Travel & Logistics

We are hoping that everyone who will be attending our wedding will be making at trip out of it for you and your family.


There will be an itinerary of events scheduled through out the week. Starting on Thursday (07/25) afternoon/evening and going through Sunday night (07/28).


We suggest guests arrive as early as mid-day Thursday 07/25 (or Wednesday - 07/24 for those who are making it a longer trip) and planning to depart at late as Monday 07/29 afternoon/evening (or Tuesday - 07/30 for those who are making it a longer trip).


Although the wedding day itself has an age cap of 13 years of age, we hope that families will take the opportunity to make this a vacation for themselves also.


For Family: We recommend staying at Nick's Cove as it's close to the venue and the restaurant on the water is where we will be having a family brunch on Sunday the 28th.


For party friends: We recommend the Inn on Tomales BayMod Home (airbnb) on Tomales Bay and the Carriage House (home rental) for walk ability to the venue.
