Geez, about time?

Yep.

How long have you been planning the wedding?

We've been talking about it and gradually formulating the plan for a few years. This is how kids are getting married nowadays, brah.

Why keep it a secret?

Can you imagine people telling you what you should do for your wedding for three years?  Just joking (mostly) – we love all of our friends and family!

Seriously though, we figured it would be more fun this way.

So where's this all gonna go down anyway?

It's a secret.

Can I park there?

There are no lots or street parking near the venue – all parking in the area is private property. Complimentary valet and shuttle services are provided for the guests' convenience and is mandatory.

If you have special requirements (such as guests with limited mobility), please contact Steve and Ashley to coordinate before the event.

How early should I arrive at guest parking?

How long is the shuttle ride?

When does the ceremony start?

Allow at least 15 minutes for valet, pick-up, and arrival at the venue. Valet and shuttle services will be set up at the pick-up area starting at 2:30 PM for guests interested in exploring the venue.  Welcome refreshments will be served.  The ceremony will begin at 3:30 PM sharp.

What if I need to leave early?

What if I need to get something from my car?

I need to get home to walk my cat.

The valet and guest shuttle service will be continuously transporting guests to/from the venue on demand from 2:30 PM until 11 PM.  The wedding coordinator(s) will retain any remaining guests' keys after 11 PM.

Do I need to bring cash for the bar or anything else?

There will be an open bar during cocktail hour and the reception.  Tipping the bartender is the only occasion where cash will be recommended.  Tips for transportation services are already paid; there is no need to tip the valet.

Will there be an engagement party or bridal shower?

Don't you want to celebrate your engagement?

What about engagement or bridal gifts?

We are not planning on having an engagement party or bridal shower – too much pomp and circumstance, in our opinion.  Your thoughtfulness is appreciated, but please save gifts and partying for the ceremony and reception.

Can I gift you something that's not on your registry?

Do you have a honeymoon registry?

Your registry items are not vegan-friendly and I cannot purchase them in good conscience.

We will graciously accept gifts chosen by guests from our registries.  If guests prefer, we would be happy to receive honeymoon fund donations in place of a registry gift. Please address checks to "Stephen Chen and Ashley Coulson" and bring them with you to the event.

Who's ketchup and who's guac?

This is super obvious if you've ever seen Ashley eat fries or the way Steve eats tortilla chips.

Is Ashley pregnant?

No.
