FAQs

Question

When should I RSVP by?

Answer

September 1st, 2023

Question

What is the dress code?

Answer

Formal. We are aiming for a level just below Black-Tie Optional. Men can still wear a tux if preferred. If opting for a suit, feel free to have fun with it! For women, a floor-length gown, a fancy cocktail dress, or a dressy pantsuit would all be appropriate. We will be eating dinner outside. There will be heaters, but you still may want a light extra layer for later in the evening.

Question

How do I get to the wedding venue? Will transportation be provided?

Answer

Please plan to arrange your own transportation to the wedding venue. San Diego does not have great public transportation options, so we recommend renting a car. (There is a parking garage at the venue for guests.) Ubers/Lyfts are also available in San Diego if you don't have your own transportation. As the wedding gets closer, we will try to help arrange carpool options from La Jolla to the venue. Please contact us if you're interested.
