Our wedding location is in kind of a tricky area. It's a golf course, and it's surrounded by vineyards. Welcome to Wine Country!

While that does provide a lot to do, if you enjoy wine, it also leans towards the bougie side of things and means ... expensive hotels and inns.

Nearest to our venue is The Kenwood Inn and Spa. It's gorgeous and has a wonderful spa but it is pricey. There are some other places in Kenwood, as well, I think. I know we are abundant in AirBnB and VRBOs around here!

Further east up the road is a town called Glen Ellen. Also a quaint li'l town of cute store and lil inns and lodges that might be a smidge less costly. Of course, if you really wanna check things out - keep heading east into the town of Sonoma!! Historic Sonoma Plaza (where I got to meet Keanu Reeves!), the Sonoma Barracks, General Vallejo's Home, etc.

Come more to the west into Santa Rosa and the options widen much more!!

Thankfully, Sonoma County itself is quite vast with a lot of cities and towns. We live in a bedroom community called Rohnert Park which has its own little grouping of hotels. We have a casino called the Graton Resort and Casino which has its own hotels and a couple others nearby (check in with Nikki on which hotels in Rohnert Park and Santa Rosa to AVOID AT ALL COST.)

I do know that this is so much information and it really doesn't narrow it down a whole lot. But, I also plan to try to be open and transparent about times and things and the golf course where the wedding is being held is pretty super easy to find! So, once you're on the main highway it's on ... Siri/Alexa, whoever is leading your GPS will walk you right out there!

As always, if there are any questions, please feel free to reach out to Charles, or Nikki, (probably Nikki because she grew up here and works in law enforcement so she has all the inside scoop on the good/bad areas.)

Hope to see you all there!!!
