Dinnerware
Heath Ceramics (http://heathceramics.com/go/heath/)
We love the elegant esthetic Heath brings to everyday dining: modern + classic, understated + beautiful. Heath is a Bay Area institution and "one of the few mid-century American potteries still in existence." Visit the factory and store in Sausalito where, at a significant discount, they sell "seconds" ... which are just fine by us!

There are a few key items neither of us has picked up along the way which has meant borrowing yours or sharing them with you!
Towels, a Gravy Boat for Stacy, + a Few Other Things
Macy's (http://macys.weddingchannel.com/)
We like Macy's towels the best: absorbant, plush + quick drying.
Cookware + Serving Stuff
Crate and Barrel (http://www.crateandbarrel.com/Gift-Registry/)
Top Drawer, Next to the Stove
Sur la Table (http://giftreg.surlatable.com/slt/grws)
While it's true the name of this place is pronounced funny, it's the best place to get the best of what's still missing in our utensils drawer.

Getting to the River
We're certain some of you are scratching your heads thinking, "Monte Rio...huh?" For you Bay Areans, "four miles south of Guerneville" should orientate you. Even so, below you'll find information which we hope will help you get to the River easily. If you need further assistance, let us know.
Airports
Sonoma County Airport (http://www.sonomacountyairport.org/)
Use airport code STS when searching for flights
The closest airport to the River with service through Alaska Airlines/Horizon Air. Routes are pretty limited but do include flights from Los Angeles. Car rental agencies are nearby and from the airport it's about a 30 minute drive to Monte Rio. Click here for driving directions. Oh, and the airport is named after Sonoma County's favorite son, Charles M. Schultz. (Yes, there is a Snoopy store.)
San Francisco International Airport (http://www.flysfo.com/)
Use airport code SFO when searching for flights
The most convenient BIG airport - every carrier flies here. Come a few days before the wedding or stay a few days after to check out our super-fabulous city. You can get to and from downtown on BART or rent a car from the numerous agencies nearby. Drive time from SFO to Monte Rio is about 2 hours - depending on time of day - and you get to go over the Golden Gate Bridge! For driving directions click here. Or, let someone else drive (at least most of the way): Airport Express offers shuttle service between SFO and STS from where you can rent a car and only drive 30 minutes.
Oakland International Airport (http://www.flyoakland.com/index2.cfm)
Use airport code OAK when searching for flights
On the East side of the Bay, Oakland airport is SFO's cheaper alternative - most of the time. BART can get you into San Francisco and back and car rental agencies abound. Drive time from OAK to Monte Rio is about 2 hours - depending on time of day. Click here for driving directions. Or, let someone else drive (at least most of the way): Airport Express offers shuttle service between OAK and STS from where you can rent a car and only drive 30 minutes.
