IMPORTANT THINGS TO NOTE
We’re hosting a welcome party on Friday, March 20th at 5:30 PM and would love for you to join us! Since most of our guests are traveling in, we want to spend some extra time with you before the big day. The party will be at:
2601 E Brown Rd, Mesa, AZ 85213
This is behind the music studio - it's an outdoor area. We will provide food and drinks.
Our ceremony and reception will both take place at the Desert Botanical Garden in Phoenix, Arizona. The ceremony (4:30 on March 21st) will be held at the amphitheater, followed by cocktail hour and reception at the Center for Desert Living’s Steele Herb Garden.
From 5:30 to 6:30 PM, while we’re off taking photos, enjoy snacks and stroll through the beautiful garden!
Are plus-ones and children allowed?
We are having a small wedding (60 in attendance)!
To prioritize intimacy on our wedding day, we are only having a few friends and family come to our special day. We do love you and truly appreciate your support and understanding.
Children:
Of course are allowed - if stated on invitation :-)
Is there a wedding schedule?
⏰ Wedding Timeline & Locations
Amphitheater at the Desert Botanical Garden. We kindly ask guests to arrive early (4:30pm) to allow time for parking and to find the ceremony location.
Following the ceremony, please join us for cocktail hour and our reception at the Center for Desert Living (Steele Herb Garden) , just a short walk from the ceremony site.
Please refer to the map for the exact locations of both venues within the Garden. There will be plenty of signs.
Is there a dress code?
🌼 Garden Chic / Semi-Formal / Colorful
We’re getting married surrounded by desert blooms, so let’s dress the part! Think elevated, outdoor-friendly outfits that are both stylish and comfortable. We LOVE color! So don't shy away from it ;)
Some ideas (not requirements):
Girls: Flowy dresses or pant suits- in floral prints, earth tones, or soft pastels
Guys: Lightweight suits or dress shirts with slacks, ties optional.
Shoe note:
Our ceremony and reception will be outdoors on garden paths, so we recommend block heels, wedges, flats, or dressy sandals to keep you comfortable and grounded
