What is the RSVP deadline?

We kindly request that all guests RSVP by March 6th 2026. Due to strict venue and catering requirements, we will unfortunately be unable to accommodate those who do not RSVP by the deadline. Regrettably, we cannot make exceptions for late RSVPs or unexpected guests on the day of the wedding.

Are children allowed?

Due to limited space, we are only able to accommodate adult guests. We respectfully request that this be an adults-only reception.

Is there a dress code?

The dress code for our wedding is Cocktail / Dressy Casual. To us, that means a balance between polished and comfortable. We suggest cocktail dresses, jumpsuits, and suits or button-up shirts with slacks. Please avoid wearing white.

What time should I arrive?

Doors open at 3:00 PM. The ceremony will begin promptly at 3:30 PM. If you are not inside the venue by the start time, you will not be admitted until the ceremony has finished.

What is the timeline for the event?

Guests can begin arriving at the venue at 3:00 PM. The ceremony will begin at 3:30 PM. Dinner will begin at 4:00 PM and be available until 8:00 PM. The reception will end at 9:00 PM

Will there be a parking lot/designated parking area?

Yes! Our new venue has ample free parking! Additionally Aura Event Hall is very rideshare-friendly. If you plan on hitting the bar and indulging in a drink (or three), Uber and Lyft can easily drop you off and pick you up right at the door.

Food and Beverage

To Eat: Russian charcuterie-style snacks, a Mexican street taco dinner, and a pastry table packed with mini desserts and candies. To Drink: Beer, seltzers, wine, Martinelli's, soda, and water. (No hard liquor will be served and no outside alcohol, please!). Bar Note: The bartender will be checking current IDs, so please bring yours along if you'd like to enjoy the alcoholic beverages!

Important Bar Note

Even if you are well past your 21st birthday, the bartender must see a current, valid ID before serving you any beer, wine, or seltzer. No exceptions can be made, and we'd be heartbroken if you couldn't join in on the toasts! So please double-check for your ID before you head out—we want everyone to be able to celebrate fully!
