Logistics

We are so excited about sharing our wedding with you and want to take special care to make your visit to the Silicon Valley is as comfortable as possible.

Getting Around

Here’s a map we made for our wedding day to help guests get around. [zoom in | print (pdf)]

Flights

If you are flying in for the wedding, you’ll find the closest airport to be San Jose (SJC), but San Francisco (SFO) is not much further. Often flights to either airport are priced equally.

Lodging

We have a blocks of rooms at the Westin ($129) & Sheraton ($109), Palo Alto for your stay. You have up to 30 days before the wedding (October 12) to book a room with the reduced rate. Just tell them you know us.
