What Should I Wear?
The attire is "festive formal." We really want people to lean into the Christmas theme, so break out those sequins, furs, feathers, velvet, sparkles, etc.
DO's: Red, Green, Black, Gold, Silver, Navy, Brown, Gray, Purple, Christmas Sweaters, Festive Ties & Accessories, Formal Attire, and everything in between.
DONT's: White (duh), Full Dark Green Suit, Shorts, Sneakers, Yellow, Orange, Pink, T-Shirts.
What Should I Bring?
An ornament! We would like each guest to bring an ornament to gift Megan & Harley and decorate one of the Christmas Trees inside the venue upon arrival. Bring something that reminds you of the couple, or that will remind them of you, or just something you want them to have!
Who Is Invited?
Due to limited capacity (and mostly limited budget) the invitations are only for the names on the envelope you received in the mail. We are really limiting the number of kids, plus ones, and even spouses...We understand that this might be frustrating or taboo, but have you tried getting married in Los Angeles? You'd be slicing and dicing your guest list too! We apologize for any hurt feelings, and hope to be able to celebrate with others at later points if you want a chance to congratulate us in person!
Can I Take Pictures?
YES PLEASE. This is a camera-friendly wedding. We want and encourage you to take pictures all throughout the night, from the ceremony through to the last call! We will be providing a QR code for people to upload their photos to a shared album. If you know the bride well, you know she becomes a possum in headlights with formal photography, so she welcomes your candid shots where she didn't have to stare down the barrel of a camera lens.
What Kind of food will be served?
Guests can anticipate a cocktail hour, appetizers, dinner, and dessert. We don't know what kind of food yet, as our tasting is not until September, but we will be updating the website once we have more information.
Where should i stay?
Please see the "TRAVEL" section of our website for more information.
Is It All The Same Venue?
Yes. Both the ceremony and reception will take place at Carondelet House (627 S Carondelet St, Los Angeles, CA 90057).
Who Is That Man At the door?
Upon arrival at Carondelet House, you will be greeted by a security guard. Not because we are super fancy, but just to ensure safety of the event. The security is simply there to make sure that everyone entering the venue is on the list and to encourage anyone lingering or resting on sidewalks of the venue to please move along until the conclusion of the event. They are there to ensure a seamless night and nothing more!
How Christmas-Themed Is It Really?
Pretty Christmasy. Get ready for Christmas trees, mistletoe, gingerbread, Bing Crosby. Tis' the season to be married!
