Please note that all guests must travel to and from our wedding venue on shuttles, which we will provide. *Our venue will turn away any guests who attempt to arrive in private vehicle, taxi, or rideshare, and we will be fined.* Shuttles will stop at the El Pueblo Inn, the Fairmont Sonoma Mission Inn, The Lodge at Sonoma, and in front of City Hall on the Sonoma Plaza. Those driving to Sonoma for the day can park anywhere along the Plaza - hourly parking restrictions are not enforced into the evening. There is also a free parking lot off the Plaza located at 335 1st St E, Sonoma (referred to as "Free All Day Parking" lot on Google)
We ask that all guests attending our wedding be fully vaccinated, and that everyone wear masks while onboard our shuttles. We will update this page with any other applicable Covid restrictions. Our wedding will be outdoors except for dancing, which will be in a barn. If anyone prefers to remain outdoors during the dancing, there will be an outdoor seating area near the barn.
Cocktail / semi-formal attire.
We are unable to include young children in our wedding ceremony and reception. Children traveling with their parents for our wedding weekend are invited to attend our Welcome Reception on Friday night as well as brunch the day after the wedding. If you plan to bring your child to the Welcome Reception and/or brunch, please let us know.
Our wedding will be outdoors and Sonoma gets cold at night, so we suggest bringing a jacket/wrap. Our venue is a rustic winery with grass and gravel so we do not advise wearing stiletto heels.
We recommend renting a car if you want to explore the greater Sonoma/Napa region and easily travel to and from the airport. The town of Sonoma can be explored by foot. Those staying near the Plaza will be able to walk to many shops, restaurants, and wine tasting rooms, as well as our Welcome Drinks and After Party events. You will also be near our shuttle stops for transportation to and from the wedding. It is possible to walk to our Farewell Brunch from the Plaza, though it will take 45 minutes to an hour depending on location. Or consider renting a bike to pedal to brunch and explore more distant wineries!
Smoking outside the designated smoking area nearby is not permitted due to extreme fire danger. Please be considerate and use caution if smoking.
To maximize parking spaces and avoid inconveniencing neighbors, we will have an attendant on site directing parking. Please follow his instructions. Some parking locations will be several minutes' walk from the house; we ask that the spaces closest to the house are saved for older guests.
