Yes! We will be going out to bars Saturday day/night. Would love to see you there! Please plan for your own accommodations.
We recommend staying in or near midtown Sacramento if you plan to attend the after party and/or want to keep partying with us on Saturday. If you're attending the wedding only, Elk Grove is a good option for reasonably priced hotels. Check out our 'Accommodations' section for airport and specific hotel suggestions.
The dress code is formal attire. Think full-length dresses or elegant [jump]suits and ties, but of course, wear what is comfortable and makes you feel great!
Guests begin gathering at 5:30pm and the ceremony will begin promptly at 6:00pm.
The ceremony will take place at Grand Island Mansion—13415 Grand Island Rd, Walnut Grove, CA 95690 . It's a ~40min drive south of Sacramento.
Although we love your children, we regretfully cannot accommodate them at the venue due to restricted numbers.
Given the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and so that all of our guests can feel comfortable and safe, we hope all guests attending the wedding are vaccinated. If this presents any issue to you, please contact us directly.
The ceremony and cocktail hour (immediately following the ceremony) will be outdoors (weather permitting). Dinner will be inside the mansion and we will end the night with festivities and dancing outside in the courtyard.
Yes! There is plenty of parking.
Sacramento's summer weather in early June is generally warm with highs of 85°F, and lows 59°F. If you generally run cold, we suggest bringing a jacket as the reception will be outside.
Take as many pictures as you like! We would love to see any you post, so please include #ClayAndAriel in all uploads.
