We'll be sending out the shuttle pick-up schedule to those who signed up, so be on the lookout for that. The shuttles will also run after the wedding to get folks home, including those who go out in Guerneville afterward.
We have two important updates for those who are driving:
!! UPDATE 1 !!
Do not use Apple Maps to navigate to the ceremony; it'll take you to the wrong place. Google maps or our directions are correct.
!! UPDATE 2 !!
Since there are only a few people driving (yay!), please go ahead and park at the ceremony site and then move your vehicle to the reception site parking lot afterward. No need to park at the Monte Rio Community Center unless you wish, but the shuttle will NOT run to the Community center before the wedding.
If you park at the Monte Rio Community Center, please stay in the upper lot because the lower lot because is gated at sunset.
