CAN I BRING A DATE?
We kindly ask that only those named on the invitation attend as we would like to keep this an intimate event. Thank you for understanding!
ARE CHILDREN ALLOWED?
We love little ones but have decided to keep our celebration adult only. We encourage our friends and family to use this as a night out!
WHAT IS THE DRESS CODE?
For the wedding, our dress code is Formal Beach Attire. Think polished and elegant, with the beach setting in mind.
Women are encouraged to wear mid-length to long dresses, and men may wear suits, with ties optional.
For the welcome party, our dress code is Resort Chic. Think polished yet relaxed style. Women are encouraged to wear flowy maxi or midi dresses, stylish jumpsuits, or nice jeans. Men are encouraged to wear casual collared shirts (short or long sleeve) and pants or nice shorts. Sport coats are optional.
WILL THE EVENTS BE INDOORS OR OUTDOORS?
The ceremony and reception will both be outdoors on the rooftop of Casa Loma Beach Hotel. Expect it to be high 60s to low 70s and sunny for the ceremony and then dip into the low 60s for the latter half of the night. We highly recommend bringing sunglasses and something to cover up for warmth in case there's a breeze. We will have some outdoor heaters available but please plan ahead in case you tend to get cold.
The welcome party will be indoors/outdoors as well. We highly recommend bringing sunglasses to watch the beautiful sunset over Catalina island and something to cover up for warmth in case there's a breeze. We will have some outdoor heaters available as well.
WILL THERE BE TRANSPORTATION PROVIDED FOR THE EVENTS?
Both the wedding and reception will be at Casa Loma so no transportation is needed if you're staying at the hotel. We highly recommend using the Laguna Beach Trolley (it's free!) for getting around town if you're staying elsewhere or just want to explore town throughout the weekend.
For the welcome party, we recommend driving or ubering to the event as the trolley doesn't have a close stop.
WILL PARKING BE AVAILABLE AT THE EVENTS?
Parking is limited to Casa Loma Hotel guests for $60/day. There's also plenty of free overnight parking available (5 min. walk) on any unmarked street in the neighborhood north of Casa Loma.
For the welcome party, there are plenty of open spots on any of the surrounding streets near the Dumas house.
