FAQs

Question

Is the ceremony on the beach?

Answer

No. Based on the radar and all information we have available, we are having the ceremony outdoors at The Reeds instead of the beach. We can’t wait to see you there!

Question

What is the timeline for the day?

Answer

Please meet us for the ceremony on the 96th Street beach and be seated by 4:10 PM for the prompt start of our ceremony. After the ceremony, we will meet back at the Reeds for cocktail hour. The cocktail hour and reception will take place immediately afterwards from 5 PM to 10 PM.

Question

Will the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception take place indoors or outdoors?

Answer

Both our ceremony and cocktail hour will take place outdoors, with the ceremony being on the beach and the cocktail hour being outside at The Reeds. It's important to note that the ceremony is on the beach in the sand, so please consider this with your shoe choice. In case of inclement weather, we will make a decision on the wedding day to move both the ceremony and/or cocktail hour inside at The Reeds. Please check the Schedule Tab on our website for updates as necessary - we will make a decision by noon day-of.

Question

Is there transportation to and from the hotels to the ceremony?

Answer

The beach entrance is a straight, 3 block walk from the Reeds. We do not have transportation arranged to and from. If you would prefer not to walk, you are welcome to drive to 96th street beach and back to The Reeds. There is metered parking at the beach entrance. In addition, The Reeds offers a valet service.

Question

Question

I have a food allergy, can I make a special request?

Answer

Yes! Please make a note on your RSVP card of your dietary restrictions.

Question

Is there a dress code?

Answer

Semi-Formal: The bride says formal, so tuxes and gowns are welcome, and the groom says cocktail, so suits and cocktail dresses are also welcome.

Question

Are kids welcome?

Answer

While we love your little ones, our wedding is going to be an adults-only event so that everyone can relax and enjoy the evening. We appreciate you making arrangements ahead of time and leaving the kids at home so you can celebrate with us.
