There is little to NO cell service at the venue. We are happy to provide the wi-fi information for those who need to order a car. We would also recommend scheduling a ride in advance! Lastly, if folks who drive are willing to drive others to the bottom of the hill, there is a 7-Eleven at the base of the mountain where you should have no issues getting an Uber.

Question
Are my kids welcome at the wedding?
Answer
We welcome guests of all ages; there will be kid-friendly activities, including a petting zoo and outdoor games. That being said, we want our parental friends / family to be able to relax and enjoy themselves - for some of you, that may mean leaving the kiddos at home for a date night!
Question
What is the dress code?
Answer
Garden Attire: California, colorful, comfy, & classy! Think autumnal sunset colors & fun patterns. Note that we would discourage high heels as they may not fare well on the dirt terrain at the ranch. If your favorite outfit is a bit dressier or more casual, go for it!
Question
Is the wedding venue accessible?
Answer
Terrain: The terrain is relatively flat, with a dirt/mulch surface. The cocktail petting zoo is across a small bridge which may not be accessible. Accessible parking: if you need parking close to the venue entrance for accessibility reasons, let us know and we can reserve a spot for you.
Question
Will cell phones be permitted at the ceremony?
Answer
We invite you to be fully present with us at our ceremony. We will kindly ask that you turn off your phone and keep it in your bag or pocket. We look forward to sharing professional photographs when they are ready! You are welcome to bring them back out for the reception.
Question
Can I bring a +1 to the wedding?
Answer
We are so excited to be celebrating with you! All invitees will be included on your invitation, including any +1s (invitation will say & Guest). As such, if your invitation does not say “& guest”, we’d prefer if it were just you. Additional guests cannot be accommodate due to venue restrictions and guest count.
