The Venue
We are so thrilled to celebrate with you at Whispertree, a stunning 650-acre property nestled in the Bell Valley of Boonville, California.
Once ranch land, it’s now a beautiful gathering space surrounded by expansive nature. Together we’ll get to enjoy the hiking trails, grassy knolls, and maybe even a refreshing swim in the pond. Other highlights include an eight-foot cedar hot tub and fire pit.
Boonville and the surrounding Anderson Valley area has plenty to explore – local wineries, expansive parks, and rivers perfect for swimming. Whispertree is also an hour from the Mendocino coast, where you’ll find rocky beaches, breathtaking views, and surfing. More ideas and links in the Explore section!
Lodging
The darling town of Boonville is just 15 minutes from Whispertree and has great, but limited, lodging options. There are hotels, inns, and Airbnbs available and we encourage you to book your accommodations as soon as possible! We’ve reserved all rooms at Indian Creek Inn and Anderson Valley Inn.
Indian Creek Inn
Cute inn where each room comes with access to a shared kitchen, common room, and lounge space. About a 15 minute drive from the venue. There are 15 rooms available.

To make a reservation call 707-937-5525 and mention that you’re booking for Grace & Tim’s wedding.
Boonville Hotel
A dreamy hotel, but it does require guests to join for dinner one evening of their stay. If you’re interested in staying here, we recommend extending your trip to Monday so you can have dinner at their charming restaurant Sunday night. Call or book online!
Airbnbs
There are some great options in Boonville and Philo. If you’re interested in staying in an Airbnb we recommend you book ASAP as homes are limited!

FAQs
What is the dress code?
We want you to feel fabulous at our wedding! Please dress in whatever festive formal attire makes you feel beautiful. Bright colors are welcome! Friday evening’s event is more casual - have fun with it!
All events will be OUTSIDE! We recommend bringing a light layer. Saturday's events will require short walks, so please wear shoes that are comfortable. Best to leave your stiletto heels at home :)
Are children welcome?
While we love your little ones, our wedding and reception will be an adults-only event. If you choose to bring your kiddos along for the weekend, they’re welcome to join for the festivities on Friday evening. Please reach out with any specific questions or requests - we’d love to do everything we can to accommodate you and your family.
Will transportation be provided?
We will have a shuttle bus taking folks to and from Boonville and Philo on Saturday pre and post event. Indicate in your RSVP if you would like to reserve a spot on the shuttle, we will follow up with timing and pickup details. Transportation will not be offered on Friday evening, and there is ample parking at Whispertree. We recommend renting a car for the weekend!
What will the weather be like?
Hopefully the weather will be PERFECT! For Northern California this means mid 70s during the day and low 60s/high 50s at night. There is typically no rain in May, though it might be windy. The hills should be green and the wildflowers plentiful! Even if it’s sunny and warm during the day it will get chilly at night, so we recommend bringing layers for the evening. Dinner will be held under a tent.
Do you have a registry?
Your presence is the greatest gift we could ask for. Seriously! For those whose love language is gift giving, you can find our honeymoon fund and home registry in the registry tab.
Registry
