For ferries, highways, wildfire conditions, parks or municipal requirements, use the relevant official source close to the wedding date rather than relying on an old article or social post.
Venue contracts and local authorities remain the source of truth for property rules, permits, alcohol service, noise, fire restrictions and temporary structures.
