Where do you suggest we book hotel wise?
The event is at The Pendry and it is quite nice. However, it is in the Gaslamp part of Downtown San Diego and there are SEVERAL hotels within a 2 mile radius. Some hotels are literally walking distance. We will make suggestions should you need them.
Where are you registered?
We have been living together for nearly a decade. The normal gifts you would give to a newlywed couple are no longer needed. If you feel like you must we have started a Honeymoon fund for next year. We will be making a trip to Africa and would appreciate donations. Otherwise, please feel free to enjoy our celebration. That's the biggest gift we can ask for. We won't turn down gifts we just aren't asking for any.
What are your wedding colors?
Here are our wedding colors. Anything in this range would blend in rather nicely.
Is there a discount for staying at The Pendry Hotel?
Yes. Please enter the discount code "GRPGEN" when you make your reservations. That gives you 20% off their best rate available.
The Wedding Time is 11 but the Brunch is at 12:30!
We are keeping our vow exchange to a smaller subset of guests. This will happen between 11:00 and 11:30. Don't worry there will be plenty to do in the meantime in the Grand Foyer. The new bride and groom will exit the ceremony around 11:30 if you are in the Grand Foyer during this time it will be a great time for pics!
What is the dress code?
Upscale dress code. While we aren't dictating the code please come dressed nicely. No Jedi robes will be allowed unless you can REALLY use the force. We will expect to see a working Lightsaber before you are admitted.
I have kids with me. Where do they go after Brunch?

Do you have a site for Pictures?

There is also a feature that allows you to upload a selfie of yours. It will search all the submitted pics and pick yours out too!

We haven't decided yet but we look forward to Pixel being annoyed by his new baby brother. It's another miniature schnauzer. May the lord have mercy on us all.
