Wedding Ceremony

Our ceremony and reception will both take place at Blake's in Walnut Creek. The ceremony will happen on the first tee under a covered tent overlooking the golf course and lake and will begin as the sun sets. After the ceremony we will make our way to the Bistro for dinner, dancing and one Fabulous Celebration! Keith and I are looking forward to sharing this evening with our favorite people!
