FAQs

Question

When should I RSVP by?

Answer

Please let us know if you'll be attending by April 27th, 2023. We completely understand if you can't make it--just let us know either way as soon as you can. Thank you!

Question

Can I bring a date?

Answer

We're only able to include spouses or long term partners (listed on your invitation).

Question

Can I bring my children?

Answer

Yes, if they are included on your invitation. That said, we're not able to provide childcare, so please take that into account.

Question

Can I attend the reception, but not the ceremony?

Answer

Absolutely! We know a Catholic mass isn't for everyone. Please let us know when you RSVP which events you plan to attend.

Question

Is there a pre-booked hotel?

Answer

Nope, we're leaving it to guests to decide where they'd like to stay.

Question

Do I need to stay near the ceremony or reception venues?

Answer

No, but we do suggest finding somewhere to stay that's close enough you won't be stressing about travel, especially if you don't plan to rent a car. West LA, downtown, Pasadena, Glendale, Burbank, etc. are all good options.

Question

Do I need to stay in LA for the whole weekend? How early should I arrive?

Answer

We'd love to celebrate with you throughout the weekend, and this is part of why we chose Memorial Day weekend for our wedding. However, the main events will occur only on Saturday, May 27th.

Question

What's the dress code?

Answer

Semi-formal to formal . The reception will take place in a family friend's backyard, so take that into account when planning. Los Angeles is a desert, so be prepared for cool evenings, and you may want to avoid those stilettos...

Question

Is there parking for the ceremony or reception?

Answer

St. Bede's Church has a parking lot and street parking, and there is street parking at the reception. We recommend carpooling or ridesharing whenever possible, especially at the reception.

Question

Are you registered? Where?

Answer

Yes! We are registered on Zola. You can find the link on our wedding website under "Registry".
