Both the ceremony and reception will be held outdoors in the backyard of the Old Hyde Ranch in Sonoma, CA. Cocktail hour begins at 5pm, followed by the ceremony at 6pm. A brief interlude leads us to dinner, dessert, and dancing until our evening ends at 10pm.
Your guess is as good as ours! Summer in Sonoma is expected to be quite warm, but there will also be ample shade on the property. This will be the second longest day of the year, so expect daylight to last well up to 8pm! Sonoma winds pick up in the evening, so please dress accordingly.
Semi-formal: dresses and suit jackets encouraged. As the venue is outdoors with lots of grass and unpaved surfaces, we highly recommend wearing shoes with flat or wedged soles - wearing heels will be at your own risk! Sonoma evenings cool down with a breeze, so please bring a jacket and dress accordingly.
We are planning on having small snackables during cocktail hour prior to the ceremony. For dinner, we will have a menu of salad and two paella options - a meat/seafood mix and a vegetarian option. A variety of small desserts will follow. Please let us know if you have any dietary restrictions, and we will do our best to accommodate!
For guests that are driving to the event, there will be plenty of clearly marked parking space available on the property. Otherwise, the location is well within the Uber service area. If you are planning to enjoy our open bar, please drink responsibly and coordinate your travel plans accordingly.
Yes! Family means the world to us, and that includes our youngest members.
