FAQs
Question

Question
When is the couple getting to the venue for the weekend?
Answer
We will be arriving the Friday before about mid-day.
Question
Are young children invited?
Answer
Yes, however, we request a heads-up just to have a headcount of the little ones! Please note; we will not be providing childcare, but suggest contacting Rancho Bernardo Inn to see if they have a bonded babysitter list. There are multiple families with small children so we will try to connect all via a text or email prior to the date to try to work together on childcare solutions!
Question
Is this an unplugged ceremony?
Answer
Yes!! We will have photographers and a videographer to capture the special day, so we ask that you let them work their magic during the ceremony! During the reception and at any other point we welcome you to capture moments on your cellphone— as long as you share after ;)
Question
Does everyone get a plus one?
Answer
As much as we would absolutely love to have as many people as possible to celebrate with us, we ask that you honor your invitations. Plus ones will be denoted on invitations. Please let us know if there is any confusion or questions!
Question
Is the wedding indoors or outdoors?
Answer
Both! The ceremony and cocktail hour will be outside (the ceremony will be on grass, ladies!) but the reception will be in a ballroom.
Question
What is the dress code?
Answer
Rehearsal/welcome drinks will be cocktail attire and the wedding ceremony and reception is formal attire! Tan / Neutral colors are preferred to match the theme.
Question
Drinks & food— what to expect!
Answer
There will be a rehearsal dinner on Saturday for those in the wedding party and a few close family members. After the rehearsal dinner, everybody is invited to come to welcome drinks which will be pre-paid up to a certain cash limit. Drinks and dinner will be provided for all guests after the ceremony until the party ends around 10 pm. The plan for the after party is TBD. For other meals during the weekend, the Rancho Bernardo Inn has great restaurants on site.
Question
How do I get around?
Answer
Please be advised Lyfts / Ubers are available in this area but not plentiful. We recommend scheduling pick ups ahead of time.
