Please RSVP by the end of October 2026, more details to follow.
Come celebrate with us
We are having a party at our place in Guerneville and would love you to be there.
We affectionately call our place The Canyon. It is tucked into the redwoods near the Russian River, and we would love to get our favourite people together there for a proper party.
Technically it is our 10 year wedding anniversary, but mostly it is a good excuse for friends and family from the UK, the US, and wherever else to eat, drink, catch up, and spend an afternoon in the trees.
If California is a long way for you, no pressure. If you can make it, this page should help with the practical bits.
The party plan
One main party, from 2pm onwards.
Not a formal weekend itinerary, not a black-tie dinner, not a compulsory hike. Just a relaxed Sunday at The Canyon.
Where
Guerneville, California
The party is at The Canyon, our place in the redwoods near the Russian River. We will share the exact address with confirmed guests.
What
Food, garden party, drinks
Food and a selection of drinks will be provided. It is relaxed, outside where possible, and not a formal wedding-style event.
Who
Friends, family, partners, kids
Partners, plus-ones, and children are invited. If you plan to attend please RSVP so we can plan for the correct amount of food and drinks!
What to wear
Come as you are, wear whatever. Late May should be pleasant, but evenings under the redwoods can cool down, so bring layers.
Parking
Parking is available. The roads around Guerneville are rural, so we will send practical arrival details with the address after RSVPs.
Travel and lodging
A few practical notes before you book.
Guerneville is small, beautiful, and rural. If you are making a trip of it, plan accommodation early and assume a car will make everything easier.
Read the travel and lodging notesBook somewhere early
Guerneville and the Russian River area can fill up, especially around holiday weekends. You can find local lodging recommendations here.
Renting a car is strongly recommended
The roads are rural and winding, and taxis or rideshare can be limited. SFO and OAK are the easiest big-airport options; Santa Rosa is the closest airport to The Canyon and can be great if the flights work.
RSVP
Can you make it?
Please RSVP by the end of October 2026 so we can plan catering, drinks, parking, and camping. Accommodation plans are especially useful because The Canyon is water scarce.
