Question

When should I RSVP by?

Answer

If you received your invitation and know that you 100% cannot attend (you will be missed!), please let us know at your earliest convenience. Otherwise, please RSVP to each event by April 27, 2022 so we can plan accordingly.

Question

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

Answer

Definitely! We will be hosting a welcome event, the night before the wedding (May 26) and a sunset cruise the evening after the wedding (May 28). More details can be found on the "Weekend Details" section of this site.

Question

Are kids welcome?

Answer

While we love your little ones, our wedding and the evening activities on May 26 and May 28 are going to be adults-only so that everyone can relax and enjoy themselves. We appreciate you making arrangements ahead of time and leaving the kids with friends or family so you can celebrate with us. If your children are in town with you for the weekend and you need a sitter, check out the following services: Newport Nannies http://newportnannies.com/ Care.com https://www.care.com Sittercity.com https://www.sittercity.com

Question

Do you have any hotel recommendations and/or room blocks?

Answer

Yes! Please refer to the "Travel & Accommodations" section of this site. There are also plenty of options on Airbnb & VRBO if a group would like to stay together. For other hotel options and availability, we recommend using Hotels.com.

Question

Can I bring a date?

Answer

We have a set guest list as we really want our closest family and friends to share our special day with us. We will only be able to accommodate those listed on your invitation. Thank you for your understanding!

Question

What time should I arrive at the ceremony?

Answer

Please arrive to Gurney's Newport Resort & Marina by 5:00pm to make sure everyone is on time and we can get the party started as scheduled! For those staying at The Wayfinder or Quality Inn & Suites, there will be a shuttle to bring you to/from the venue.

Question

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

Answer

Yes! The shuttle will arrive to Quality Inn & Suites at 4:15pm and depart at 4:20pm. The shuttle will then go to The Wayfinder and arrive approximately at 4:35pm and depart at 4:40pm. There will be two shuttles departing from Gurney’s at 11:00pm and 12:30am both dropping off at The Wayfinder and Quality Inn & Suites.

Question

Is there a dress code?

Answer

For the wedding day, the dress code is Semi-Formal: Tuxes and gowns are welcome, and so are suits and cocktail dresses. The other events are much more casual, feel free to wear whatever you're most comfortable in!

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

Answer

When you RSVP for the wedding reception, there will be a section where you can list any dietary requirements.
