Greetings!
Hello friends and family,
We are honored you may be able to join us to celebrate our special day on May 20th at our home in Pasadena. We're lucky to already have a home full of everything we need, so please enjoy this website where you can consider a contribution to our dream honeymoon next year and also find out more details about our wedding day.
**Note: to book a hotel room within our room blocks we recommend you call the hotel as there have been some issues with the online links. Just remember to mention our wedding party names.**
Thanks for visiting and we can't wait to see you on our big day!
Love,
Hiram & Russ

More Information:
***5-9-17 update*** It's almost here! And there's nothing to fear...except the horrendous traffic! Just got word today that the U2 concert is now starting at 6:30 p.m. on Saturday. This only contributes to what already is being predicted as a terrible day to be on the 210 freeway in or heading to Pasadena. Multiple events happening on Saturday.
For those out of towners or those staying in town from Thursday/Friday on, you'll be fine...but for our local friends driving in from points far and between in So Cal...PLEASE keep this in mind to allot yourselves extra time to get to us. We can't wait to celebrate with ALL of you!! XOXO

Dress code:
Upscale casual. What does this mean? As an example for men, this could be wearing a button down shirt, sports coat and dress slacks (no tie required). For women, sun dress or blouse with neat pants or skirt.
Environment:
The wedding and reception is at our home and outside. Average high temp in May is 79 and low 57. Should be rain free (Fingers crossed!!). You might want a light jacket as it does get cool in the evening.
Parking:
If staying locally, the best means of transportation is Lyft, Uber or a taxi. Should you choose to drive, please note that we live in a quiet residential neighborhood with plenty of free street parking. We ask that you be respectful of the neighborhood both upon arrival and departure.
Driving Directions:
You get to our home off the 210 freeway. Coming in either direction, exit Hill Street (versus Lake Avenue), travel approximately 1.5 miles to Washington Blvd, turn left at light and take your 3rd right onto Michigan Ave. Go through one stop sign and take your first left on Elizabeth Street and we are the 2nd home on the right. Thank you!
