The dress code is Black Tie Optional! This means that tuxes and gowns are welcome. For those traveling, please ensure you bring a coat/jacket since it gets chilly in SF at night.

Due to limited venue capacity, we are unable to accommomate plus ones at our wedding unless specifically indicated on your envelope. If you are confused, when you RSVP and type in your name, you will see if you have a plus one! We want everyone to share in the celebration and will ensure that folks will be around familiar and friendly company. We appreciate your understanding!

YES! Lawrence and Alexis have chosen a selection of signature drinks to chose from plus wine and beer. Please drink responsibly!

Unfortunately, we are unable provide parking so we provided alternatives on our Travel page.

We will be doing a Cash Registry but will have a card box for red envelopes / lai see at the event. To also celebrate filipino wedding traditions, we will do a money dance. This Filipino custom represents the financial abundance of the happy couple and helps them build a strong financial future together. Usually, a "Male guests line up in front of the bride to pin money on her dress before dancing with her, while female guests pin money on the groom before dancing with him. At our event, we will accept Venmo to modernize this tradition!

Nope! For the ceremony, sit wherever you please unless the seat is marked as reserved. However, we will be carefully arranging tables so our guests are sat with those they know (or their plus one or partner). We know weddings are a mixing pot of guests who may not know one another, and we went to ease any anxieties for guests who may be a bit more introverted. Hopefully, this can put some of you at ease!

Same goes for plus ones! We are unable to accommodate your kids unless specifically indicated on your envelope. If you are confused, when you RSVP and type in your name, you will see if your kid made the cut.

We know not everyone can make our wedding in person. Unfortunately, we are not streaming our wedding however, we will have a video from our videographer around 6-8 weeks after the wedding that we would love to share with you.

Alexis was ahead of this and stated the time on the invitations to 4pm but ceremony starts at 4:30 sharp! Since parking is scarce in the Financial District, we recommend arriving the city around 3:45 to find parking. At 4:30 PM, the elevator operator will prevent access to the 10th floor and you will be unable to attend the actual ceremony. This will be strictly enforced. You will still be allowed to attend the cocktail hour and reception! We just want to minimize distractions. So, don't sweat it! Hang out in the building lobby and we will see you at the reception. Thank you so much for understanding!
