old Town Alexandria until 12 a.m.

Question

That was a long FAQ!

Answer

It's over now! Time to party!
