Frequently Asked Questions

The answer, my friend, is blowin’ in the wind.

  • As much as we wish this was a no-shower happy hour at the OD, this is a black tie optional event. If you have a tux, feel free to wear one, however don’t feel the need to go out and rent or buy one. Mid-length or floor-length dresses for the ladies.

  • Of course — as long as your formal invitation is addressed to you and your guest. Please do not bring a guest if your invitation is only addressed to you.

  • We love your kids — we really do! However, please consider this your night off. Outside of our bridal party, this is a strictly 21 and up event.

  • About half a mile. Transportation will be provided to and from the ceremony, from each hotel, as well as to the reception. The hotels are 2 blocks from the Crystal Tea Room.

  • The ceremony begins at 2pm, but Kelly’s late to everything so just try not to be later than her.

  • There will be about a 2 ½ hour time gap between the ceremony and reception so we recommend checking out Assembly’s Rooftop bar (across the street from the ceremony) or heading over to McGillin’s (across the street from the reception).

  • We’d love to see them! We’ve created a shared Google Photo album that can be accessed here.

    We do ask that you refrain from taking any photos during our ceremony. We want to see your faces — not your phones!

  • Check-in is at 4 pm at The Loew’s. If you reserved a room for the night of and need to get ready before the ceremony at 2 pm, there will be a courtesy suite available for you to use. Ask the front desk for more information.
