OPENING PARTY
AUGUST 14th, 2026 FROM 6-9 PM
THE GUTTER at THE LAFAYETTE HOTEL
2223 EL CAJON BLVD, SAN DIEGO, CA 92104
Dress Code: Americana Cocktail
Think preppy, Western, Southwestern, vintage, nautical, or whatever your favorite version of Americana may be, but make it cocktail! Food will be served.
CEREMONY
AUGUST 15th, 2026 AT 2:30PM SHARP.
MISSION BASILICA SAN DIEGO DE ALCALÁ
10818 SAN DIEGO MISSION RD, SAN DIEGO, CA 92108
Dress Code: Unforgettable Black Tie
Ladies, black tie does not mean you need to wear black! Please embrace color, sequins, feathers, volume, glitter, and drama. We are requesting formal, full-length attire rather than cocktail-length dresses, so get as dressed up as possible and really go for it.
Gentlemen, tuxedos are highly encouraged if you have one. After Friday’s welcome party, a buffet of accessories from Danny’s dress-up archive will be available to borrow in the bridal suite if you would like to add something special to your wedding look.
Please arrive with plenty of time to be seated before the ceremony begins promptly at 2:30 PM SHARP. Remember, church time means on time, and as good of a negotiator as Nicole is, she cannot negotiate with the Catholic Church.
Trolleys will depart from the Lafayette beginning at 1:00 PM. If you are staying elsewhere, we encourage you to meet us at the Lafayette and ride to the Mission, as there will be a few fun surprises along the way 🦓🚋💒🕵🏼♀️
The Mission’s museum will be open before the ceremony. At 257 years old, Mission San Diego de Alcalá is the oldest of California’s missions and well worth exploring if you would like to arrive early.
CELEBRATION
AUGUST 15th, 2026 AT 5:30PM
THE LAFAYETTE HOTEL
2223 EL CAJON BLVD, SAN DIEGO, CA 92104
After the ceremony, two rounds of trolleys will return guests to the Lafayette. Enjoy portraits and cocktails in the lobby before the reception begins at 5:30 PM. Take fabulous photos while your makeup is fresh, grab a drink and mingle, switch into an evening look because you’re extra like that, or do whatever your heart desires! We cannot wait to dance the night away with you!
