FRIDAY WELCOME
Wine and Charcuterie in Sonoma Square
We are excited to announce that we will now be hosting a welcome event for meeting and mingling in Sonoma Square on Friday, October 10, from 3:00-7:00. We will be meeting in the southwest corner of the park and will have wine and light snacks. We invite all who are available to join. There are many great spots for dinner reservations in and around Sonoma Square (or in Napa ~25 minutes drive away) for you and your party to enjoy after the welcome event. Please fill out this form to let us know if you think you might make it on Friday (by Sunday October 5).

We will be providing shuttle service from a parking lot near Sonoma Square starting around 3:00 on Saturday afternoon. Shuttles will be running to and from the Square until around midnight, and will also make stops at some local spots if you are staying nearby. We encourage you to fill out the accommodations form (please indicate your name and location of your accommodation) if you haven’t yet already.
There will be some parking onsite, but we encourage all who will be imbibing in the fun to find alternate means of travel. If you would like to park onsite because you are not imbibing or have a designated driver, please email our wedding planner to coordinate: freida.sebastian.events@gmail.com
HONEYFUND / REGISTRY
Gifts for the Grooms
We are also excited to share with you that we are planning our honeymoon to Japan for the Spring of 2026! We have set up a Honeyfund site where you can give gifts that will wow us with all that Japan has to offer from tours of local marketplaces to sushi dinners, and date nights in Tokyo to stays at traditional Japanese Onsens (countryside spas). You know how much we love to travel and we invite you to be part of our next big experience!
