FAQs
Question
What does "Cowboy Chic" mean?
Answer
We don't really care if you want to show up looking like a Rhinestone Cowgirl or an Old West oil man. But generally some ideas: suits, boots, cowboy hats, belt buckles, leather, turquoise jewelry, rhinestones, fringe, embroidered florals, prairie dresses, bolos, pearl snap shirts, and Western wear.
Question
Where can I grab some good grub around town?
Answer
Ojai Rotie, Hip Vegan, Farmer & the Cook, The Dutchess, Tres Hermanas, Pinyon, Ojai Tortilla House, The Nest.
Question
Can I bring my kids?
Answer
Even though we haven't met some of your kids and would love to, we want to make sure you'll be able to properly party with us for the weekend, so we prefer you leave the youngins at home for this campout. If not bringing your kids means you can't come, then we can work it out! We could even connect you with others who may need a babysitter share in Ojai.
Question
Can I bring my dog?
Answer
Yes. But we prefer that Totem is the only dog-of-honor at the actual wedding. Dogs are not allowed at the pool at OJAI RANCHO INN.
Question
Are you providing transportation to the wedding?
Answer
No transportation provided for Friday night festivities, but the Ojai Valley Brewery is within walking distance of most things downtown. For Saturday, we are providing shuttles that will be taking guests from the ceremony and cocktail hour at Ojai Rancho Inn to the reception and party 4 minutes up the road at Ojai Deer Lodge starting at 7pm. DO NOT attempt to drink and drive in Ojai... cops will pull you over.
Question
Is the wedding venue within walking distance from town?
Answer
No. We suggest you take the provided shuttle if you plan to drink.
Question
Do you have a registry?
Answer
Yes! See above funds on this page. Contributions are welcome but NOT required. We know weddings are expensive to attend.
Question
Are you sending a paper invitation in the mail?
Answer
Only to family. Sorry y'all!
