Frequently asked questions

  • Is there a dress code?
    We'd love to see our family and friends dress up with us! We are requesting cocktail attire / semi formal for our wedding. Men: ties are optional. Ladies, this goes without saying but please avoid colors typically reserved for the bride - white, cream, ivory etc.
  • Are you having an unplugged ceremony?
    Yes! We are asking that guests turn off their phones for our ceremony. We will make sure our photographers get all the pictures we need :) During the reception please snap all the photos your camera roll can take!
  • How do I choose my meal / communicate my dietary restrictions?
    Watermark has a unique, non-traditional ‘de-constructed’ approach to weddings. Food is primarily passed - avoiding the formal seated dinner and buffet line – allowing guests to continually mingle, drink, eat, dance and keep the celebration going. The food service will be as follows: Buffet: Pick-up items are on a central buffet station and are continuously replenished during the first two hours of the party. Appetizers: Hearty offerings passed during cocktail Hour (First 90 Minutes) Mini Meals: Gourmet entrees passed in small bowls (Served in Hour 3) So no need to pick your meal in advance! However, if you have any serious allergies please let us know in your RSVP.
  • I'm flying in, do I need to rent a car?
    No - Asbury Park is roughly a 1 hr Uber from Newark Liberty Int'l Airport. Parking can be difficult to find/ expensive in Asbury, and all of our venues are within walking distance or a short uber away from our recommended accommodation.
  • Is any part of the ceremony or reception taking place outside?
    Hopefully! Watermark is an indoor/outdoor space. If the weather cooperates, the outdoor balcony will be accessible during the reception. If it rains, the whole celebration will take place inside.
  • Are children invited?
    We love your little ones, but our wedding venue is a nightclub - so this is an adults only event!
  • Can I bring a plus one?
    Unfortunately, we have a strict guest list to stay on budget. Your save the date and invitation will indicate how many seats have been saved for your party - if you have any questions about this, please reach out!
  • Do you have a hotel block for guests? Where do you recommend I stay?
    There are so many great places to stay in and around Asbury that we couldn't pick just one! Check out our Travel & Stay page for some of our recommendations. For guests traveling from out of state, we strongly encourage booking accommodation early - prices will go up as the date draws closer. Our wedding date is the last weekend of "off" season in Asbury, so currently accommodation availability and pricing reflect that.
  • I still have questions! How do I reach you?
    Don't hesitate to text, call, or email. We will continue to update this website as more details are "set in stone".
