Lodging for Out of Towners

We LOVE AirBNB! We’ve used the service numerous times, and have had nothing but amazing experiences with it. If you’d like to check it out, you can get $40 off your first stay by clicking the logo below! (And we get travel credit that way too, so everybody wins.)

If you’d prefer to stay in a hotel, we have a room block reserved at the Hampton Inn & Suites in Folsom:

155 Placerville Rd, Folsom, CA 95630
916-235-7744

Table Arrangements

Click here for the Table Arrangements list! (But don’t worry, you won’t have to memorize where you’re sitting.) We will have the room layout posted at the event.

Attire

Nice dinner wear is nice: dress/skirt/slacks with button-down, tie optional. Steampunk or Ren faire garb is also welcome! There will be at least one fairy present.

Guest Video Messages

We will have a camera set up in the lobby for you to record a brief message for us! Be prepared with your advice, jokes, or whatever else you’d like to tell us.

Beverages

Oak Hills Church is a dry campus, so there will no alcohol provided or allowed. However, there is a coffee bar in the lobby that will be open before the ceremony and during the reception.

Adults Only

Yes… you read that correctly on the save the date. We sadly realize that this may unfortunately prevent some of our friends and family from attending. Here are our reasons for this difficult decision, in no particular order:

• Your children may be the sweetest, quietest children in the world. However, if we make an exception for yours, one of two things will inevitably happen:
  1. We will have to make an exception for ALL children of at least that age, and others may not be so quiet;
  2. We don’t make an exception for anyone else, and subsequently get a lot of upset comments from the other parents at the wedding or after.
• Our guest list is already over 200 people with only adults. Including children would bring that number to at least 250 (that we know of), and we are paying to feed everyone and have limited table space.
• There will be melee weapons used at one point during the ceremony (spoilers!), some of which may actually be real. We will of course be taking every safety precaution, but if at some point during the reception while no one is paying attention, one of the kids goes and finds a sword and hurts themselves or someone else, that’s our liability.
• We don’t want our friends and family possibly distracted from the ceremony – and distracting those around them – by having to take care of a child’s needs.
• This is what we would like on our wedding day.

We would appreciate respect for our wishes.
