FAQs
Question
Do I need to rent a car?
Answer
No. Especially if you stay in Little Tokyo, you can fill your weekend in Los Angeles with walkable, traffic-free entertainment. Also, rideshare is abundant in Los Angeles. If you do bring a car, our wedding venue will have a valet. Keep in mind that hotels in downtown LA typically charge about $50/day for parking.
Question
Can I walk from Little Tokyo to the venue?
Answer
It depends. It is a ten-minute, 0.4-mile walk from the Miyako hotel to our venue. But the walk will take you through an area that has been seriously affected by the city's homelessness crisis. We thus recommend that even city slickers consider rideshare. If you elect to walk, we recommend this route: Walk east on 1st or 2nd street to S Central Ave. Continue south on S Central Ave to Towne Ave. Take a slight right onto Towne and walk south one block to the venue.
Question
What airport should I fly into?
Answer
If you can, we recommend you fly into Burbank. It is closer to the venue, much easier to navigate, and a generally adorable airport. With that said, if your two options are a nonstop to LAX or a one-stop flight to Burbank, those will probably end up taking about the same amount of time. We do not recommend flying to Long Beach, Santa Ana, or Ontario.
Question
I have a food allergy, can I make a special request?
Answer
Yes. Please let us know of any food allergies you have as soon as you can, especially if your allergies affect the foods that can be safely served to those sitting around you. Dinner at the wedding will be served family style and will include vegan and gluten-free options.
Question
Can I Stay Anywhere in LA?
Answer
LA is a huge city. Check how long your drive to the wedding will be, with traffic, before you book an AirBnB or stay with a friend “in LA.”
Question
What will the weather be like?
Answer
In LA in March, the average high is 70, the average low is 52, and it rains a few days of the month. Our wedding will be largely indoors, but weather permitting we will open up the roof to let in a fresh breeze. If you tend to get cold, you may want an extra layer.
