Question

Answer

We will have shuttles going to and from the Hotel Paradox (611 Ocean St, Santa Cruz, CA 95060) and St Peter & St Paul Orthodox Church (9980 Hwy 9, Ben Lomond, CA 95005) for both Welcome Drinks and the Wedding. A detailed shuttle schedule will be available as we get closer to the date! 🚨 Important Note on Parking 🚨 There is absolutely NO ONSITE PARKING available for guests. The venue strictly enforces this policy and they will turn away anyone attempting to park on the property. Please plan to ride the provided shuttles.

Question

Is there a Wedding dress code?

Answer

Our dress code is Semi-Formal, however, we encourage you to have fun with it! It will be an outdoor forrest wedding. Inspiration for the Gentlemen: A suit (tie is optional) or dress pants with a blazer/sports coat. Inspiration for the Ladies: We suggest a knee, midi, or floor length dress and recommend bringing a light jacket or shawl for the evening. As there is a short walk on a paved road from the ceremony to cocktail hour, we encourage wearing block heels, wedges, or dressy flats for comfort.

Question

Can I bring a date?

Answer

Unfortunately we are only able to accommodate those guests formally printed on your wedding invitation. If you received a plus one, it will be clear on your invite. Thank you for understanding!

Question

Are kids invited?

Answer

We have decided to keep our Welcome Drinks, Wedding and Reception an adults-only event. We encourage you to use this evening as a date night! For Beach Brunch on Sunday, all are welcome. Please bring your children and family members that came along to support you for the weekend.

Question

Will the wedding take place indoors or outdoors?

Answer

The ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception will all take place outdoors.
