FAQs

Question

What time should I arrive for the ceremony and reception?

Answer

The ceremony begins at 6:00pm, so we ask that you arrive between 5:15-5:45pm to ensure a prompt start to the evening.

Question

What kind of weather should I plan for?

Answer

June in San Diego can be warm, but is not typically very hot. “June Gloom” can present cooler temperatures especially in the evenings, so consider bringing an added layer for warmth.

Question

Is the event indoor or outdoor?

Answer

The ceremony and cocktail hour will take place outside, but the remainder of the evening will be indoors with a large patio available for fresh air throughout the evening.

Question

What is the dress code?

Answer

The dress code is California Formal. While we’d love the formality of the event to be reflected, we also encourage you to have fun with colors, patterns, and most of all to be comfortable. If a recommendation would be helpful, please see below. Men - We recommend a suit that you will be comfortable in both warm and cooler weather. Ties are optional, sport coats and blazers are acceptable. Women - We recommend knee to floor length formal summer dresses or jumpsuits. You may also want to bring a wrap or sweater, as the coastal breeze can bring a chill!

Question

Will there be a cocktail hour?

Answer

Yes! There will be a cocktail hour immediately after the ceremony. In addition to beverages, there will be light hors d'oeuvres served.

Question

Will dinner be provided?

Answer

Yes, a plated dinner will be served following the cocktail hour. Beverages will also be included.

Question

Are there hotel accommodations nearby?

Answer

There are two great resorts right across the street from The Crossings which you can find on the "Travel" tab of this website. There are also plenty of hotel or AirBnB/VRBO options nearby in the Carlsbad Village or surrounding areas. We recommend that you book sooner than later, as Carlsbad is a popular destination in the summer months.

Question

Will transportation be provided?

Answer

Transportation will not be provided, so please plan accordingly whether that is driving yourself or using ridesharing apps.

Question

Can I bring a plus one?

Answer

Please refer to your invite as it will denote whether you have a plus one.

Question

Are kids allowed?

Answer

While we truly love your little ones, we kindly ask that they stay at home for the evening.

For all the days along the way
