Question

Question

HOW WILL I GET TO DRINKS AND BRUNCH?

Question

WHAT'S THAT LOUD NOISE OVERHEAD?

Answer

In recognition of Ruth and James, The Blue Angels will be flying from 3pm to 4pm all weekend. To maintain our privacy, the airshow, parade of ships and various other events will celebrate our undying love under the codename "San Francisco Fleet Week."

Question

WHAT’S DOCUMENTARY STYLE WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY?

Answer

Unlike wedding photographers that ask guests to pose for the camera, the photographer joining us for brunch is a photo journalist looking to capture real, candid moments. So enjoy the event and pretend the photographer isn't there.

Question

CAN I BRING A DATE?

Answer

If your invitation includes “and Guest” after your name, you are welcome to bring a plus one. If not, we would prefer if it was just you.

Question

ARE KIDS INVITED?

Kids are welcome to join our family style brunch on Saturday, but welcome drinks on Friday night is adults only.

Question

WHEN YOU SAY "NO KIDS," WHAT SHOULD WE DO WITH THEM?
