FAQs

Question

So, uh... COVID?

Answer

We fully intend to enjoy our wedding as safely as possible. We respect your safety - as well as your personal choice - and must prioritize the health of our immunocompromised guests; we look forward to celebrating with our fully vaccinated friends and family. As of May 4, the city of Oakland is no longer requiring proof of vaccination or masks for museums. They are still encouraging masks for all visitors. We will still be administering rapid tests starting at 5pm. As things evolve, we will update our site accordingly.

Question

What time should I arrive?

Answer

We will be administering rapid tests outside prior to the ceremony, which require 30 minutes for results. Please arrive by 5pm.

Question

Can I bring a date?

Answer

We’re honored to celebrate with you, and your invitation will state whether or not we were able to accommodate another guest with you.

Question

Dress Code?

Answer

Cocktail casual - please dress up in whatever makes you feel fancy, classy, and chic! We will be inside, but do expect cool weather when you’re leaving.

Question

Where should guests park? Is parking free?

Answer

There’s a free lot and garage right by the entrance. Please do not leave your vehicle overnight - if you're planning to imbibe, use a taxi, Lyft, or Uber. Don't drink and drive!

Question

Okay, but what are we eating?

Answer

We’ve got hors d'oeuvres! We’ve got a scrumptious buffet! We’ve got some liquid courage for the dance floor, and some sugar to help you keep your energy up! Dietary restrictions: Vegan? There's something for you. Gluten-free? Yup, we’ve got you, too.

Question

Can I post pictures on _______?

Answer

We ask that you do not take any photos/video of the ceremony (please unplug and enjoy the show!), and do not post any photos or video of Amari outside of the album we share after the wedding. After the ceremony, snap away and post wherever you like!

Question

Cell phone service?

Answer

Be aware that service in and around the venue is extremely limited. Please turn your device off before the ceremony.
