Question

What time should I arrive at the ceremony?

Answer

Our ceremony will start promptly at 3:30 p.m. Please plan to arrive at the venue at least 15 minutes beforehand; we also suggest leaving yourself enough time for parking, checking coats, using the stairs or elevator, and getting settled. Doors to the venue will open at 3:00 p.m.

Question

Is the ceremony or the reception outdoors?

Answer

Unless it rains, our ceremony will be held outdoors on the rooftop of The Pearl. Cocktail hour will take place on the rooftop and indoor mezzanine (immediately following the ceremony). Although there will be heat lamps on the rooftop and we'll head indoors around sunset, we suggest bringing a light wrap or layer with you for the outdoor events if you are worried about getting chilly. The reception will take place fully indoors in the main ballroom of The Pearl.

Question

Does the venue have an elevator?

Answer

The Pearl has one main staircase and one elevator to the rooftop and mezzanine. We kindly ask that you allow guests with special needs to have priority access to the elevator.

Question

Is there parking near the venue?

Answer

We strongly suggest that you take public transit or rideshare/taxis to the venue if possible, but if driving is more practical for you, there is a paid parking lot (Crane Cove Parking Lot) just a couple of blocks from The Pearl. Please see our Travel page for a link to the parking lot's Google Maps location. There are also many paid parking lots and facilities in the Mission Bay and Dogpatch neighborhoods. We recommend using SpotHero to find parking.

Question

Will either of you be changing your name?

Answer

We'll both be keeping our original names!
