We’d love to see you dressed in Garden Cocktail Attire for our special day! This means semi-formal yet festive attire to celebrate in style. Ladies, feel free to opt for cocktail dresses, jumpsuits, or elegant separates. Gentlemen, a suit, blazer, or even dress shirt with slacks is perfect for the occasion. Kindly note that jeans and casual attire aren’t quite the right fit for this celebration. The reception will take place on grass, so plan your footwear with this in mind. Evenings can get cool, so we recommend bringing a jacket or wrap to stay comfortable as we dance under the stars!
To ensure everyone is settled and ready for the celebration, please plan to arrive by 3:45 PM. This will allow ample time to park and walk to the reception site. The ceremony will start promptly at 4 PM, and we can’t wait to share this special moment with you!
There is parking available at the venue for your convenience. However, if you prefer, it’s just a quick Uber ride from San Luis Obispo, Avila Beach, Shell Beach, and Pismo Beach. We want everyone to have a fantastic time and get home safely, so please consider your transportation options!
We kindly ask that you join us in an unplugged ceremony. We’re excited to share this moment with you and want everyone fully present—no screens, just love and laughter! By putting phones and cameras away, you’ll help create an atmosphere of connection, free from distractions. Our photographers will capture it all, so please relax, enjoy, and be with us in the moment.
We’re so grateful to celebrate with each of you! As our seating is limited, we’re only able to accommodate plus-ones if they’re indicated on your invitation and confirmed when you RSVP. We appreciate your understanding and help in keeping our gathering intimate.
We’re excited to celebrate with our closest family and friends! As seating is limited, we can only accommodate children who are specifically included on your invitation. If your little ones are listed, we can’t wait to have them with us! Thank you for your understanding as we keep our gathering intimate.
We want everyone to enjoy the celebration, so if you have any dietary restrictions or special requests, please don’t hesitate to let us know! We’re here to accommodate your needs and ensure you have a wonderful experience. Feel free to reach out via email at paynes1102@gmail.com.
If you have any questions leading up to the big day, feel free to email us at paynes1102@gmail.com. Please note that we may not be checking emails over the wedding weekend, but if you need assistance, you can reach out to a family member or a member of the wedding party for help.
