FAQs

Question

Is there a dress code?

Answer

We kindly request Formal attire. We'd love to see our guests in elegant gowns, cocktail dresses, or dark suits. The ceremony will be outdoor overlooking the San Diego Bay, and the reception indoors, so we suggest comfortable yet stylish shoes.

Question

Do I need to RSVP for my whole household?

Answer

Yes. Your invitation will show the number of seats reserved for your household. When you RSVP, please let us know the exact number of guests who will attend, even if it’s fewer than the seats reserved.

Question

Should I include children in my RSVP?

Answer

Yes, absolutely. If children are part of your invitation, please include them in your RSVP so we can reserve their seats and meals as well.

We plan and pay per person to make sure every guest has a seat, meal, and a wonderful experience. Providing an accurate RSVP ensures everything runs smoothly.
