Wedding Weekend Schedule

The Wedding Website of Chantal Young and Colten Tognazzini
The wedding ceremony and reception will take place in Big Sur. Because Big Sur is a rugged and relatively undeveloped place with few lodging options, we are inviting guests to stay in Carmel-by-the-Sea, a fun and charming town approximately 40 minutes north of Big Sur. We are offering a full wedding weekend experience with gatherings on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Our intention is to create time and space to meaningfully connect with each of you. Guests may wish to make this a weekend getaway. This part of California is stunning. Come and stay a while.
