What is the attire?
The event will take place in a forest setting, so we recommend outfits that are both polished and comfortable. Think elevated outdoor wear: breathable fabrics, layers for changing weather, and shoes that work on natural terrain.
Will the ceremony and reception be outdoors?
Yes! Both the ceremony and reception will be held outdoors, nestled under beautiful redwood trees. Since it's a morning wedding in October, the weather should be crisp and comfortable—perfect for enjoying nature. We recommend dressing in layers just in case it's a bit cool early on, and wearing shoes that are comfortable for walking on natural ground.
What time should I arrive?
Please plan to be seated by 9:45 AM, as the ceremony will begin promptly at 10:00 AM.
We kindly ask that you arrive no earlier than 9:30 AM to allow for final preparations. Early arrivals may limit our ability to complete important pre-ceremony moments—like photos—without interruption. Thank you for understanding!
Can I take photos during the ceremony?
We’re having an unplugged ceremony, so we kindly ask that you keep phones and cameras tucked away during this special moment. We’ve hired a professional photographer to capture everything, and we promise to share those photos with you! We’d absolutely love to see the day from your perspective too—so feel free to take photos and videos during the reception and afterward.
Do I get a plus one?
Everyone invited is listed on the invitation.
Are children allowed?
To give all our guests the chance to relax and enjoy themselves, we respectfully request no children at our wedding. A reminder that everyone invited is listed on the invitation. If you are unsure, guest names are viewable on the website under “RSVP” when the family name is typed into the search bar. We hope you can join us for a fun, adults-only event!
What if I have dietary restrictions?
We’ve planned a buffet with a variety of options, so there should be something for everyone! Please feel free to choose whatever works best for your dietary needs. If you have a severe allergy or specific concern, feel free to let us know ahead of time.
Is there an open bar?
We will have champagne available for mimosas, with beer and wine after the ceremony.
What are the parking or transportation options?
There is on-site parking. Directions will be provided when you enter the venue, only a few miles down Hwy 9 from Downtown Saratoga.
