Everyone is invited to the Rehearsal Dinner! It'll be a nice, casual dinner in or around Santa Cruz. Please click through to the next page! We're still working on the details for this part of the weekend, so watch this space! We're planning on a casual evening with dinner and drinks on site at the primary lodge where guests will be staying.
3:30 pm - 3:30 pm
Formal (updated from cocktail). Floor-length dresses and suits welcome. Ceremony is outdoors in the redwood chapel and cocktail hour spills onto the back deck and lawn; dinner and dancing are indoors. Bring a layer for the evening — especially if you want to join the campfire — and shoes that handle grass and gravel.
We'll have a shuttle organized for those who are staying at one of the hotels where we have hotel blocks. If you decide to drive your own car, there will be a parking attendant on site to support guests to find parking. The walk from the parking lot to the outdoor chapel where the ceremony will take place is about five to ten minutes, so give yourself ample time to arrive and get seated in time for the ceremony.

4:00 pm - 10:00 pm
For the ceremony: Unless it's raining, the ceremony will take place outdoors in the Redwood Chapel. If it's raining, we will move the ceremony indoors. The typical seating in the Redwood Chapel is bench seating and the ceremony won't take longer than 30 minutes. If you require special accommodations in terms of seating, please let us know and we will do our best to accommodate! Following the ceremony will be a cocktail hour, reception, and activities and desserts. Guests will be welcome to celebrate with us until 10:00 pm, after which there will be another shuttle available for those staying at the Brookdale Lodge. Please submit this page for your RSVP!
