What's the gravel for? Just use the weed barrier and 2 to 3 inches of
sand.

I thought while I was at it, I would put in some gravel, to improve
drainage.

If drainage is your main concern then forget everything and just use the
gravel. I would use Rice Rock - a very fine gravel that you could walk on
barefoot. Not as comfortable as sand, but still walkable. Put it down around
4" to 6" and when you get weeds just spray with Round Up.
