Can I take photos during the ceremony?
Answer
We’re having an unplugged ceremony, so we kindly ask you to keep phones and cameras put away during the ceremony so our amazing photographer can capture the moment. Once the ceremony is over, feel free to take as many pictures as you'd like and don't forget to share them with us!
Question
Can I bring a plus one?

In order to keep our wedding as intimate as possible, only the guests formally invited on your wedding invitation will be accommodated. If you received a plus one, they will appear when you RSVP.
Question
Can I bring my children?
Answer
While we love your little ones, our wedding is an adults-only celebration with the exception of some immediate family. Please see invitation. We hope you enjoy a night out!
Question
What should I wear?
Answer
Dress code is semi-formal — think suits and ties, and long or cocktail dresses. The venue has a few small hills, so we recommend flats, wedges, or other comfortable shoes. Both the ceremony and reception will be outdoors, so please plan accordingly. Our bridal party will be wearing dark brown and tan. As a courtesy to the bride, we kindly ask that you avoid wearing white or ivory. Thank you!

How do I get to the venue?
Answer
Serendipity Garden Weddings 12865 Oak Glen Rd, Oak Glen, CA 92399 From the Eastbound 10 freeway, exit on Cherry Valley Blvd., turn left (go over the freeway) Westbound go right. When you reach Beaumont Ave turn left. Beaumont Avenue will turn into Oak Glen Road and the road will begin to become a little curvy. Once you PASS Wildwood Canyon on your left you have exactly one more mile to go. Look for a yellow 40mph sign, the driveway is immediately after the sign on the right. Please pull in the gated driveway and park to the right.

Yes! We’ll be having a Money Dance during the reception. This fun tradition gives guests the chance to share a quick dance with the bride or groom while offering a small cash gift to help start our new life together. Participation is completely optional, but if you’d like to join in, we recommend bringing a few small bills so you’re ready for your turn on the dance floor!
