FAQs

Question

What time should I arrive to the ceremony?

Answer

Our ceremony will begin promptly at 3:00 PM at the Carmel Mission Basilica. We kindly ask that guests arrive by 2:45 PM to allow time for seating before we begin.

Question

What is the dress code?

Answer

Feel free to dress up — tuxes and gowns are welcome, but not required. The ceremony and reception will be held mostly indoors, with cocktail hour outdoors, so plan for a light jacket or wrap if the evening gets cool.

Question

How do I get to the wedding venue? Will transportation be provided?

Answer

The ceremony will take place at Carmel Mission Basilica and the Reception at Tehama Golf Club. To make things easy, we’re providing shuttle transportation to and from the venues, which we strongly recommend using. Shuttle Pick-Up Schedule: • 2:15 PM – Carmel Plaza (Junipero & Ocean Ave) • 2:30 PM – Coachman’s Inn and Carmel Mission Inn After the ceremony, shuttles will transport guests to Tehama, where the reception will be held. Shuttles will run throughout the evening for early departures and will return to Coachman’s Inn, Carmel Mission Inn, and the Carmel Plaza until the final shuttle at 11:00 PM.

Question

Is there parking available at the wedding venue?

Answer

Yes, there is valet parking available at Tehama if you choose to drive. However, we highly encourage guests to use the provided shuttles.

Question

Can I take photos or videos during the ceremony?

Answer

We kindly ask that all phones and cameras be put away during the ceremony. We’re having an unplugged ceremony so everyone can be fully present with us in the moment. Don’t worry — we’ll have professional photographers capturing everything, and we can’t wait to share those memories with you!

Question

Can I bring my kids?

Answer

As much as we adore your little ones, this will be an adults-only celebration. We hope you can use this evening as a chance to relax and enjoy a night out with us!
