Q & A

When is the RSVP deadline?

We haven't set one yet, but it will likely be in early May.

What should I wear?

You should wear something that makes you feel fancy. We don't want to have a strict dress code, but if you'd like further guidance, a nice dress, pantsuit, or suit are all good choices. As is traditional, please avoid wearing all-white.

Will the wedding be indoors or outdoors?

The wedding ceremony will take place outdoors, and the reception will take place indoors inside the hangars.

What will the weather be like?

The weather in California in June is typically very nice, with the average daily high temperature around 75°F (24°C) and average daily low temperature around 55°F (14°C). The chance of rain is extremely low.

Are kids allowed?

Yes, you are welcome to bring your children. Please let us know their names if they are not listed in your party already, so that we can have an accurate head count. There will not be childcare provided, but there are some side rooms that you can retreat to if they need a break.

Can I bring a plus one?

If there's someone special in your life, we would love to have them. So that we can have an accurate head count, if they are not already listed in your party on the RSVP, please let us know at misha.and.elizabeth@gmail.com.

I have dietary restrictions.

So do we! We have some questions in the RSVP form to collect this information. If you think more explanation is needed, please reach out to us at misha.and.elizabeth@gmail.com.

Will there be an open bar?

Yes, we plan to have an open bar serving a range of drinks (beer, wine, cocktails), as well as nonalcoholic options.

Can I give you a gift?

Your presence is a present! The thought is appreciated, but we already have all the things we need for our household. We are grateful you all are taking time out of your busy schedules to join us.

Will there be other events during the weekend?

Right now all we have planned is the wedding! However, we may arrange some small excursions to local attractions on Friday, Sunday, or Monday, especially if there is interest. The RSVP form has a place to indicate your interest in being informed about this.

What's the food plan like?

We plan to eat dinner after the ceremony, around 7:30 pm. There will be appetizers beforehand, and after dinner there will be dessert.

Can I take pictures on my phone?

Yes, except for during the ceremony. We've hired a photographer to help us document everything, and we will have an instant camera around for entertainment, so you don't need to take pictures, but you can if you want to.

Will there be dancing?

Yes! Our RSVP form asks for song recommendations, but if you would like to submit any before or after RSVPing, you can email them to us at misha.and.elizabeth@gmail.com.

Will either of you be changing your names?

Nope, we both have published papers under our names :)

Do you both love airplanes or something?

Neither of us is a diehard airplane fanatic. (Elizabeth likes trains better. Misha likes rockets better.) We do, however, both enjoy a good airplane museum.

Is there a wedding theme?

Well, Elizabeth's favorite color is purple, and Misha's favorite color is orange. It's a struggle. We may end up making the decorations sunset-themed (like this website) if we can pull it off.
