Travel & Accommodations
We can’t wait to celebrate with you! For our guests who are traveling from out of town, Oakland International Airport (OAK) and San Francisco International Airport (SFO) are the closest airports and both are a ~1 hour drive to downtown Petaluma. We highly recommend renting a car for the weekend.
As a heads up, ours is a very popular weekend for weddings in the Sonoma Wine Country region, and we anticipate that hotels will book up quickly. We highly encourage you to secure your weekend lodging as soon as possible – please note that we do not have a hotel room block, but there are a number of local hotels (see below for some options at a variety of price points) as well as accommodations via AirBnB and VRBO.

Frequently Asked Questions
When should I RSVP?
The sooner the better! If you know for sure that you can or cannot make it, please let us know via our RSVP link as soon as possible. Absolutely no hard feelings if you aren’t able to join us! A quicker "no" will help us to better plan. Please ensure that you RSVP by April 11th at the latest.
What’s the vibe of your Friday night Welcome Event?
We’re kicking off the weekend with a completely optional welcome gathering at The Block, a local Petaluma beer garden. Swing by anytime between 6-9PM to mingle before the big day – drinks are on us! There will be food trucks, live music, and (if history tells us anything) at least a few people taking up residence on the dance floor.
Is there a dress code?
Yes! Our welcome event will be casual but feel free to wear a sundress or resort shirt if you’d like! For our wedding day, we're envisioning a colorful garden party and request that guests wear cocktail attire. When we say cocktail attire, we mean tea-length or midi dresses and suits + ties. The ceremony and reception locations are paved, but we would advise against wearing stilettos. Sunglasses encouraged – it's the longest day of the year after all.
Any other questions?

Many of you are traveling across the globe to celebrate with us in California, so your presence already means the world to us. If you would like to honor us with a gift, a contribution to our honeymoon or one of the items on our registry would be so appreciated.
