FAQs

The Wedding Website of Dani Schmitt and Jeff Derenthal
Please see below for some basic questions we're expecting...but you can always hit us up if there's something on your mind!!
Question

Is there a ceremony?

Answer

Nope! We’re having a private ceremony with our immediate families at a separate time (sorry). This celebration won't have any vows but plenty of games, music, drinks, and good company

Question

Will there be food?

Answer

Yes! We’ll have a taco bar from Pecado Bueno

Question

Where should I stay?

Answer

Ballard is the closest neighborhood to the venue, and it's probably easier to find an AirBnB rather than a hotel. Other neighborhoods nearby include Greenwood, Phinney Ridge, Fremont, Wallingford, and Crown Hill. If you want to stay near us, we live in Columbia City, but keep in mind it's about 25-30 minute drive to the venue, and parking might be a pain (Ubers are plentiful, though).

Question

Is there parking at the venue?

Answer

There are parking lots at Golden Gardens, but keep in mind that it is a public park that gets pretty busy during the summer, and we won't have designated parking spots. If you're planning on going to the after-party, you would have to move your car from the Golden Gardens parking lot because the park closes at sundown. It would most likely be easiest to Uber/Lyft to the venue & the afterparty.
