FAQ

Everything you probably want to know, answered before you have to ask.

01 When do RSVPs close?

[RSVP deadline to be confirmed — typically 6–8 weeks before the wedding. We'll update this once the date is locked in.] Please respond by the deadline so we can give an accurate headcount to our venue and caterer.

02 What's the dress code?

Garden Formal. Think flowy dresses, linen suits, and anything that photographs well outdoors. Parts of the ceremony may be outside, so consider your footwear. Please avoid white, ivory, and champagne.

03 Is there parking at the venue?

[Parking details to be confirmed. This will be updated once the venue is locked in.] If you plan to drink at the reception, we recommend arranging a rideshare — both Uber and Lyft operate in the Santa Barbara area.

04 Are kids welcome?

[To be confirmed once venue capacity and logistics are finalized. We'll update this clearly when we know.]

05 Is it indoors or outdoors?

[Venue TBD — details will be updated here. Santa Barbara in April is typically beautiful, with mild temperatures in the mid-60s to low 70s.]

06 Is there an open bar?

Yes. Full open bar at the reception: wine, beer, cocktails, and non-alcoholic options. Please drink responsibly and plan your ride home accordingly.

07 Who do I contact with questions?

[Point person name] is coordinating guest logistics. Reach them at [contact@example.com]. Please don't text or call the couple directly in the weeks leading up to the wedding — we want to actually be present for it.

08 Can I bring a plus-one?

Plus-ones are noted on your invitation. If yours says your name only, the invitation is for you specifically. If you have questions, reach out to [point person name].
