FAQs

What is the dress code for your wedding?

All Black, Black tie weddings are elegant, sophisticated, and classy elements. For the guest, this means sticking to a strict formal dress code. Ladies have to wear long formal ball gowns, not very revealing cocktail dresses or dressy jumpsuits. And the guys should consider sophisticated and classy tuxedo ensembles, or at least fitting dinner jackets, bow ties, tailcoats, cummerbunds, and nice shoes or fresh sneakers.


Are children welcome?

Although we love your children, we regretfully cannot accommodate them at the venue and to give all our guests the opportunity to celebrate without having to worry about little eyes and ears, we politely request no children.


Will there be transportation to and from Hotel to Venue?

We encourage all of our guests to drink and drive responsibly, a shuttle service will be provided to all guests staying at the Courtyard Marriott in Waterbury. We suggest even if you live locally to book a room so you can partake in the celebration and get home safely. Please see link with information on booking hotel rooms.


Is there someone I can contact if I have any other questions about the wedding?

Please contact Bride or Groom prior to their big day. If any questions or concerns arise on the day of the wedding please contact Shemaikabinns@outlook.com.

Are plus one’s allowed?

As we prepare for our big day, we’re filled with gratitude for your presence in our lives. While we would love to accommodate everyone’s wishes for plus ones, we kindly ask for your understanding as space constants necessitate a more intimate gathering, where plus ones are limited to married couples and long term committed relationships (if granted a plus one, your invitation will have your plus one listed) Your support and presence mean everything to us and we can’t wait to share this special moment with you.
