Wedding Day Blueprint

We start your day in our historic Clubhouse (designed by Bernard Maybeck) with your bridal party sipping mimosas and enjoying the “calm before the magic” in the sun-drenched Wood Room. The garden patio offers a leafy lounge vibe—ideal for those candid “getting ready” shots.

Ceremony in the Garden Lawn or Under the Oak Grove
We make our way to the Burr Woods-surrounded garden lawn where you walk down the aisle beneath towering redwoods. For something more intimate, the oak-grove lawn offers dappled light and an almost fairytale feel.

Cocktail Hour on the Patio & Sun Porch
Guests mingle beneath string lights on the pergola patio; the adjoining Sun Porch serves as cocktail lounge and overflow space where the Clubhouse architecture quietly steals the show.

Dinner & Dancing in the Clubhouse Great Hall
We step into the main hall with wood-paneled walls, chandeliers, and French doors that open into the garden—dinner, toasts, then the dance floor kicks in. No awkward gaps; we keep the energy flowing.

 Sunset Photo Walk & Open Dancing
You and your partner slip out for golden-hour portraits under the redwoods while guests pour into the hall for full party mode. Effortlessly, you, right?

Dessert, Last Call & Send-Off
Cake, coffee, one last dip into the garden glow. We transition smoothly into the “how-did-it-go-so-fast” sigh and you exit, hand-in-hand, into the night.

This blueprint is a roadmap to magic—but feel free to remix it, shuffle the hours, add a surprise sparkler exit or swap spaces as you like. At the Outdoor Art Club, we believe your wedding should feel authentically you, and we’ll quietly smooth the edges while you shine.
