FAQs

Question

Where should we park? Should we drive or should we ride share?

Answer

Here are a few options on how to get around for the ceremony/reception, depending on if you have a car or not: 1. If you have your own car or a rental car AND are planning to walk with us in the parade we recommend the following: Park your car at the Mill Valley Community Center lot (free and ample parking). Then uber/lyft from the community center to Old Mill Park. You can uber/lyft with other groups you meet to save time/money as well! Walk back with us and your car will be in the right parking lot at the end of the night! 2. If you have your own car or rental care and are NOT planning to walk with us or have different mobility needs, we recommend the following: Get to Old Mill Park AT LEAST 30 minutes in advance to find street parking near the park. We will be in the amphitheater, which is close to the library. Then after the ceremony, drive to the Mill Valley Community Center for the reception and park there. 3. If you are exclusively doing ride share we recommend the following: Take your initial uber/lyft directly to Old Mill Park to be dropped off for the ceremony. Parade on back with us to the community center! Uber/Lyft home at the end of the night. All other events for the weekend will have free parking lots!

We love food, and we know you do too! Here’s a preview of the menu for each event during the weekend: Welcome event in the park: Snacks and beverages, but not a full meal.

Question

I have some food allergies/preferences. What should I do?

Answer

Please text us for any dietary restriction or allergies.

Question

What’s the dress code?

Answer

Ceremony/Reception: Garden party/cocktail. Think, nice for a late spring/early summer wedding! The bridal party will also be wearing flat shoes/tennis shoes and we recommend you do too! There will be some outside forested terrain, grass, and the second line parade from the park to the reception so comfy shoes are a must! Sparkly tennis shoes, comfy tennis shoes, nice comfy flats; we do not recommend wearing high heels. Welcome event and brunch are casual!

Question

Should I bring anything else?

Answer

For the welcome event, we will be in a large grass field. If you live locally, we recommend bringing chairs or picnic blankets! We also LOVE sunscreen and reusable water bottles as staples for all events and highly encourage these.

Question

Can I bring my kids?

Answer

We will have limited space for babies and kiddos, so please text us ahead of time if you are planning to bring kiddos. With that being said, we are overall planning a kid friendly event! There is a separate classroom at the community center for the kid station, we will have babysitters (again please text us if you’re bringing kiddos so we can plan for enough childcare), and there will be a quiet nursing/changing/napping area for the babies. Turns out there will be a carnival happening that weekend in Mill Valley, we will be next to a kid friendly museum for the welcome event, and the bay area is filled with parks and beaches so there will be plenty for your kiddos to do!

Question

What should I bring for my kids?

Answer

A change of clothes. We love them in their cute suits and dresses, but also know they’re gonna see grass and wanna run around. We’d love them to have the freedom to do so! Snacks. We will have food available at the wedding, but if your kiddo is picky or has specific food needs and doesn’t want tacos for dinner or appetizers during cocktail hour, please plan to have some food they’ll like. Wagon or stroller. We will be walking from the ceremony to the reception in a parade! If you’re kiddo can’t walk 1.5 miles on their own, we recommend a stroller or wagon. We will have a stroller parking area at the ceremony Tips for the babysitter! We will pay the base rate, but if you’re leaving your kiddo in the kids room, please tip the babysitters! We will NOT have highchairs for babies, so if your kiddo is high chair aged, they’ll likely be sitting in your lap or their stroller for the ceremony and reception
