FAQs
Question
Are kids welcome?
Answer
While we love your little ones, we are encouraging an adult celebration due to the garden setting. We appreciate you making arrangements ahead of time and leaving the kids at home or with a sitter so you can celebrate with us. Please visit Care.com if you need assistance with babysitting resources in San Diego.
Question
Parking: Where can I park?
Answer
We strongly encourage everyone to use rideshare services such as Uber or Lyft. Because our wedding is in Balboa Park during the July 4th holiday, we expect there to be very little parking available in the park. If you must drive yourself to the park, please plan some extra time to find parking as parking near the lower garden may be full. You may have a better chance of finding parking at the lot behind the old Hall of Champions, or even across the street by the Veterans Museum at 2115 Park Blvd, San Diego, CA 92101.
