The story
This Mill Valley wedding stayed close: a first look and ceremony beneath the redwoods at Old Mill Park, followed by a walk with guests to the Outdoor Art Club for cocktails, dinner, cake, and dancing.
Old Mill Park · Outdoor Art Club
Two venues worked because they were neighbors.
Old Mill Park created a shaded redwood ceremony; the Outdoor Art Club provided getting-ready rooms, gardens, dinner, and dancing. Walking between them kept the change of place from interrupting the day.
The walk between ceremony and reception became the hinge of the story—everyone leaving the formal part together and arriving ready to celebrate.
Mill Valley, Marin County
The beginning stayed loose.
Cornhole in the garden, friends getting ready, family helping with clothing, and cards exchanged at the first look gave the early photographs real activity rather than a sequence of invented moments.
Why this story matters
This is a strong Marin plan for guests.
The route is easy to understand, the ceremony feels immersed in the landscape, and the reception has indoor and outdoor options. The key is respecting redwood light, public-park access, and the transition on foot.
