FAQs

Question

When should I RSVP by?

Answer

Please RSVP by Sunday, June 1st, 2025.

Question

Are kids welcome?

Answer

Yes - well-mannered kiddos are welcome. We encourage you to make the evening special; whether that involves bringing your family to make memories together OR embracing a date night without your little ones. We simply ask that you are mindful and help keep up the good vibes!

Question

Is there a dress code?

Answer

Yes! Think "Garden Party"! Don't know what that means or looks like? Here's a Pinterest board to get the wheels turning - https://pin.it/4TwMNlQ7N What is "Garden Party" attire? Garden party attire is semi-formal and combines a relaxed, outdoor feel with elements of formal attire. It's a blend of elegance and comfort, where you should look polished but also comfortable!

Question

Is there parking at the reception?

Answer

You betcha! The University of Puget Sound, particularly over summer months, has ample campus parking. The most convenient parking lot in relation to our reception venue, Upper Marshall Hall, will be P1 Parking (link to location - https://map.concept3d.com/?id=1003#!m/168911?share).

Question

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

Answer

There is not. That being said, the University of Puget Sound is just 3 miles from Downtown Tacoma. Ridesharing (Lyft/Uber), public transportation or driving yourself are all very viable options. Be safe and smart!

Question

Will any parts of the reception be held outdoors?

Answer

No formal programming or events will be held outside. We do encourage guests to step outdoors to explore the University of Puget Sound's grounds - it is a beautiful campus, particularly with summer blooms!

Question

You eloped?! Who, when, where and why?

Answer

Yes, we did! Who: We held a very intimate wedding ceremony surrounded by our immediate family (Grace and Ryan's grandmothers, parents, and brothers). When & Where: Along the snaking Edison Slough and farmlands of the Skagit Valley, we will hold our wedding ceremony at the Edison Schoolhouse on Saturday, July 12, 2025. Just 12 miles from Grace's childhood home, the little town of Edison holds deep meaning. Why: Weddings are beautiful celebrations packed with many intimate moments. To remain focused on the details that mattered most to us (connection and being present), we decided eloping was the best setting to celebrate our ceremony. We can't wait to celebrate this new and exciting chapter with you at our reception!
