Before the Celebration Continues
FAQs
Question
Getting Around
Answer
Valet will be available at the Magnolia Hotel Houston for the reception. There are also several parking garages nearby in the downtown area. Our ceremony and reception venues are just a short distance apart- about an 8-10 minute walk (roughly four city blocks). We recommend using Uber or Lyft between the ceremony and reception for the easiest experience. Parking is available at both ceremony and reception.
Question
What Should I Wear?
Answer
We're leaning into a formal look for the day--think suits and long or cocktail dresses. Everything will take place indoors, so dress for comfort and celebration.
Question
What Will the Weather Be Like?
Answer
Houston weather can be unpredictable in May-it may be humid, rainy, sunny, or even a bit chilly. While all events are indoors, we recommend planning accordingly for transitions between locations.
Question
Are Children Invited?
Answer
We love your little ones, but our wedding day will be an adults-only celebration. We hope enjoy a night out with us!
Question
Will Transportation Be Provided?
Answer
We will not be providing transportation between venues. Fortunately, everything is very close and rideshare options are quick and convenient.

Things To Do
Daikin Park
If you’re staying a little longer, the Houston Astros are back in town Monday, May 4th. Shirley has fully converted to Astros fandom (sorry, Angels!), and we love spending game days at the ballpark—especially with an El Tiempo margarita in hand.
NASA Space Center Houston Visitor Center
Bad Astronaut Brewing Co.
This spot is extra special to us—it’s where we went on our first date! It’s also our go-to neighborhood hangout, known for great beer and plenty of space for friendly competition!
Captain Foxheart's Bad News Bar & Spirit Lodge
Something you may not know—Ryan loves a speakeasy! This is one of our favorites in town, with great cocktails and beautiful views.
