Is this a child friendly event?
Yes. But also...
Well... we'll put it like this: There will be DJ's playing fairly loud music, costumes will be halloween in style - so potentially scary for tiny people - and we will not be curbing ourselves to be child appropriate. Nothing will be intentionally inappropriate, mind, but if hearing curse words is a problem for your tiny people ya might consider getting a baby sitter.
That said, we will have a child wrangler onsight cause there will be about half a dozen kids. *** NOTE: THE GIFT SHOP IS NOT A PLAY GROUND***
What are transit options?
Reno does have all the things: Uber, Lyft, general taxi's, and of course a bus system. Many of the hotels have private car options as well - simply ask the hotel concierge.
In short, we love you, don't drink and drive.
It's worth noting that Halloween in Reno is a big DUI day, so expect police to be on the road all weekend - like a lot.
Gifts?
There will be a pirate chest on sight for booty. Overall though, we hope that ya'll will choose mail directly to the house or chip in to the buy a house fund. See the registry page for more deets. And of course, please do not feel obligated. You're appearance is gift enough to us!
Altitude! Mountains?
Reno, NV is located at 4505 feet. That is, for most coming to this shingid, 4500 feet higher than where they live. Please be conscious of drinking water and electrolytes (Pedialyte, Body Armor, Gatorade if you must). It will be for most, hot and dry. Chapstick and lotion are your friends.
Smells and Quirks
Friendly reminder that many of our guests and wedding party are... quirky and queer. Please be respectful and patient with each other. Ya'll are gonna meet a lot of characters. Please mind your manners.
Additionally, scent sensitivity is a real thing. We're not saying not to wear what ya love, but we are saying to be conscious of the amount.
Diets?
We are rockin a Taco's! This will be buffet style from one of our favorite local joints. It will do average taco truck style things. There will be options for the pesca/veggie/vegans. :)
I don't drink alcohol
Sweet! We're of the belief that a person gets to drink and eat what they want, no questions asked. We will have a general supply of water, soda, and shrub like things at the bar, along with some of the N/A cocktail beverages now popular. Don't worry, we got everyone covered here.
Bathrooms?
Indoor and lovely! Yes, there will be plenty of space and mirrors to adjust your costume should ya need to tinkle.
Do I have to costume?
To quote the indomitable Wednesday Addams: 'I'm dressed as a cereal killer - they look just like every body else'. If that's you're take, awesome. Overall though, this is a costume party being thrown by a couple of clowns that have spent the last 2 decades working for one of the biggest circus parties in the world.
In short: BRING IT
