FAQs

Question

What will the weather be like?

Answer

It’s a dry heat! May 3 in Phoenix should be 70s-80s and sunny (knock on wood). Pack clothes for the warm weather and expect that when the sun goes down it will cool down quite a bit. We will provide umbrellas and handheld paper fans to cool off as needed during the ceremony. We recommend bringing layers to add on in case it cools down after the sun sets. Our entire wedding including ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception will be outdoors.

Question

What is the dress code?

Answer

The dress code for our event is semi-formal garden party. Think long, pastel or floral dresses for the ladies and light colored suits for the gents. Guest dress inspiration pictures are posted under the “guest dress inspiration” headline on the website for your reference. Our entire wedding including the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception are outdoors. We recommend bringing layers in case it gets cold after sunset and considering the outdoor terrain when deciding on footwear for the event. We will be providing heel caps for guests if needed.

Question

What time should I arrive at the ceremony?

Answer

The ceremony is scheduled to start at 4:30. You should plan to arrive by 4:00. There will be live music and we will be serving waters, juices, and sodas upon arrival.

Question

When should I RSVP by?

We have gluten free, vegan, and vegetarian options available, but only if you let us know ahead of time when you RSVP on the website.

Question

I have a food allergy, can I make a special request?

Answer

Please let us know if you have any food allergies or special requests including gluten free, vegan, or vegetarian substitutions when you RSVP on our website. We are happy to provide any diet modifications as requested, but will only be able to do so if noted ahead of time. It will be too late to make modifications if only noted on the day of the wedding.

While we love kids, we want our special day to be low maintenance and relaxing for all, without the pressure of managing the kiddos. If you are in need of child watching services please don’t hesitate to reach out and we can help you to find nearby services.
