Question
When and how to arrive?
Answer
Nevada Beach is a very popular area and parking tends to fill up before 10:00am.... Ugh! We realize arrivals before 10:00am may be difficult for guests who want to sleep in, but it is recommended. We will have a private and personalized shuttle available for those who do not wish to drive to and from the beach. The shuttle will also be able to take people who park in overflow areas near the state line once beach parking fills. See the FAQ just below this one for details on shuttle scheduling The shuttle will drop guests off at the parking lot entrance. There will be a short walk from the lot entrance to the pavilion. Arrivals between 9-11am will most likely have a longer walk, as there will be a line of cars in front of the lot entrance. Ride share options are also readily available for those who would like, but the same logistics apply. If you want to park your own car, parking in the Nevada Beach parking lot costs $10.00 and there is free parking near the entrance along the road, but this parking tends to fill-up by 10am. If you can't find parking in the designated Nevada Beach parking, then park at the Safeway near the beach. It has been cleared with Safeway that this is ok. However, prepared for about a mile-long walk to the beach from the Safeway! In the later morning we will have the shuttle going to and from the Safeway parking lot.

Question
Is there a ceremony?
Answer
No, we will already be married by the time of the party. We still want to celebrate with you though!
Question
What should I wear?
Answer
The party is at the beach! Please wear swimsuits, sandals, shorts, tank tops, and any other beach appropriate attire. Do not wear formal attire as this is not a wedding and will be out of place on the beach.
Question
Where should I stay?
Answer
We suggest staying somewhere in or around the city of South Lake Tahoe, near the state line. Zephyr Cove is also a great option as it's very close to Nevada Beach. We highly recommend to make reservations early, as this part of Lake Tahoe is extremely popular in the summer.
Question
Is there a registry and should I bring a gift?

Question
What should I bring?
Answer
We will provide many chairs for those flying in. If you are a local, please bring your own beach chair! Please bring towels, sunscreen, and an umbrella (if you want shade on the beach.) We encourage bringing your best swimsuit and floatie for the contest. We will have many different choices for alcohol, but if you have something you want specifically then please bring it! Please remember, no glass is allowed on the beach, but is allowed in the pavilion area.
Question
Are dogs allowed?
Answer
Dogs are not allowed at the Pavillion where the party will be held. There is a dog friendly beach at Nevada Beach, but it is a distance away from the pavillion. Try to book a dog friendly hotel and leave your dog there or plan for boarding options!
