Arriving for your wedding: It is best to arrive dressed for your wedding If you will be dressing at the site plan to arrive 30-45 minutes in advance of the scheduled ceremony. Be aware that some sites do not provide a dressing room.
Weather: Outdoor weddings happen year round in the San Francisco Bay Area. If it rains we use umbrella's, I will have a couple with me. Please bring red umbrellas. If weather is an issue the day of your wedding, a back up location plan is recommended. I have only had one ceremony move its site the day of the wedding due to weather, in which case we used their suite as a back up location.
Meeting at the Site: Meet me at the agreed time and location on the site. Call twenty four hours before the morning of your ceremony with any changes regarding how we are meeting.
Number of Guests: If there is a change in the number of your guests, call me. It may affect the site at the location or the location itself.
Notice: If there are any changes, a minimum of twenty four hours advanced notice is required to discuss the changes. Messages need to be given in person, leaving a cell phone message will not be confirmation of a change.
Flower Information: I provide Rose bridal bouquet with matching boutonnière, when ordered. If you are making a stop to pick up flowers, please plan an addition 45 minutes to make this stop. Plan time for finding the location, parking, waiting, paying, etc. These delays have caused extra location fees for couples.
Timing: Please plan your time line with added time for delays like traffic and direction issues, etc. If you are running late CALL ME either when you know you are going to be late or at the time our wedding was set for.
Thirty Minutes Late: If you are more then thirty minutes, your wedding may have to be re-booked and re-scheduled, which will involve additional fees. Sometimes I have another wedding booked and can not stay and wait.
