Will the wedding be indoors or outdoors?
The wedding ceremony will be outdoors by the water, weather permitting. The reception will be in downtown Detroit, with the cocktail hour outside if the weather allows, followed by an indoor reception.
Can I bring my kids?
As we have large extended families, we've made the decision to limit our guest list to adults and those specifically listed on your invitation. We hope you understand, and please don’t hesitate to reach out if there’s anything we can do to assist.
What is the dress code? What should I wear?
We kindly request that our guests dress in formal attire. For men, suits or tuxedos are encouraged, and for women, elegant dresses and gowns are perfect. We look forward to celebrating with everyone.
Can I bring a plus one?
We are at capacity with our venue which means we are sadly unable to accommodate additional guests. We will only be able to accommodate those listed on your invitation. If you have any questions, please reach out.
Will there be parking/valet abaliable?
Yes and yes! There is a parking lot available at The War Memorial for the ceremony. At the reception, Book Tower Detroit offers a nearby parking structure, and valet service will also be available.
Can I take and post pictures of the wedding on social media?
We love photos! We do ask that you refrain from taking photos during the ceremony, we’d like that time to be unplugged. For the rest of the wedding, we encourage guests to post pictures using our wedding hashtag.
Do you have a hotel block for guests? Where do you recommend I stay?
Please be sure to check out the Travel tab on our wedding website for information regarding hotels and travel arrangements. We highly encourage guests to stay in downtown Detroit, as it’s convenient for walking or taking an Uber/Lyft to your hotel after the reception.
I have dietary restrictions, what’s the best way to communicate that with you?
We definitely want to make sure you enjoy your time and meal on our wedding day, please let us know when you RSVP about your dietary needs.
I have a question that I just can’t find the answer to, what is the best way to contact you?
