FAQs
Question
Where is the wedding?
Answer
Both the ceremony and reception will take place at Kingan Gardens in downtown Tucson. Please check the schedule tab for more details.
Question
Will the celebration take place indoors or outdoors?
Answer
The ceremony and reception will be held outside on turf and brick, so keep that in mind when selecting your outfit and footwear.
Question
What is the dress code?
Answer
The dress code is cocktail attire. We would love to see our guests looking fabulous in semi-formal dresses and suits or slacks with a button-down and tie (no jeans, please). Since we are getting married at Tucson's secret garden, springy florals and colors are encouraged!
Question
May I bring a date?
Answer
If your guest's name is listed on your invite and when you RSVP, then yes! Our guest list is limited to those formally addressed on your invitation.
Question
Are kids welcome?
Answer
We are only able to include guests named on your invitation in our celebration. Your invitation will be addressed to "The [Your Name] Family" if your children are invited. We encourage you to use this evening as a night out—please let us know if we can recommend a babysitter!
Question
Is there parking at the venue?
Answer
Yes! Kingan Gardens has a dedicated 40-spot parking lot that can be accessed via the alley just east of the entrance. There is also plenty of street parking nearby on Franklin Street and Main Avenue that's free after 5 p.m. Uber and Lyft are another convenient option.
Question
Will there be a bar?
Answer
Yes! Beer, wine, select spirits, and nonalcoholic beverages are on us.
Question
Can I take pictures?
Answer
We are having an "unplugged" ceremony and request that you do not use your phone or camera during that time. We have hired photographers and videographers to capture this moment for us, and we'd love for you to be fully present as we say "I do." During cocktail hour and the reception, feel free to take as many photos and videos as you'd like!

Question
What time does the wedding start?
Answer
Our ceremony will start promptly at 5 p.m. We recommend arriving by 4:30 p.m. to allow time for parking and mingling as you find your seat. Please note that you will not be allowed to enter the ceremony after 5 p.m. We would hate to not have you there, so plan ahead!
Question
What time does the wedding end?

We never want this night to end, and hopefully, you won't either! However, all good things must come to an end, so the evening will come to a close at 11 p.m.
