FAQs

Question

When should I RSVP by?

Answer

Please let us know if we can expect the joy of your presence by July 31st!

Question

Is there a dress code?

Answer

Yes! The dress code is semi-formal Victorian Gothic. While dressing to the theme is not necessary, we encourage you to have fun with it! Lean into moody colors (black or dark jewel tones) and materials like lace and velvet. Channel your inner vampire! If you choose to go all out, you will not be the only one. For inspiration, think Tim Burton's Sleepy Hollow, Bram Stoker's Dracula, and Crimson Peak. If not dressing to the theme, we request you wear at the minimum semi-formal attire. Cocktail and formal will also not be out of place!

Question

Is there parking for the ceremony or reception?

Answer

Yes! There are a number of onsite free parking spots at the venue, as well as ample street and garage parking in Downtown Tucson.

Question

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

Answer

Yes, please let us know when you RSVP that you require a food accommodation and what it is. Our caterer can modify for any allergies or restrictions. If you are vegetarian or vegan, we can offer a plant-based main dish.

Question

Are you changing your names?

Answer

For right now, neither of us is changing our name. Please continue to address to Kate Garrett and James Szasz.

Question

What will the weather be like?

Answer

November in Tucson can change rapidly based on the day! Generally, it will be in the 70s and sunny during the day, and cool off to the 50s at night. Please make sure that you bring a wrap or jacket for the evening, although we will have outside heaters if needed. For the welcome event, we recommend that you wear a hat and use sunscreen.

Question

Is there transportation to and from the hotels to the ceremony?

Answer

Yes, if you are staying downtown. Please reach out to us ahead of time and let us know where you are staying and that you will need a shuttle to the venue. If you are staying in a different neighborhood, please arrange your own transportation.

Question

Will there be any other events?

Answer

We are having an informal Welcome Barbecue all day and evening at our home the day before. Please let us know in your RSVP if you'll be joining us. We will do a casual brunch the morning after for anyone staying in town, let us know if you'd like to come.
