Do I get a plus 1?
We’re keeping our guest list intentionally small, so invitations are limited to those specifically named in yours. Thank you so much for understanding.
How do I get to your events? What are your transportation recommendations?
We’re in Mamdani New York! We recommend that you use Google maps to navigate the subways based on where you’re staying. NYC has reliable subway lines to each of our locations, public bus transportation as well as taxis, ubers and/or lyfts if you’d prefer transport via car.
Are kids allowed?
We’ve chosen to keep all wedding events adults-only to maintain the intimate atmosphere we envision.
What should I do if I have dietary restrictions?
Please notify us of any allergies or dietary restrictions via your RSVP form.
Will there be a wedding registry?
Rather than a traditional registry, Christina and Noelani are inviting guests to help bring their honeymoon dreams to life. You can contribute to their fund or gift an experience — check back in early February for the ‘Gift’ tab to get more details!
What will the weather be like?
Early October in New York City typically brings crisp, mild fall weather that’s comfortable for spending time outdoors.
Daytime temperatures are usually in the mid to upper 60s °F (approximately 16–21 °C), while evenings can cool down into the 50s °F (about 10–13 °C). The beginning of the month is generally milder than later October, and some days may feel surprisingly warm.
Weather conditions can vary, with a mix of sunny, partly cloudy, and occasionally overcast days. Light breezes are common and add to the fall feel.
There is a moderate chance of rain. Heavy storms are uncommon, but passing showers are possible, so bringing a light rain jacket and umbrella is a good idea.
Overall, the weather feels distinctly fall-like without being cold. We recommend dressing in layers, such as a light jacket or sweater over a long-sleeve shirt, to stay comfortable from cooler mornings to milder afternoons.
Travel & Accommodation
What airport should I fly into?
New York’s major airports include JFK, LaGuardia and Newark in NJ. Feel free to take your pick!
Where should I stay?
We recommend that you take a look at the tab titled ‘Where should I stay & Itinerary’ to get a better idea of the neighborhoods that we recommend you stay in based on all of our wedding event locations.
Do I need to rent a car?
You can if you would like to! Be aware of street parking violations - we also recommend, if you rent a car, you give yourself ample time to find parking before each event as you will need to find street parking since there will be no onsite parking available.
