We understand Sea Ranch isn’t the easiest place to travel to.
We are so grateful for each and every one of you who have decided to make the journey to celebrate us.
Sea Ranch is on the Sonoma Coast several hours north of San Francisco. For those joining from out of town, you can fly in to any Bay Area Airport and rent a car. Highway 1 has long, windy stretches of coast, so we recommend driving during the day if this is your first time to the area.
Shuttle Service:
We won’t be offering shuttles to the Welcome Party, so please organize with your rental car or carpooling.
Wedding Day: we are offering shuttles from Hotel Breakers in Gualala to the Sea Ranch Lodge. Shuttles will pickup at 3:30pm. You will need to answer if you’d like to use the shuttle (through our website RSVP page).
End of Night: Shuttles will also pick up from the Sea Ranch Lodge at 9pm, 10pm, and 11pm and drop off at Hotel Breakers in Gualala.
