FAQs

Question

Where is the ceremony and reception taking place?

Answer

The ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception are at the Bishop Museum of Science and Nature.

Question

Is there parking at the venue?

Answer

Due to city-wide events, street parking near the venue will be minimal. Our venue has a designated lot for our guests, and you will need a parking ticket to access it. Please leave early enough to allow adequate time to travel and park before the ceremony. Late entry to our ceremony will NOT be permitted.

Question

What time should I arrive to the venue?

Answer

Due to high traffic and bridge closures, early arrival at the venue is permitted starting at 3:30. We will have light refreshments and a chance to enjoy a special Museum Planetarium show as you wait for our ceremony and celebration. Please note that late entry to the ceremony will NOT be permitted!

Question

What should I wear?

Answer

We ask that everyone follow the Coastal Formal dress code: think elevated, breezy, polished. Our celebration will be entirely outdoors, so please keep this in mind. Weather note (it's Florida): Warm sunny days and evenings call for light, breathable fabrics. A light layer after sunset is a wise choice; remember to pick humidity-friendly options.

Question

What is the weather like?

Answer

Both our ceremony and reception will take place outdoors in a courtyard. Late April in Florida usually brings warm, sunny days with highs in the 80s and mild evenings in the 60s–70s.

Question

Can I bring a plus one?

Answer

Please take a look at your invitation for details. If your RSVP includes a plus one, we can’t wait to meet them! Guest counts are essential; please don't invite anyone not explicitly included on your RSVP.

Question

Are kids allowed?

Answer

Aleece and I love the little ones more than anyone, but we're keeping our celebration adults-only so everyone can relax and enjoy it. The only children attending will be our nieces and nephews. Thank you for understanding and celebrating with us!
