Question

Are you registered? Where?

Answer

We have a cash registry on this site. We are so grateful for our home and all of its furnishings. What we would love is help paying for our honeymoon! You can also buy some merch if you want to support us and look great doing so.

Question

Is there parking for the ceremony or reception?

Answer

There is limited parking at the Lodge and at the Hilton. The Lodge is valet only which can get expensive. If you are not staying on site (at the Hilton or at The Lodge at Torrey Pines) we highly recommend you uber or Lyft if you are not staying at the Hilton Torrey Pines or The Lodge at Torrey Pines. Plus the bar is open Friday night and Saturday night (for 7 hours!), who wants to drive anyway?!

Answer

Please arrive to the Lodge at Torrey Pines by 3:30pm on Saturday. The ceremony starts promptly at 4:00.

Question

Question

I have a food allergy, can I make a special request?

Answer

Absolutely!

Question

If I’m traveling in, should I rent a car?

Answer

Up to you, parking is hard to find in La Jolla/Torrey Pines and we recommend you Lyft/uber to and from the venue. So up to you if you want a car for the remainder of the weekend. 🚙

Question

Is the wedding indoors or outdoors?

Answer

The ceremony and dinner are outdoors. The reception will be indoors. If it rains, all will be indoors! But anticipate 72-80 degrees and sunny type weather (we hope!)

Question

What will the weather be like?

Answer

It should be sunny and moderately warm, probably low 70s Fahrenheit. It can get cold at night so bring a jacket if you are a cold person. Not like personality but if you get cold easily. 🥶

Answer

We are planning on having a welcome event at 8:00 pm on Friday, October 9th at the Hilton. Also, will be a pool party on Sunday, October 11th at The Lodge at Torrey Pines.
