Frequently Asked Questions
FAQs
Can I bring my kids?
While we absolutely adore the kiddos in our lives, the wedding is adults only 21+.
If you are traveling from afar with your kids to Bend for the weekend, we can recommend the following childcare services company: Snappy Sitters- https://snappysitters.com
Children are welcome to join us on Thursday at the welcome party.
Can I have a plus one?
Our wedding is strictly RSVP only. We are only able to accommodate those invited by name on the invitation at the time you received it. Unfortunately no extra guests will be accommodated. Thank you for your understanding.
What date should I RSVP by?
Please RSVP no later than APRIL 29, 2024!!! You can RSVP directly on this website!
What is the easiest way to get to the venue?
There is limited parking for those who wish to drive. However, we do strongly encourage if you are planning to drink that you please opt to uber/lyft to the venue.
UBER/LYFT instructions: No Ubers will be allowed up the venue driveway, please ask to be dropped at the driveway entrance, and it is a short walk to the ceremony location up the driveway.
Ubers can take time to request in Bend as it is a small time, so please plan accordingly by requesting early and plan to arrive at the venue no later than 2:30pm.
How do we get home from the venue after the wedding?
We have hired transportation! There are charter buses that will be available at the venue starting at 11pm and running until 2am each hour to bring people back to a central location in town (REI in the Old Mill District). We highly suggest people hop on these buses when you are heading home for the night as it is much much easier to call an uber in town to take you to your accommodations than it is to request an uber out at the ranch! Please also note; if you chose to drive to the venue and end up drinking, please leave your car at the ranch, hop on the bus and collect your car the next day! Please absolutely no drinking and driving!!!
Is the wedding outdoors or inside? What is the weather like?
The wedding is outdoors. The ceremony will be shaded, and the reception will be tented. Bend can be quite hot during the day, but please plan for temperatures to dip in the evening. We suggest bringing a light dressy jacket or shawl.
The driveway, ceremony and reception areas have uneven ground, gravel, and grass. Please plan accordingly for your footwear- we strongly suggest no stilettos.
What is the dress code?
The dress code is BLACK TIE. Please see the “dress code” tab on this website for additional details.
What time should I arrive on Saturday for the Ceremony?
PLEASE ARRIVE NO LATER THAN 2:30 PM. There will be space to grab a drink and mingle before the ceremony begins so plan to arrive between 2:15-2:30pm.
But seriously, Please arrive no later than 2:30pm. No exceptions.
Are there other events to attend during the weekend?
