Q + A

Where is the wedding ceremony?

The ceremony will take place at the MADRONE PICNIC SITE in Roberts Regional Park in Oakland, CA. Please drive down to the parking kiosk. Continue forward and look for signs for the Madrone Picnic Site on the RIGHT SIDE.

Where is the reception?

Bay Vista Picnic site is a short walk from the ceremony site through the redwood grove. Please stay in the cocktail area until welcomed into the reception venue.

Is there parking?

Yes, there is a $5 parking fee for all cars. Cards and Cash accepted.

Where should we park?

Please park in the first upper lot. Follow the signs to the Madrone Picnic Site on your right as you drive in. Unfortunately, the handicap parking is not advised, they are the farthest distance away. In the event there is no parking, the lower lot can be utilized. However, the Madrone Picnic site will now be a walk back up the hill for you.

What should I bring?

We suggest a few items: 1. A quirky, personalized beverage vessel to keep you hydrated and stand out from the crowd. 2. Comfortable layered clothing to adapt to the day's changing temperatures. 3. A little cash or your card to cover the parking fee—just $5! 4. Lastly, your fantastic festive spirit, ready to make unforgettable memories on our wedding day!

Are children allowed?

Although we adore children, this is an adult only event aside from our family and the wedding party.

What is not allowed at the park?

Smoking and hard alcohol of any kind is prohibited.

Please respect the park by adhering to the following guidelines:

Please do not touch or disturb the trees. Do not rake the grounds. Leave no trace. Be mindful of the trash sorting options on site to help minimize the impact of our large party.
