FAQs

Question

By when should I RSVP?

Please RSVP no later than Sept 1st, but why wait!? As soon as you know your travel plans, click that nifty tab above and let us know if and when you'll be joining in on all the festivities!

Question

Are you registered? Where?

Answer

Your presence in California is more than enough of a gift! However, if you would like to contribute something more to the start of our new life as a married couple, there is a registry tab listed above.

Question

What time should I arrive at the ceremony?

Answer

The ceremony will begin promptly at 4:30pm! The drive from Carmel-by-the-Sea/Monterey/Salinas to the ceremony site at San Dollar Beach is a solid 1.5 to 2 hour drive with countless breathtaking views of Big Sur along the way. People come from all over the world to wind down these roads, so don't rush it. We firmly believe this drive will end up being one of the highlights of your trip, and we highly encourage you to leave enough time to enjoy the journey while still arriving in plenty of time for the 4:30pm ceremony start! **Transportation will be available for group caravan so that many of you can enjoy this trek down the coast together! Shuttle vans will be leaving from the Villa/Reception site at 2:30pm. Once all RSVP's have been received, we'll be in touch to confirm if you'd like to arrange a ride!

Question

Is there a dress code?

Answer

The attire for the wedding itself will be dressy cocktail, but not formal. The highs for the area in October are typically in the mid 60's-70s, but winds can make the evenings feel cooler. Dress to impress, but also be sure to stay warm!

Question

Can I bring a date?

Answer

In hopes of having an intimate destination wedding, we ask you discuss any uninvited plus ones with us before hand!

Question

Do you have any hotel recommendations?

Answer

Absolutely! See the Travel Tab above for all our accommodation recommendations.

Question

Is there parking for the ceremony or reception?

Answer

There will be parking at both the ceremony and reception venues. Ceremony parking will be in the Sand Dollar Beach lot near the camp grounds, and parking is available on site at the Villa for the reception, but carpooling is certainly encouraged for both! Group transportation will be available for those interested in carpooling together to and from the ceremony from the reception site.

Question

Are there any other events that I should know about around the wedding?

So many! Please see the schedule tab above for all the details, and let us know what you'll be attending with your RSVP!
