FAQ

Can I bring a plus one?

While we would love to celebrate with your special person, our venue does have a capacity limitation which needs to be strictly adhered to. Let’s celebrate together on a seperate occasion!

Can I bring my children?

While we love your little ones, our wedding is going to be an almost adults-only event so that everyone can relax and enjoy the evening. We appreciate you making arrangements ahead of time and leaving the kids at home so you can celebrate with us.

What is the dress code?

We love a good dress up party so come looking sharp, but still comfy enough for a dance!
