By now, we have received a few questions about the wedding and invitations. We hope that this Q&A list may be helpful to you in planning your participation.
Question: Where is this taking place?
Question: Where is this taking place?
Answer: OK, if you got the invitation and managed to find our website, then you probably got that the ceremony, cocktail, and reception are all at the Westin but here goes....
Westin Georgetown
2350 M Street N.W
Washington, DC, 20037
Oh, we should mention that there are two Westin Hotels in downtown DC. Don't just mindlessly follow the GPS or you could end up at the other wedding. LOL!
Question: For out of town travelers, do you have a discounted room rate at the hotel?
Answer: Yes, our rate is $139 per night from June 8 through June 10, 2012.
Please call 1-800-WESTIN-1 and reference the Pham/Chu Wedding to reserve your room OR use this link: Pham/Chu Wedding.
Question: When should I get there?
Answer: Please plan to arrive around 5pm. And since we're running by American time, we really mean 5pm. Not 6:00pm. Not even 5:30. We mean business! If you come at 6, you're gonna miss our wedding. Yeah, you know who we're talkin to...
Question: When will this end?
Answer: Never! Just kidding. If you're old, just old at heart, or both (like Trang's dad), you'll want to go to bed early. The reception officially ends at 11pm, but dinner will probably end at 9pm.

Question: What should I wear?
Answer: This occasion is semi-formal, which is black tie. Our wedding party will be in gowns, cocktail dresses, and tuxedos. For guests, black tie is optional, so please feel free to wear a nice dress, pantsuit, or suit and tie. If you do already have a tuxedo, rock it!
Question: My RSVP card says "...reserved 2 seats..." but I am a family of 4 people. Can I bring extra guests?
Answer: We ask that you kindly respect the number of guests designated on your response card. Our ceremony and reception area are very intimate and small. Unfortunately, this means that we can only comfortably accommodate a certain number of guests. As much as we'd like to welcome more, the hotel will only seat those who were formally invited.
Question: What does "Adult Reception" mean?
Answer: Our wedding ceremony and related activities are planned for a set number of adults. For the enjoyment of all guests, we ask that you make alternative arrangements for your little ones. We recognize that some of you may be unable to leave your small children at home. In that case, please contact us and we will be happy to put you in touch with reputable babysitters in the Washington, DC area.
Question: What entrees are you serving? I see pictures, but that could mean anything!
Answer: We are serving beef, a cornish hen and striped bass combination, and a vegetarian entree. This is not 100% set in stone, as we have been attending to a number of other wedding planning activities. We will post an update on the menu as soon as we have finalized it. If you have seafood allergies and would prefer the cornish hen without fish, please let us know.
