Yes! Most of our friends are either service industry or musicians. This is a much easier night for us to be off work. We also aimed for the likely spring break for families with kids and all of our teacher friends.

Let us know! The ceremony, dinner, and reception are all at the same outdoor location. If bad weather is anticipated, we will get tents. There are not any stairs to navigate in the outdoor space.

Hell yeah, friend. You'll be in good company at this celebration. Lots of sober guests or folks in recovery are invited, and each of these venues offers sodas or lemonades and some even have NA beer options or mocktails! (Harm reduction supplies will be on hand for those on a different journey. Please be safe!)
This is a question we often get from people who haven't spent time here. The city may have a reputation for being dangerous, but it is absolutely safe for visitors as long as you are smart and respectful. That means stay aware of your surroundings, don't leave valuables in your car, don't wander off in unfamiliar neighborhoods alone at night, don't pick fights, etc. We expect all visitors to the city to be courteous to the people who live here.
