attire considerations
Will the events be outdoors?
Yes, the ceremony and reception will take place outdoors. Remember to bring your sunglasses and sunscreen!
What will the weather be like?
September in Palm Springs is still warm and summery. Expect hot dry days, lots of sun, and warm evenings.
Average daytime highs will likely be in the high 90s to low 100s°F (36–40°C), with evenings dropping into the mid 70s (21–26°C), so feel free to bring a light layer.
Will there be lots of walking?
There will be some short walks between different parts of the wedding program. The Parker property has a mix of grass areas and stone pathways, so we recommend shoes that feel comfortable and easy to walk in.
