What should I wear?

The encouraged dress code is elegant attire with a beach-inspired touch. Think flowy dresses, linen suits, and sophisticated yet relaxed styles in light blues, soft greens, purples, and coral pinks. Please avoid black, white, ivory, or any bold colors—We’d love to keep the palette dreamy and coastal!

Are you doing a registry?

Instead of a traditional registry, we are asking for contributions to our honeymoon fund! If you’d like to give a monetary gift, we’d love for you to place it inside an envelope and these will be collected at the reception at The Portofino Hotel.

Where should I park?

Church: There is a parking lot attached to the church property for your convenience.

Hotel: Parking at The Portofino is $20, with the option to valet or self-park.

What is the phone policy?

We kindly ask that phones stay tucked away during the church ceremony so everyone can be fully present with us in the moment. Please enjoy the ceremony without screens.

What should I do after the ceremony?

After we say “I do,” the bride and groom, parents, and bridal party will be taking photos at the church. We’d love for you to head to The Portofino for cocktail hour which begins at 5:30pm—don’t worry, we’ll be taking photos with all of our guests at the hotel!

Where should I stay?

This is a local wedding, so many guests may not need accommodations. However, if you'd like to stay overnight, we recommend booking a stay at The Portofino, where our reception will be held. You can contact them directly to make a reservation. Other great options within walking distance include The Shade Hotel and The Sonesta Hotel.
