Question

Are Kids Invited?

Answer

We love your kids - we really do, but we want our wedding to be your night off! We welcome guests that are 18+!

Question

What's the Dress Code?

Answer

We kindly ask that all guests wear cocktail attire. Please avoid overly bright hues if possible. We also want you to feel comfortable, so if those shoes are too high or that top button is too tight, let it all hang loose!

Question

What weather should I expect/dress for?

Answer

Of course, we can't guarantee anything, but Monterey is known to have more of an Indian Summer - warmer months will fall later in the year, so September should be beautiful!
