Question

What COVID-19 precautions should I take?

Answer

To ensure the safety of all of our guests, we ask that you please receive a negative COVID-19 test before attending our wedding, especially if you have been in a large group gathering right before our wedding weekend. If you feel sick, we respectfully and kindly ask that you do not attend to continue keeping everyone safe. We are not requiring masks but you are welcome to wear one depending on your comfort level. We will update this section based on the ever-changing COVID-19 situation.

Question

Will the ceremony and reception be indoors or outdoors?

Answer

Our wedding ceremony, cocktail hour, and dinner reception will be held outside on the lawn. While September in Santa Cruz is almost always pleasant, you may want to bring a light jacket or shawl. The dancing portion of the event will take place inside.

Question

Is there a dress code for the ceremony and reception?

Answer

The dress code for our wedding is semi-formal attire. Please note that Santa Cruz can get chilly when the sun goes down so please bring a shawl or jacket.

Question

Are there any other wedding events I should know about?

Answer

We'll be hanging out at the Hilton Scotts Valley hotel bar (Stonehouse Bar and Grill) around 9/9:30pm on Friday, September 9 if you would like to stop by and say hi before we say "I do!". After the wedding ends on Saturday September 10, we will most likely head back to the Hilton Scotts Valley hotel bar (Stonehouse Bar and Grill) to continue celebrating.

The ceremony starts promptly at 4pm. Please aim to be there at least 15 minutes ahead of time, 3:45pm.
