When is the RSVP deadline?

Please RSVP by May 1st, so we can finalize arrangements. You can RSVP directly on our website through the RSVP tab.

What is the best way to give a wedding gift?

We are not doing a traditional gift registry. If you would like to give a gift, red envelopes (hóngbāo) are a meaningful and cherished tradition in Chinese culture. You’ll find a gift table near the banquet entrance with someone there to collect them—cash or check is welcome. That said, there’s absolutely no pressure. Your presence, love, and support mean the world to us, and we’re just so excited to celebrate together!

Where is the Wedding Venue

The venue is located at 4207 Main St, Flushing, NY 11355, on the second floor. When you arrive, you’ll see a main staircase that leads directly to our reception!

Are there any nearby airports?

Yes! The closest airports are LaGuardia Airport (LGA) ~9 miles away and John F. Kennedy Airport (JFK) ~13 miles away. Both are easily accessible by car or rideshare. If possible, please avoid Newark Liberty International Airport, as it is located in New Jersey. If you are staying east of Manhattan, we strongly recommend LGA or JFK airports.

Should I rent a car?

Unless you have next-level parallel parking skills, we don’t recommend renting a car if you’re just traveling between Great Neck, Flushing, and Manhattan. The LIRR (Long Island Rail Road) is an easy and direct way to get around, and Uber/Lyft are readily available. If you do decide to drive, parking can be a bit of an adventure—but there are garages and hotel parking options nearby.

How do I get to the venue?

If you’re staying at The Andrew Hotel in Great Neck, we will coordinate a vehicle to bring guests to the venue, so you won’t have to worry about transportation. If you’re staying elsewhere, Uber, Lyft, and taxis are easy options as they are always readily available. Let us know if you need any help figuring out the best way to get there!

What should I wear?

Semi-formal attire is perfect! The wedding will be indoors, and June in New York means warm (but not too hot) weather, so dress comfortably in semi-formal attire.

Can I bring a plus one?

We’d love to celebrate with all of our favorite people! However, due to limited space, we kindly ask that only those listed on your invitation attend. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out!

What time should I arrive?

The evening kicks off at 5:30 PM with drinks and small bites, so feel free to arrive on time and get settled before dinner begins.

What time does the event end?

The night will wrap up around 10:00 PM, but no rush—enjoy the food, conversations, and celebration at your own pace!

Are you having a ceremony?

We’re not having a separate, formal ceremony. Instead, the ceremony and reception dinner will be combined into one evening, with meaningful moments—like a traditional tea ceremony—taking place during dinner. No aisle, no rows of chairs—just great food, time-honored traditions, and celebrating with the people we care about most!

What should I expect at the dinner?

Think of it as a big, delicious gathering with family and friends. We’ll be serving a traditional twelve-course Chinese banquet, with dishes symbolizing happiness, longevity, and prosperity. There will also be a tea ceremony where we honor our parents and elders. No formal speeches—just good food, great company, and a night to catch up and enjoy together!

I have dietary restrictions. Will there be options for me?

Of course! Let us know when you RSVP, and we’ll do our best to make sure there’s something delicious for you.

What’s the best way to get to Manhattan?

The LIRR Great Neck Station is just a short walk from our suggested hotels and gets you to Penn Station in about 30 minutes. If staying elsewhere, just let us know and we can provide direction! There are a hundred different ways to get there depending on where you are staying, so don't hesitate to ask!

If you have any other questions, feel free to reach out to us directly!
