COVID Stuff: PLEASE READ!

Dear Friends and Loved ones, this is the most difficult page on our site. As we've seen over the past few weeks, the situation around COVID seems to be changing for the worse. While the vast majority of our wedding guests are vaccinated, we have seen "breakthrough" cases appear at a high rate in California, indicating that vaccines are no longer any sort of guaranteed protection against transmission. There are guests in our party who are immunocompromised, pregnant, and/or otherwise vulnerable, or live together with those who are. Even if you are not personally afraid of COVID, we ask you, beg you, to please be considerate of those who are at a higher risk of getting sick. We feel personally responsible for the safety of all our guests and it would devastate us if someone got sick after our wedding, or worse.

Please Take a COVID Test

The night before or morning of, and at-home tests will do.

We are asking EVERYONE to please take a COVID test the day before or the day of the wedding. At-home tests can be purchased at CVS, Walgreens, or similar, for about $25. You can often even do a “in-store” search for your zip code online to check if stores in your area have it, and there are a few options: * https://www.cvs.com/shop/abbott-binaxnow-covid-19-antigen-self-test-2-tests-for-serial-testing-prodid-550147 * https://www.cvs.com/shop/pixel-by-labcorp-covid-19-pcr-test-home-collection-kit-prodid-3080089 * https://www.walgreens.com/store/c/binaxnow-covid-19-antigen-self-test-at-home-kit/ID=300414527-product * https://www.walgreens.com/store/c/quickvue-at-home-otc-covid-19-test-kit/ID=300416410-product


We can provide a test

We'll drop it off, pay for it, or mail one to you

We are happy to PAY for your test: you can Venmo @alekseimasluk or @fsink17 and we’ll gladly cover it. We also have extras we can bring to your house or mail to you as well, just text either one of us your address (Alex: 650.619.1743, Frances:650.279.0051) and we will mail it to you. Again, we are asking EVERYONE to please take a test the night before or day of wedding on Sept 18, and do anything else you can to be careful and considerate of our high-risk individuals.

Please help us be safe

We're doing our best to accommodate *all* our guests....

If you are feeling sick, coughing, feverish, or fatigue, we know it’s difficult after coming all the way out to Sonoma to make the trip, but please stay home. Text us and let us know, we’ll come meet you individually the next day to say thank you and share a glass of champagne. There is inherent risk in gathering at a time like this. You are absolutely welcome to wear a mask if it will make you more comfortable - because we want you to feel good at our wedding too! All of our vendors will be masked, and the majority of the wedding (everything until dancing at night) will be outdoors. Whatever else, we love you and want you to be there, and want only good memories of our wedding, and the weeks after. Please feel free to contact us with any questions.

For all the days along the way
