FAQs

Question

What is the dress code?

Answer

We may be having a wedding near the ocean, but this is not a casual beach wedding. We ask that you come dressed to impress! Dress Code: Cocktail Men: Suit, Tie Optional, No Jeans Women: Cocktail Dresses or Dressy Separates Color is encouraged!

Question

What time should we arrive at the ceremony?

Answer

Please arrive between 3:00 - 3:15 pm.

Question

Is this an "unplugged" wedding?

Answer

Yes! We kindly ask that all phones and cameras remain out of sight during our wedding ceremony. Our amazing photographer and videographer are there to capture the special moments, and we can't wait to share those with you!

Question

Are kids welcome?

Answer

To allow all guests to fully relax and enjoy themselves, we have chosen to make our special day adults only. Thank you for understanding!

Question

Is there parking at the venue?

Answer

There is a city-owned parking lot directly next to the venue that requires paid parking until 10:00 pm. There are kiosks located in the parking lot that accept cash and credit card. You will need your parking space number in order to complete payment. However, in order to maximize your fun and to ensure you make it home safely, it is strongly encouraged you take a ride share such as Uber or Lyft.

Question

Will the wedding be indoors or outdoors?

Answer

The ceremony and reception will take place outdoors on a grass lawn; dancing will be held inside. Southern California weather can be a bit unpredictable in November, so please check the weather and bring a sweater if it is going to be chilly. In the event of rain, all events will be held inside.

Question

Where should we stay?

Answer

Please check our travel page for local accommodations, but we recommend renting a house in San Clemente or Dana Point!

Question

Will there be an open bar?

Answer

Of course...
