We will have a bar for our guests at no cost to them. We will be serving beer and wine, plus two specialty cocktails picked by the bride and groom for everyone to enjoy all night! We will also have assorted sodas and juice available as non-alcoholic options. Please do NOT bring any outside alcohol, the venue does not allow this and are very strict on this rule.

Question
Where is your wedding registry?
Answer
We will be doing a honeymoon fund in lieu of a typical wedding registry. We live in a small apartment and have lived together for several years now, so we have accumulated many things to fill out our home in that time. We would greatly appreciate support in making a dream honeymoon come true that we wouldn't normally be able to do ourselves!
Question
How early can I arrive to the Venue?
Answer
Valet is available to guests starting at 5:30pm, which would be the earliest guests could start to arrive. Aim to arrive between 5:30pm and 6pm. **Please be advised that it is going to be rush hour traffic around the time you will likely be planning on commuting to the venue.**
Question
Can I smoke?
Answer
The upstairs patio is a designated smoking section. Please do not smoke anywhere else in the venue, as it will result in a hefty fine.
Question
Where should I stay?
Answer
There is not a particular place we wish for our guests to stay. There are many options of places to choose from near the venue, and throughout the city of Los Angeles! If you would like to stay close to the venue, we have listed some hotels that are walking distance to the venue under the "travel" tab. Commuting by rental car, Uber, Lyft, and Waymo are also viable options of transportation to the venue if you prefer to stay in another part of LA. For reference, we live in the San Fernando Valley, which can be about an hour north from downtown with traffic. If you have any questions or want some guidance on where to stay, feel free to reach out to us! (peter.lola.wedding@gmail.com)
