Wedding FAQs
When should I RSVP?
We kindly ask that you RSVP no later than November 1, 2025! You can let us know you’re coming by clicking the RSVP button in the menu above or by mailing us the RSVP card from your paper invitation.
How do I get there?
Indio/Palm Springs International Airport (PSP): ~22 minutes away
Los Angeles International Airport (LAX): ~2 hours away
Where should I stay?
We recommend booking the Holiday Inn Express in Ranchero Mirage, where we’ve reserved a hotel block for our guests just 15 minutes from the wedding venue. Reserve this hotel by calling 760-340-5516 and asking for the Simmons-Yi hotel block or by clicking this link.
What should I wear?
Our dress code is formal. We request that women wear mid-to-floor-length dresses and men wear button downs and slacks (light weight jackets are also encouraged). If you’d like to match the wedding’s theme, opt for a solid desert color such as terracotta, prickly pear, or dusty blue.
Both the ceremony and reception will be held outdoors. While it’ll be warm during the day, the desert cools down at night.
Where should I park?
Please note that there is no parking available at Casa Tierra. We recommend using Uber or Lyft for transportation to the venue. Our ceremony will begin promptly at 4pm, so we ask that you arrive by 3:40pm to allow time to be seated.
After the reception, we’ve arranged for a shuttle service to drop off guests at our the hotel block (the Holiday Inn in Ranchero Mirage) or the afterparty nearby!
Are kids welcome?
Our wedding events will be adults-only. We hope you take this opportunity to enjoy a getaway in Palm Desert!
Can I take pictures during the ceremony?
We kindly request an unplugged ceremony. Feel free to take photos during our cocktail hour and reception!
