What time should I arrive?
Please arrive at 4:00 PM to enjoy the pre-ceremony music & drinks and find your seats!
Where do I park?
The George offers on-site parking for hotel guests. If you are joining us just for the day, there is an adjacent parking lot and plenty of street parking available along historic Front Street.
How do we get around?
One of the best parts about downtown Georgetown is how walkable it is! Once you park at the hotel, almost everything in the historic district is within a 5–10 minute walk.
Is the venue handicapped accessible?
Yes! The George Hotel is fully ADA-compliant. It features accessible entrances and elevators to all floors!
Is the wedding indoors or outdoors?
We’ll be celebrating entirely outdoors! Our ceremony and cocktail hour are on the lawn, and the reception is under a beautiful tent. Since we’re right on the water, you can expect a nice coastal breeze in the evening.
What if it rains?
In the event of rain, the ceremony and cocktail hour will also be moved under the tent!
What if I missed the RSVP deadline?
To help us finalize plans and coordinate details with our venue, please submit your RSVP by August 31st. We want to make sure everyone has a seat and a meal, so timely responses are incredibly helpful!
Can I bring my children?
We love your children, but we have decided to make our special day an adults-only event. Thank you so much for your understanding as we plan our celebration!
Can I take photos?
Please avoid taking photos during the ceremony, and important traditional formalities during the reception, such as the first dance, parent dances, etc. We want our hired photographer to get the best shots without disruptions. However, you are encouraged to take as many photos as you’d like outside of these important moments! We will also have a group share photo app available at the reception, which we encourage all guests to participate in!
May I choose alternative lodging?
Yes, of course! You are welcome to book lodging of your choice; there are room blocks available at the Hampton Inn Georgetown! Please see the Travel tab for more information!
Does the hotel have a bar for a nightcap?
Yes! Eliza’s Waterfront Bar is right on the property and is a great spot to gather for a drink by the firepit before or after the main events.
What is there to do in Georgetown?
You’re in the heart of the historic district! We highly recommend a stroll down the Harborwalk, which is just steps from the hotel. You can also visit the Rice Museum or grab a coffee and browse the shops on Front Street.
Who should I contact if I have a question?
