HOW
Shuttle Service:
THERE IS NO PARKING AT ONE LANE BRIDGE VINEYARD
Shuttles will pick up at the following locations:
1 - The Westin Verasa 1314 McKinstry St, Napa, CA
Time: Be in lobby at 2:45pm to load. Shuttle departs promptly at 3pm
This is the most convenient to The River Terrace Inn. NOTE: no shuttle will be picking up at The River Terrace Inn as it is directly nextdoor to the Westin so these guests can walk over. However, the River Terrace Inn has a large and free parking lot if you are commuting by car to the shuttle pick-ups
2 - The Hawthorn Inn 314 Soscol Ave, Napa, CA
Time: Be in the lobby at 2:45pm to load. Shuttle departs promptly at 3pm
3 - Browns Valley Elementary Parking Lot 1001 Buhman Ave, Napa, CA
Time: Please arrive by 3:20pm to load for a 3:30pm departure
We are providing this option for those of you who will be driving as there is a good amount of parking in the lot and street parking in the immediate area.
**If you do not see the shuttle immediately when you arrive, do not fret! It will be circling from some of the other stops and will pick you up soon.
Camera and Cell-Phone Free Ceremony
You can blame the bride for this one. Please respect our wishes to have NO personal cameras or cell phone cameras pointed at us during one of the most important moments of our lives. When we look out at you, we want to see your faces, not your faces obstructed by your arms and an electronic device. Worry not! We have spent ample money on a phenomenal photographer and her assistant to capture all angles of this ceremony, and there will be a videographer to boot! We will share these photos with you in the future.
The reception, of course, is free-reign. Get out those iPhones and hashtag us. #moriahandchris4eva
The Kiddos
Again, we apologize that this is a kid-free event. The site of our wedding is rife with child hazards. Gulches, an un-fenced swimming pool, 20+ acres of hilly vineyard. We love your kids, but you'll have to leave them with a sitter.
Childcare info can be found on the bottom of the Accommodations page.
A Special Thanks
Our wedding is happening but by the hospitality, generosity and grace of Kathay and Wyman Smith, the proprietors of One Lane Bridge Vineyard. The property is their home. The vineyards are not just for beauty, but are also a working business. We are so grateful to this beautifully selfless couple for opening their home to us. We hope you all get to meet them as they will be present at all events. And it goes without saying, please treat the event site with great respect.
