FAQs

Question

When should I arrive on Orcas Island?

Answer

Please plan to arrive no later than Friday, June 25. Traveling to Orcas involves a flight or drive followed by a ferry, so arriving on the day of the wedding is not recommended. We would love for you to settle in, enjoy the island, and begin the celebration feeling relaxed.

Question

How do I get to Orcas Island?

Answer

Most guests will fly into Paine Field or Sea-Tac, drive to the Anacortes ferry terminal, and take the Washington State Ferry to Orcas Island. Kenmore Air also offers direct flights from Seattle to the island. Please visit our Travel page for detailed recommendations.

Question

Should I bring or rent a car?

Answer

We strongly recommend having access to a car if you plan to explore the island. Orcas is larger and more spread out than it may appear, and rideshare services like Uber and Lyft are not available. Local taxis and rental cars are available but should be reserved in advance.

Question

Where will the wedding take place?

Answer

The ceremony and reception will be held at a private home in Eastsound. The full address and arrival instructions will be shared in the coming months.

Question

Will the wedding be outdoors?

Answer

Yes. The ceremony, cocktail hour, and dinner are planned to take place outdoors on grass. We recommend choosing shoes that will be comfortable on a lawn and bringing a light layer for the evening.

Question

What will the weather be like?

Answer

Late June on Orcas is typically mild and beautiful, but Pacific Northwest weather can change throughout the day. We recommend bringing layers when packing.

Question

Are children invited?

Answer

Our wedding ceremony and reception will be adults-only. However, we completely understand that some guests may want to turn the trip into a longer family vacation, and children are more than welcome to join you on Orcas Island (we would love to see them!). We simply ask that you arrange childcare during the wedding celebration.

Question

Can I bring a plus-one?

Answer

Due to the intimate size of our celebration, we’re only able to accommodate the guests specifically named on each invitation.

Question

Will transportation be provided on the wedding day?

Answer

Parking at the venue will be very limited. One of the island’s local taxi services will be reserved and on call for our guests throughout the celebration. We’ll share more information about pickups, drop-offs, and day-of transportation closer to the wedding.

Question

What is the dress code?

Answer

Coming soon!

Question

When is the RSVP deadline?

Answer

Please RSVP by March 26th, 2027

Question

How early should I book my travel and accommodations?

Answer

As early as possible! June is a popular time to visit Orcas Island, and lodging, rental cars, and flights are limited. We recommend booking your accommodations first, followed by your flights or rental car. The summer ferry schedule and vehicle reservations will be released closer to the wedding, and we’ll share an update when it’s time to book your sailing.
