Question

Can I bring a plus one?

Answer

We’d love to celebrate with everyone, but due to space constraints, we’re only able to include those named on the invitation.

Question

Are kids invited?

Answer

We absolutely love your little ones, but we want to give you the night off! With the exception of immediate family, we're keeping this an adults-only celebration.

Question

Are there Ubers/Lyfts?

Answer

Uber and Lyft are readily available in Carmel and a great option for getting to and from the venue. As this is a smaller area, we recommend requesting your ride a bit earlier than you might in a larger city to allow for slightly longer wait times.

Question

Will transportation be provided to events?

Answer

Bus transportation will be provided to and from the venue from both Carmel-by-the-Sea and the Hyatt Monterey. Seats are first come, first served. If you’d prefer to come on your own schedule, Uber and Lyft are also available and a great option.

Question

Is parking available?

Answer

Both complimentary valet and self-parking is available at Bernardus. If you plan on drinking, please leverage the bus transportation we will arrange at the end of the night.

Question

Where should we stay?

Answer

The ceremony and reception will be taking place in Carmel Valley, which is a bit more remote outside the center of town. Bernardus is also a hotel, with rooms available to book. If not on site, we recommend staying in Carmel-by-the-Sea or Monterey. We will be arranging transportation in both meeting points. Carmel-by-the-Sea is one of our favorite places on Earth. The small town is walkable with tons of cute shops and restaurants and walking distance to the beach. Monterey is about a 10-15 minute drive from Carmel-by-the-Sea, also with spectacular views, shops, and of course, the Monterey Bay Aquarium!
