Our Wedding

Q + A

Is there a dress code?

We kindly invite our family and friends to dress formally for our wedding. The dress code is formal or black-tie optional. We respectfully ask that guests refrain from wearing white or navy blue.

What will the weather be like?

The temperatures in San Diego in November average around 68-73 degrees. Sunset is at 4:47 PM, with temperatures cooling to an average 60 degrees at night. We recommend bringing a jacket for the evening as it does get chilly on the coast.

Wedding Party

We spent the entire night driving around Alaska chasing the Northern Lights, stopping at every spot we could find. Chena Lakes, one of our favorite places to ice fish and snowmobile, was our last stop of the night. It was already 3 AM, and the sky was completely still. We walked out to the frozen lake and stood in silence, taking in the stars and the quiet around us. Even without the Northern Lights, it felt peaceful and perfect. As we started walking back to the car, the sky suddenly began to glow. I turned to tell Alec, and he was on one knee. I said yes, then immediately asked if we could go to the car because it was 20 degrees below zero! It was calm, freezing, and perfectly us.
