We’re Getting Married!
September 12 thru 14, 2025
Occidental, CA
We request your company as we speak our vows and join in marriage in the presence of those dearest to us.
We are getting married in a redwood grove on our land in Occidental. We are doing this in order to bless our land and introduce all of you to this magical place we are choosing to call home. We were drawn to Occidental by the spiritually rich Jewish community, and have fallen in love with the genuine open hearted people, the beautiful and varied nature, the world class local food, and the surprising convenience. Our wedding weekend will give you tastes of all of this. We hope our wedding will feel like a portal to another realm, with deep connection across our different communities, irreverent fun, open hearts, and spiritual experience.
We want to get our closest people together to start off the wedding weekend. We will have dinner and evening activities on Thursday before the rest of the guests arrive!

Important Housing Info
Please note your preferences in the RSVP form below
As you know, we love our land in Occidental! Bringing you there is an important part of the magic we are calling in for our wedding. Equally important is everyone staying together in community. Luckily, the summer camp directly across the street was available!
Imagine our excitement, being able to bring our dearest people to our favorite place! And at a camp to boot. There are a few caveats (read below), including space restrictions at the camp.
How can you help? Thank you for asking.
RSVP below as soon as possible. Specifically, we need to know your preference for accommodations. You can read more about the camp below. The RSVP form will also help answer questions.
PLEASE DO NOT book other accommodations at this time. We are currently making arrangements for those who we cannot accommodate at the camp to be close by and will be in touch shortly with booking options.
What is the CYO Camp?
CYO Camp is a beautiful 200+ acre property that is an active summer camp. They have a pond, heated pools, camp fire zones, a redwood amphitheater, areas for games and two dozen cabins for our guests.
The camp will be a central hub of activities and games over the weekend of our wedding.
Cabins: The cabins are cozy, accessible, and perfect for groups of friends & families. They offer a laid-back, fun camp vibe with comfortable bunk beds, heat, and ample space.
Joe and Jamie will work with you to find the perfect group to stay with. This may just be your family, it may be you and one other family. We expect about 4-6 people per cabin with space for up to 12 people.
Bathrooms: Bathrooms are conveniently located near the cabins & are shared with other guests. There is ample space for guests to get ready, private shower stalls and sinks with mirrors.If this sounds like an experience you are excited about, please let us know!
Bring your kids!
We would love for your children to be a part of this special weekend (and also understand if you want kid-free activities, there will be lots of those).
There will be many kid-specific activities throughout, during these times we will provide childcare so you are free to participate in adult-only festivities.
Note: There may be age requirements for childcare. More to come.
