FAQs

The Wedding Website of Jennifer Michaels and Walter Musial
Question

Can I bring a date?

Answer

We are only able to accommodate those guests formally invited on your wedding invitation. The venue has limited space and will not have a seat or a plate for any uninvited guests.

Question

Are children invited?

Answer

While we love your kiddos, we have decided to keep our reception an adults-only event outside of children in the wedding party.

Question

What is the dress code?

Answer

We would love to see our family and friends get dressed up with us! We are requesting a formal “black tie optional” dress code for our evening - dark colored suit and tie, tea length/midi to full length dresses or full length jumpsuits. No khakis, jeans or casual dresses please :)

Question

Will there be a hotel block?

Answer

Sorry hotel block closed on 10/5

Question

Which airport should I fly in to?

Answer

Philadelphia International Airport (PHL) will be your best bet, it's about 20 minutes from the hotel without traffic. If you're up for a 90 minute drive, Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR) is usually less expensive to fly into. I don’t recommend taking NJ Transit from EWR to Philly but Amtrak is fine.

Question

Will transportation be provided to the wedding venue?

Answer

Yes! We will have shuttle service to and from the venue and hotel. Pickup - 4pm Shuttles back to the hotel will be at 9:30 and 10:30

Question

Can I drive to the venue?

Answer

There is a small lot with an attendant though we suggest that you use the provided shuttle service so you can party worry-free. Should you choose to drive, please do not leave valuables in view or leave your car parked in the lot overnight - unfortunately this area is prone to break-ins. Also, traffic can be tricky so please allow for plenty of time.

Question

What time do the festivities kick off?

Answer

Our ceremony will start at 5pm. Please be aware that traffic in this area sucks so if you’re driving please allow for plenty of time. Cocktail hour starts at 5:30 and is on site. Reception starts at 6:30 and goes until 10:30. Our wedding coordinator and venue staff will be there to direct people but it’s a small venue so don’t worry you won’t get lost. Just don’t fall in the creek :)

Question

I have dietary restrictions/allergies. What's the best way to let you know?

Answer

All allergy info collected with RSVPs has been shared with the caterer. Please be sure to let your server know if any allergies as a reminder.

Question

Will there be an open bar?

Answer

Hell yeah! The drinks are on us, but feel free to bring a tip for the bar staff. Please do not drink and drive, we love you and want you in one piece <3

Question

Can I take photos during the wedding?

Answer

Our ceremony will be unplugged to allow our photographer to work her magic. This will be strictly enforced. Take as many pics as you want during the reception!

Question

Is smoking permitted?

Answer

No. Our venue is located in a large wooded park with over 20 miles of hiking trails. Only you can prevent forest fires! Smoking is not permitted for this reason. Vaping is allowed but please take it outside.

Things To Do

The Wedding Website of Jennifer Michaels and Walter Musial
Before you ask - Geno's and Pats are both edible but there are better places to go :)

Tony and Nick's Steaks

39 East Oregon Avenue, Philadelphia, PA 19148

Walt's favorite cheesesteak spot

Joe's Steaks + Soda Shop

1 West Girard Avenue, Philadelphia, PA 19125

Jen's favorite cheesesteak place (since Jim's burnt down)

Liberty Bell

526 Market Street, Philadelphia, PA 19106

Don't pay to go inside, walk to the corner of 6th & Chestnut, you can see the bell from the big window in the back. If you walk around the side there's a smaller window to peek into as well. Check out the Independence Beer Garden across the street after!

Philadelphia Museum of Art

2600 Benjamin Franklin Parkway, Philadelphia, PA 19130

This is where the famous Rocky steps are

Philadelphia City Hall

1400 John F Kennedy Boulevard, Philadelphia, PA 19107

Good to walk or drive by, the architecture is stunning especially lit up at night. This is the building in the background of the photo up top!

Elfreth's Alley Museum

126 Elfreth's Alley, Philadelphia, PA 19106

The oldest continually inhabited residential street in the US.

The Mütter Museum at The College of Physicians of Philadelphia

19 South 22nd Street, Philadelphia, PA 19103

Museum of oddities - beware it's morbid at times. But it's a unique place to check out.

McGillin's Olde Ale House

1310 Drury Street, Philadelphia, PA 19107

The oldest bar in the city! It's a dive and gets rowdy.

Gayborhood

Philadelphia, PA

All of the best bars and restaurants in Center City are in the Gayborhood! Two of our favorites are listed below...

Sampan

124 South 13th Street, Philadelphia, PA 19107

Upscale Asian fusion - you'll need a reservation

El Vez

121 South 13th Street, Philadelphia, PA 19107

Will need a reservation

Parc

227 South 18th Street, Philadelphia, PA 19103

Great brunch spot - will need a reservation. Hang out across the street in Rittenhouse Park after.

Interstate Drafthouse

1235 East Palmer Street, Philadelphia, PA 19125

This is where we had our first date :) It's a cool neighborhood spot if you want to get out of Center City

Loco Pez

2401 East Norris Street, Philadelphia, PA 19125

This was our second date. Great tacos! I believe they're cash only. Parking sucks around here at night.

Gaul & Co. Malt House

East Thompson Street, Philadelphia, PA 19134

One of our favorite neighborhood spots - get the kielbasa cheesesteak!

Her Daughters

2533 East Clearfield Street, Philadelphia, PA 19134

Our favorite neighborhood coffee shop

Cherry Street Pier

121 North Christopher Columbus Boulevard, Philadelphia, PA 19106

There's a beer garden in the back, great riverfront views of the Ben Franklin Bridge!

John's Roast Pork

14 East Snyder Avenue, Philadelphia, PA 19148

Roast Pork w/ Long Hots is Philly's under the radar best sandwich.

The Home Depot

1651 South Christopher Columbus Boulevard, Philadelphia, PA 19148

This is not a joke - all of our Home Depot's have Italian sausage food trucks out front that people lose their shit over. Neighborhood wise this is probably your best and safest bet.

Bok Bar

800 Mifflin Street, Philadelphia, PA 19148

Rooftop bar with views of the city that are unmatched. Uber here, parking sucks.
