faq
Why are we having this party?
Jon turned 50 on January 17, 2025. Joy will turn 50 on January 20, 2026. Our 25th Anniversary is on August 11, 2025. Why *wouldn’t* we have a party?! We thought being alive for half a century and being in love for a quarter century was a great excuse to get together with our favorite people for a really fun night.
Are children invited?
While our kids will be inviting a few friends and though we definitely love your kids, this is an adults only event.
What should I wear?
We suggest “garden chic”, whatever that means to you! Because our property has lots of different surfaces, flats and wedges will be better than heels.
What else do we need to know?
We are on a septic system so we will have very fancy porta potties on site for all your bathroom needs.
We’ll have a looping shuttle all night to/from Central Calistoga. If you aren’t staying locally, please park either downtown and take the shuttle or along the fence between our gate and the bridge.
Should we bring a gift?
Absolutely not. Seriously. If you want to acknowledge us in some way, please consider giving to the following organizations:
