FAQs

Question

Can I bring a date? Are kids welcome?

Answer

We kindly ask that only those listed on the invitation join us. Please note, our event will be adults-only (21+) due to venue limitations. Thank you for understanding!

Question

What should I wear?

Answer

We’d love for our guests to dress in Semi-Formal attire. For men, suits with an optional (but encouraged) tie. For women, dresses or jumpsuits are perfect—floor length is not required. Both the ceremony and reception will be outdoors, so feel free to bring an extra layer or coat in case the nighttime temperature drops. We’d love everyone to bring a touch of style to the celebration! Currently, the daytime weather is projected to be high 70's or low 80’s during the day, and mid 50's at night.

Question

What time should I arrive at the ceremony?

Answer

Please arrive at 3:30pm for a prompt 4:00pm ceremony start. There is plenty of parking available for anyone driving to the venue, but we highly recommend taking a rideshare if you're planning to drink as the roads are dark and windy!

Question

What should we know about driving home from the venue?

Answer

Our venue is nestled in the rural community of Pala, CA. With this in mind, the roads nearby are dark and winding at night. Please rideshare or have a designated driver if you're planning to drink! We want everyone to have a great time and get home safely.
