Wedding Party

FlightsFlying into SFO Airport is the easiest way to travel to San Francisco. From there taking Uber/Lyft to your accommodation is the most convenient. If you prefer, you can also take public transportation into downtown SF. In the airport, follow signs for BART and this will lead you to the train. Flights into OAK (Oakland) are also very easy but it might take a bit more time to get to your accommodation. BART is very accessible from Oakland to San Francisco.

Accommodations We would recommend booking an Air Bnb or hotels in the areas below that are not blurred out.   Not all parts of SF are safe, so if you find something promising in any of the blurred neighborhoods, please reach out first so that we can confirm with you.   There is also Daly City and South Sf, which is outside of SF, but can be accessible via Bart train until 12PM. It tends to be more affordable than SF, so have at it! Just make sure to leave earlier rather later account for driving, traffic, etc. to get to either of events on time. Of course let us know if you need any help finding a place to stay.

Driving to the Ceremony + Reception We sound like a broken record but! We recommend Uber/Lyft/Waymo to get to the Ceremony and/or Reception. This will ensure you to be on time and not have to worry about parking. Here are some instructions for alternatives though: Driving: Ceremony:<a href="https://maps.app.goo.gl/kD6t1jW6KmeZzpPJA" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">SF Botanical Garden - Garden of Fragrance:</a>Street parking in Golden Gate Park isn't great. If you're driving we recommend Music Concourse Underground Garage and park at the back so you're closer to the California Academy of Sciences exit (closest to the botanical garden entrance). Please note: Car break-ins are unfortunately common in San Francisco. To reduce your risk, please leave nothing of value in your car, either in the trunk or in plain sight Reception:Leon Event Hall, 5051 Mission St, San Francisco, CA 94112 Bus routes:Ceremony:44 O'Shaughnessy: Stops directly in front of the Academy (northbound) and across from the Academy at the de Young Museum (southbound).5 Fulton: Stops at Fulton St./8th Ave. at the north entrance to the park.
