Am I invited to all the events?!

Question
Are kids invited?
Answer
The invitations are generally for adults only. The venue only allows for a certain number of guests, so we are limiting kids to our immediate family to keep within these limits. If you have a particular need/circumstance, please let us know!
Question
Will it be hot?
Answer
Yes! In order to keep everyone cool and comfortable, we are planning for events to be either in the earlier morning, and the early evening and night. In addition, we plan to have shade for the morning ceremony, as well as misters.

Question
Any reason we're heading to Palm Springs?
Answer
We chose Palm Springs because it was accessible to our family in different parts of California and around the country. We were also able to find an outdoor space, where we could have our events in the same space over a few days.
Question
Is there parking at the venue!
Answer
Yes! There is a parking lot that can accommodate up to 40 cars. However, this may not accommodate all of our guests. For people staying nearby, Lyft and Uber are good options for transportation within the area to avoid any worrying.
Question
I couldn't find the gift registry, where is it?
Answer
No gifts of any kind please! We are so pleased that you'll be able to join us, and that is the biggest gift of all!
Question
Is that Sachin's real hair?
Answer
Time waits for no man, and Sachin is no exception. Enjoy his toupée, but please don't touch!
Question
When should I arrive in Palm Springs?
Answer
Our event on Friday night starts at 5pm, so we recommend leaving plenty of room to manage logistics, potential rush hour traffic, and travel to the venue. We wouldn't you to miss out, (and for us to miss you)!
