Spring formal attire with a splash of color! Think bright or pastel hues and floral patterns—something festive for a spring celebration in the Santa Cruz mountains. Midi or maxi dress lengths are perfect. Here is a pinterest link for inspo: https://pin.it/7z9ADHcmw For men: Slacks or dress pants with a button-down or collared shirt. Blazers or suits in light or colorful tones are encouraged! Dress shoes only—no jeans or sneakers please.

Due to narrow, winding roads and very limited parking, outside vehicles are not permitted at our wedding venue. To make things easy, we’ve arranged a shuttle service for all guests. Shuttle pick-ups will run from 8:30 AM to 10:30 AM from this location Ss Peter and Paul Antiochian Orthodox Church at 9980 Hwy 9, Ben Lomond, CA 95005. The shuttle accommodates 14 guests at a time and will be making multiple trips. The final pick-up will be at 10:30 AM, arriving at the venue by 10:45 AM. Unfortunately, guests who miss the final shuttle will not be able to access the venue, so please plan ahead. We’ll have around 60 guests needing transportation, so we kindly ask that you don’t wait until the last minute—arriving earlier will help ensure a smooth and stress-free ride for everyone. Our ceremony begins at 11:00 AM, and we ask that all guests are seated by 10:55 AM. At the end of the reception, the shuttle will bring guests back to the church. Return trips will begin at 4:30 PM from the venue’s Guest Hub, with the final pick-up at 6:15 PM and last drop-off at 6:30 PM. Thank you so much for helping us keep everything running smoothly—we can’t wait to celebrate with you!
Guests traveling from out of town who are not staying at Brookdale Lodge will need to find nearby parking and make their way to the Brookdale Lodge for shuttle pick-up. Please be sure to plan ahead and allow plenty of time to arrive!
We’re so excited to celebrate with our favorite people! Due to limited space, we’re only able to extend plus-ones to guests who are married, engaged, or in established relationships with whom we’ve had the pleasure of meeting or speaking with personally, unless we’ve given prior approval with you in advance. We truly appreciate your understanding!
