FAQs

We've got answers to your questions! If you have any additional questions, please let us know.
Question

When should I RSVP by?

Answer

Please RSVP by January 4th.

Question

Can I bring a date?

Answer

Yes! Just let us know when you RSVP who will be joining you.

Question

What should I wear?

Answer

Semi-Formal, High-Desert Attire: Look sharp however you please. Layers encouraged for a warm day and chilly night, pointy heels discouraged for mobility on sandy grounds.

Question

What will the weather be like?

Answer

March in the desert is beautiful, but can be unpredictable! Temperatures and wind conditions vary so we recommend bringing layers. It's a good idea to check the weather in Joshua Tree closer to the date.

Question

How do I get to the venue?

Answer

We recommend finding a place to stay close by. All of the Air BNB's we listed on our travel section are under 15 minutes to Sacred Sands! Having a car or carpooling is ideal, as Lyft/Uber can be less reliable in the desert.

Question

Where do I park?

Answer

Please park at Sacred Sands. There will be a parking attendant to show you the way. In an effort to encourage sober driving, guests are allowed to leave their car at the venue until 1 pm the next day.

Question

When does the wedding start and end?

Answer

Guests can start arriving at 3 pm. The ceremony will begin at 3:30 pm. This will be followed by cocktails, food, and dancing! The reception ends at 10 pm, and our venue requires guests to leave by 10:30 pm.

Question

Will we be indoors or outdoors?

Answer

The ceremony, cocktail hour, and dining will take place outdoors. After we eat, we will move the party indoors, and we'd love for you to join us on the dance floor with DJ Bobby May spinning vinyl! The bar will also move inside after dinner. To be respectful of our desert neighbors, please help us keep all the doors closed during this time when going in and out.

Question

What kind of food will there be?

Answer

We'll have a taco bar from La Caguama Go Grande with Veggie, Chicken, and Carne Asada tacos. We're talking fresh tortillas, rice and beans, elote, potato taquitos, chips, and a full salsa bar. Each person will get 3-5 tacos and sides! If you have a food restriction and need to make a special request, please let us know in advance.

Question

Will there be an open bar?

Answer

Yes! Lifted Spiritz will be serving up our signature cocktails! There will also be beer, wine, soda, and aguas frescas.

Question

Will there be a Photo Booth?

Answer

Each guest is welcome to get their aura captured on film! Soul Glow Aura uses a specialized camera to generate your aura in an image. You’ll place your hands on the energy sensor plates that are connected to the camera and get an interpretation of the colors that appear, their placement, and their meanings. We’ll also have disposable cameras at each table and encourage our guests to take lots of photos!

Question

Can you tell us more about the venue?

Answer

Sacred Sands is located one mile from the West Entrance of Joshua Tree National Park. Seen from the 5-acre property are desert flora and fauna, joshua trees, boulder formations and great mountain views. Outdoors, there is a ceremony circle, cocktail hour patio and bar, dining reception area, lounging areas, and a fire pit. Indoors, the dance floor is ready with concrete floors and an indoor bar. You may see jack rabbits, quail, and maybe even a bobcat or coyote while soaking in the pristine views of the Morongo Basin. Due to the abundance of wildlife and to protect the delicate ecosystem, please do not wander into non-landscaped areas of the property.

Question

Will there be a welcome party?

Answer

Yes! We're having a karaoke welcome party at Más o Menos from 6 pm - 9 pm on Friday, March 21st. Come through!

Question

Who is the cartoonist that illustrated your wedding invite?

Answer

Ron Regé Jr.!
