FAQ

What should I wear?

The dress code is semi-formal / cocktail. Keep in mind we'll be on the coast — it can be breezy and cool in the evenings, so bring a layer. The property is located in a state park, so expect nature, grass, dirt, trees, etc. We recommend shoes that you are comfortable walking in.

What will the weather be like?

Historically, May has had highs in the mid 70s with temperatures dropping to the low 50s and high 40s in the evening.

Can I bring a plus one?

We're keeping our celebration intimate. Please refer to your invitation for specifics on who's included.

Are kids welcome?

While we love your little ones, this will be an adults-only celebration.

Can we take pictures/videos during the ceremony?

We have decided to have an unplugged ceremony, which means we kindly request that you please turn off all electronic devices and enjoy being fully present in this moment with us. You will be able to take as many pictures and videos as you'd like following the ceremony!

What about parking?

If you choose to drive to The Lodge at Marconi there will be complimentary parking when you arrive at the venue in front of the hotel lobby. For those staying at The Lodge, you will be able to walk to all event spaces.
