As much as we'd love to invite everyone to our wedding reception, we're keeping it intimate with immediate family only. However, we would love to have everyone join us in praying the crowning ceremony at
Our Lady of Zaitoun Coptic Orthodox Church,
Staten Island, NY
How/When can I RSVP?
You can RSVP through our website; Please RSVP no later than September 30,2024 so we have an accurate count :)
What time does the ceremony start?
The Ceremony starts at 1:30pm at Our Lady of Zaitoun Coptic Orthodox Church, Staten Island, NY.
Please allow yourselves enough time to be in your seats and ready to be apart of our Love Story.
Can I bring a plus one?
Unfortunately, we have a strict guest list. Our celebration is strictly RSVP only. We will only be able to accommodate those listed on your wedding invitation. '
However, everyone is welcome to our crowning ceremony at church!
I am flying to NY but there are several airports, which should I pick?
For our friends and family travelling from Canada, we recommend Newark Airport as it is fairly close to Staten Island (~20 minutes). If you are travelling on Air Canada- they offer direct flights from Calgary to Newark
If you choose to fly on WestJet, they also offer direct flights from Calgary to JFK which is about 30-45 minutes to Staten Island.
We would not recommend LaGuardia Airport as it can take up to 90 minutes to get to Staten Island if you get stuck in New York's traffic
Are kids welcome?
Children are welcome to the ceremony! However, we regretfully cannot accommodate them at the venue due to limited seating. We hope you are able to join us anyway and enjoy a relaxed evening with friends and family!
CAN I TAKE PICTURES/VIDEOS DURING THE CEREMONY?
We have hired extremely talented professional photographers and videographers to capture this special moment in our life. We kindly ask that you respect our wishes of absolutely no cell phone use during our unplugged ceremony. You will have many opportunities to take photos and videos once the ceremony concludes
What's the "wedding hashtag"? How can we share photos with you?
Our Wedding Hashtag is #DavidfindshisSanderella
Do you have a Wedding Registry?
As love is what the night is all about, your presence is one we can’t celebrate without. But should you still believe that a gift is worth giving, a monetary gift for our new home is a delightful blessing.
Thank you 🥰
WILL THE CEREMONY AND RECEPTION BE INDOORS OR OUTDOORS?
