FAQs
Question
First things first... what about the after party?
Answer
The reception ends at 10... so join us as we walk down to "The Saint Bar & Lounge" a late night watering hole with a DJ about 2 blocks away! We would love to keep the celebration going with all of our favorite people!
Question
What does Black Tie Optional actually mean?
Answer
A black-tie optional dress code gives guests a couple of formal options to choose from. If you wish to wear pants, a tuxedo is welcome, but a dark suit is also a welcome option, or dressy separates. If you wish to wear a dress/skirt, you may choose either a formal evening gown, a shorter cocktail dress, or dressy separates.
Question
What time should I arrive at the ceremony? And where do I sit?
Answer
We ask our guests try to arrive around 4:30-4:40pm as the ceremony will start promptly at 5pm! Seating is tight for the ceremony, but if the church looks full there is additional seating upstairs where you will have a beautiful view of the whole space (getting to the upstairs loft is stairs only). If you're having trouble, we will have some ushers available to help you find a spot as well!
Question
Is there parking?
Answer
Street parking is limited. We suggest that our guests carpool or take an uber to the celebration! If you do drive, please do not leave valuables in your car and remember to lock it!
Question
Is there an elevator?
Answer
Yes! If you require an elevator there is one located in the middle of the space to the back right.
Question
How long is the ceremony?
Answer
It is a Catholic ceremony. We expect it to be about 45 minutes!
Question
What if I can't make it in time to the ceremony?
Answer
No worries! We know Fridays can be difficult. We kindly ask that if you cannot make it for the 5pm ceremony that you still join us for the Second Line immediately after the "I do's" and of course the reception!
Question
I have a food allergy, can I make a special request?
Answer
Of course! We do have vegan and vegetarian options available, but if there is anything you are concerned about please reach out to us (Monica or Ray) in advance!
