Day Two
Wedding
Celebration
The main event — a wedding ceremony in the formal gardens of Oheka Castle, followed by a cocktail hour, a long-table dinner reception, and an after party that runs until midnight. Marble, candlelight, gardens, and the people we love most under one roof.

Dress Code
Black Tie Optional
Black tie optional. For gentlemen, that means a tuxedo or a formal dark suit. For ladies, floor-length gowns or elevated cocktail dresses. We are leaning into a romantic, editorial palette — feel free to play with the colors below.
Suggested palette
Kindly avoid white or ivory tones
Getting There
Oheka Castle sits 45–60 minutes from JFK and about 25 minutes from the de Seversky Mansion. We will provide complimentary shuttles from a small list of partner hotels — details to follow on the home page closer to the date.
Parking
Complimentary self-parking and valet are both available on the property. Follow signs to the main gate.
Weather Note
Spring evenings on Long Island can drop into the low 50s once the sun sets. We recommend a wrap, shawl, or light overcoat for the outdoor ceremony and any time spent in the gardens.
Dancing, candlelight, and a castle full of love.
