FAQ
Answers to the questions we hear most.
Where should we stay?
We're holding room blocks at the Courtyard by Marriott (Inner Harbor) and Delta Hotels Baltimore North under the Frede-Groff Wedding. Reserve by August 31, 2026 at the Courtyard, or September 2, 2026 at the Delta, for the group rate. We've also listed two boutique hotels within walking distance that offer a local resident rate.
What is the schedule for the day?
The ceremony begins at 3:00 PM, with the reception, dinner, and dancing to follow at 4:00 PM. The full run of the day is on the Schedule page.
What should we wear?
Cocktail attire. The ceremony and reception are a short walk apart in Mount Vernon, so shoes you can manage a few blocks in are a good idea.
Where is the venue?
The ceremony is at St. Ignatius Church (740 N. Calvert St) and the reception is at the Maryland Center for History & Culture (610 Park Ave), both in Mount Vernon and a short walk apart. See the Schedule for maps and directions.
Where can we park?
We'd point you to Chesapeake Center Parking (601 N Calvert St) or Franklin Street Parking (15 W Franklin St), both a few blocks from the venues. The LAZ lot at the Walters Art Museum is closer, but you have to collect your keys by 7:00 PM, before the reception ends. Full details are on Travel & Stay.
How can we get there?
Baltimore/Washington International (BWI) is the nearest airport, about 20 minutes away, and Amtrak stops at Penn Station. The nearest Light RailLink stop is Mt. Vernon (Centre Street), and Lyft code LOVEGROVE is on us. Driving, parking, and transit details are all on Travel & Stay.
