Q + A

Are my children invited to the wedding?

With respect, while we love your little ones, we have decided for all of our wedding activities to be adult only occasions, with the exception of our flower girl who will be 4 weeks old by the time of our wedding, and will be leaving immediately following the ceremony. We hope that this advance notice allows you to celebrate with us.

Why are you getting married on a Tuesday?

Any day is a great day to celebrate love! We hope that giving our guests two years notice will allow them to make the accommodations necessary to celebrate with us.

Is there a dress code?

We want you to look and feel your best on our big day! We are requesting Black Tie Attire for our wedding. Park Chateau will not admit any guests wearing jeans or sneakers. Ladies, please refrain from wearing colors that are reserved for the bride such as white, cream, or ivory.

Can I take pictures/videos during the ceremony?

We have hired extremely talented professional photographers & videographers to capture this special moment in our life. We kindly ask that you respect our wishes of absolutely no cell phone use during the ceremony. You will have many opportunities to take photos & videos immediately following the ceremony.

Can I bring a guest?

Unless your invitation (not your save the date) specifically states your name along with your partner/significant others name, or the word " & Guest" then you are not permitted to bring anyone else to our wedding.

Will there be an open bar?

Of course! The drinks are on us, the hangover is on you! Please drink responsibly.

Is there parking?

Park Chateau offers complimentary valet parking to all of our guests

Is there transportation from the hotel to the venue?

The Chateau Grande Hotel and Park Chateau are conveniently located steps away from each other on the same property, so there will not be any need for transportation to and from the hotel to the venue. If you choose to stay at a different hotel, please ensure you have transportation to and from the venue.

Will there be an after party?

Absolutely! The after party will be held at Park Chateau immediately following the reception. Please join the bride and groom for drinks, lots of dancing, & an assortment of classic New Jersey Boardwalk late night bites.

What time is check in at the hotel?

Check in is at 4pm at the Chateau Grande Hotel. Please keep in mind that you will not be able to check into your room until 4pm, so if you are traveling from far and need to get dressed & ready for the wedding in your hotel room, you will only have 1 hour to do so. If you feel that is enough time, great! If not, we advise that you either get dressed & ready (for the most part) prior to arriving to the hotel to give yourselves a head start, or, if your schedule allows, check in on Monday July 7th! If you have any questions, just ask Melanie - she usually has an answer for everything

When do I need to RSVP by?

Please respond no later than June 3rd 2025. We will send out a reminder text out on June 3rd to all those who did not respond yet!

When do I need to book my hotel room(s) by?

Please book your hotel room(s) as soon as possible in order to receive our discounted rates. The last day to book your hotel room(s) is June 3rd. After June 3rd, we cannot guarantee that there will be rooms available for you to book at The Chateau Grande Hotel.
