We are so lucky that we have been able to build a home together the last three year; in these three years, we have accumulated everything we could ever need for a home! With that being said, we are doing a cash only registry. While we know this is untraditonal and people love giving gifts, we cherish cards and sweet notes from our friends and families. If you would like to give us a gift, our newlywed fund is on the 'Registry' tab. It is connected to our Venmo account, using the Venmo account with provide us with direct access to your gift without any fees from the website. If you do not have a Venmo, please feel free to bring cash or a check written out to 'Derek Hacker' to the wedding. We are so grateful in advance for your gift to our new life as husband and wife!
We highly advise everyone to uber from their hotel. If you do plan on driving, please be aware that the parking in the structure of the Marriott is $12/hr with a limit of $40-$80 depending on what events are happening that day. We will be having an open bar and we want everyone to party hard; so we highly suggest getting a hotel for the night to make the most of the night celebrating us!
The ceremony and reception will be a mix of both indoors and outdoors!
June can be hot but we are by the bay so it can also be a little gloomy and cool. We would suggest bringing a jacket just in case.
Please be seated by 4:45. The ceremony is scheduled to start at 5:00 pm.
We will be having an unplugged ceremony. But during the reception, we encourage guests to post pictures on to their social media channels, our only request is that you tag each photo with our wedding hashtag #dnkgotothealtar so we can keep track of all of your pictures!
