FAQs

Please see a list of our Frequently Asked Questions below.
Question

When should I RSVP?

Answer

Invitations will be sent in June. Kindly RSVP by August 1st so we can plan accordingly. We hope to celebrate with you!

Question

What time should I arrive at the ceremony?

Answer

Please plan to arrive no later than 3:30pm, when doors open, to ensure you have enough time to be seated. The ceremony will begin promptly at 4pm.

Question

What is the dress code?

Answer

Our wedding will be a formal affair. Gentlemen are encouraged to wear a tuxedo or suit and tie, while ladies may opt for a gown or a midi-length cocktail dress. We cannot wait to celebrate with you in style!

Question

Are the ceremony and reception at the same location?

Answer

The entire wedding day will take place at a private venue called Villa De Fiore, centered lakeside in the heart of Monserate Winery. Watch for signage directing you to the Bowers wedding as there are multiple venues on-site.

Question

Is there parking onsite?

Answer

Our venue has free self parking available and overnight parking is allowed. Since there will be an open bar, we do encourage you to Uber/Lyft for a safe and responsible (& fun) night! Please consider scheduling your ride ahead of time, as they are limited in Fallbrook. Please also be aware that the roads leading to Monserate are winding. We have a limited number of Uber vouchers available to help offset the cost of your ride. To use one, enter the code RZDCFZUKRXB when booking through the Uber app. You can add the voucher under your payment methods. Please note, availability is limited—first come, first served!

Question

Are kids welcome?

Answer

We love your little ones, however this is an adults-only event with the exception of the children in the wedding party. We appreciate you for making arrangements ahead of time.

Question

Can I bring a guest?

Answer

Due to venue capacity, our guest list is strictly invite-only and limited to those formally listed on your invitation. If you received a plus one, they will appear under your name when you RSVP. Thank you for understanding!

Question

What does the welcome party entail?

Answer

We are kicking off our wedding weekend with a welcome event at Stone Brewing World Bistro & Gardens - Escondido (25 min away from Monserate), and while optional, we would love for you to join us if you're already in town! Feel free to stop by, grab a drink, and say hello to the soon-to-be bride and groom. There will be heavy apps and drinks to enjoy.

Question

I have dietary restrictions/allergies. What is the best way to let you know?

Answer

We want to ensure you enjoy your time and meal on our wedding day. When you RSVP, please let us know about your dietary needs.

Question

Will we be indoors or outdoors?

Answer

The ceremony and cocktail hour will be held outdoors in a garden setting, while the reception will be hosted indoors. In any case of inclement weather, the show will go on! We recommend bringing a light jacket or sweater regardless as it can get chilly at night.

Question

Can I take pictures during the ceremony?

Answer

Our ceremony will be unplugged. We are so excited that you'll be joining us, and we want you to relax and be fully present during. We have a wonderful photographer who will capture every moment, and we'll make sure to share those photos as soon as we can! With this in mind, we kindly ask our guests to stow all electronic devices on silent during the ceremony. But after? Please be our guest.

Question

Where can I find your registry?

Answer

Your presence is the greatest gift we could ask for! However, for those who would like some guidance, we've included a registry tab on our website.

Question

Where should I stay?

Answer

You can find hotel recommendations under the 'Travel' tab. There are also plenty of great Airbnb and Vrbo options throughout San Diego County.

Question

What is your wedding hashtag?
