Black-tie optional. We ask that you either wear a tuxedo or a dark suit and tie or wear an evening gown, midi, or knee-length cocktail dress. It’s a day to celebrate, why not look your best too? 😉 In terms of foot ware, the ceremony takes place on turf and the reception is in-door so we recommend nothing too high or pointy as to avoid a muddy stiletto.
To give parents a night off and all our guests the opportunity to celebrate without having to worry about little eyes and ears, we politely request no children.
February in Arizona is the best time of year. It should be sunny and in the 70s during the day and will cool off in the evening so we recommend bringing light layers for the evening. If for some reason we are unfortunate with a February wave of heat, we will have means for cooling down.
The venue is on the east side of the valley so we recommend staying in Mesa, Chandler, Gilbert, or Apache Junction. Due to it being Valentine’s Day weekend, hotel prices are a bit on the higher side so I would consider Air BnB & VRBO for lower costs. We have a block of rooms at Home2 Suites Mesa Longbow.

The venue has a spacious lot for cars if you choose to drive but we recommend taking an Uber or Lyft so you can party it up with your favorite newlyweds!
You can contact either of the brides directly via text but please be courteous on the wedding day as we will be very busy getting ready. Jodie: 714-889-8399 Daniele: 303-260-9551
We will be starting promptly at 4 o’clock so we recommend arriving before or around 3:30 so you can enjoy a beverage and find your seat.
Both events take place at the same property, The Paseo, in Apache Junction, AZ.
Your presence at our wedding is the greatest gift of all, but if you insist on giving a gift, we would appreciate contributions towards our honeymoon fund as we will be traveling Italy this summer as newlyweds.
Yes! We have 10 rooms blocked at Residence Inn Phoenix Mesa East. Let them know you are in town for the Johnson wedding and they will give you a discounted rate ($250/night)!
