The private ceremony and vows will be in San Francisco City Hall earlier in October. The city limits the number of guests to four people for the civil ceremony, so unfortunately we cannot invite additional people. We are excited to celebrate with you at one of the receptions!
Yes! If you have children we encourage both parents and kids to attend. Each reception will have space for kids to run around, a play area, or something similar.
Tentatively we are hoping to also plan an event in the Mid-West. We are inviting people primarily according to their geography combined with who else they know that will be at that reception. If you have moved or think your invite might have been sent for the wrong location, please reach out to Tanya or Jamie.
Please do not attend our wedding receptions if you are sick (even if you test negative for Covid and/or influenza)! We also ask that everyone attending be vaccinated and boosted against Covid. If you are not fully vaccinated/ boosted, please do NOT attend. Masks will be available for guests at all receptions.
For the Bay Area & San Diego, please wear "Park Formal" aka blazers and comfortable dresses. We recommend flat shoes as well. For Boston, please wear "Cocktail Attire" such as suits, dresses, etc. The dress code is also included on the schedule page for each location.
More than any gift or present, we would love to see you and your families in person after several years of pandemic and have a chance to catch up, laugh, and celebrate. If you also would like to give a present, we have set up a registry through this same site under the registry tab at the top of the page.
Given the nature of the wedding tour and selecting cities that are relatively near our family and friends, only a handful of guests are traveling long distances. Many hotels require a block of at least 10 rooms to hold. We are continuing to look into hotel blocks. In the meantime, if you are traveling from a bit further and would like to get started on your accommodation plans, please feel free to email Tanya or Jamie for suggestions. We'd also be happy to connect you with others who might need accommodation in order facilitate sharing Airbnbs, facilitate cheaper rates, etc.
We are planning to add more questions here over time. Additionally, please reach out if you have a question not listed above and if it is a question we get from multiple people we'll post it here for all.
