Frequently Asked Questions
What should I wear? +
Formal attire, please — think cocktail dresses, suits, or tuxedos in rich winter tones. Both venues are grand indoor spaces, so heels are no problem; just bring a warm coat for the short walk between the shuttle and the door.
Is this an adults-only celebration? +
With love, we've kept the reception adults-only, with the exception of immediate family. We hope this gives parents a night off to celebrate with us.
Can I bring a plus-one? +
We're keeping the guest list close to family and close friends. Your invitation and RSVP form will note if a plus-one is included.
What happens if it rains? +
Both the ceremony and reception are indoors, so the celebration goes on regardless of weather. It'll be December in Philadelphia, though — pack a warm coat for the short transition between venues.
Is there parking and a shuttle? +
Yes to both — a round-trip shuttle runs between The Logan Philadelphia, the Cathedral, and the Art Museum, and valet parking is available at the Art Museum for the reception. Details are on the Travel & Lodging page.
Who do I contact with questions? +
