From Laurie Arons Special Events… Joanne and Daniel, two Brits who met and fell in love while living in Houston, Texas, chose the Napa Valley for their wedding – they wanted to bring together family and friends for a beautiful weekend full of surprises. They envisioned an ultra-sophisticated affair, but sprinkled with cheeky touches to reflect their style and sense of humor. Throughout the planning process, the bride and groom made several trips to wine country to brainstorm fun ways to treat their guests to an experience they’d never forget.

AUBERGINE!!! YAY! So rich!
I love her veil and cascade bouquet, too! They look like they had a nice time.
I could die for the paper flags and the vintage lounge furniture! I wonder if that was onsite or she sourced it? Such a fabulous wedding. Cjeck out my blog for all your wedding and event decor needs. www.prettydomestic.blogspot.com xo
Love the vingate furnature for the seating area! I would love to know if they were rentals. I am looking of the same thing!!!!
love the pewter table linens, so gorgeous. the whole wedding just seems to shimmer.
I am in LOVE with their invitation suite! I know it says table numbers & signage are PS Papers, but do you know if they handled the invitations as well?
Very pretty wedding. Where are the cute little monogrammed bags from (I'm guessing these were part of the bridesmaids gifts?)?
I love the shoes!My colors are very similiar, and I can't find shoes for the girls to save my life! haha
Does anyone know who the designer is.. or where I could get ones that resemble those?
Can we please find out more details on the vintage furniture? DREAMY.
Such beautiful colours brought out by the photography and i love the sofa setup!
I would love to know where the clutch came from. So pretty!
Thanks everyone for the nice comments about the wedding. The furniture was rented from the floral designer Kathleen Deery in San Francisco, you can learn more about it on her website www.kathleendeerydesign.com .
The invitations were purchased from Union Street Papery in San Francisco.
The bride had the clutch bags made custom in Texas for the bridesmaids, I will find out where and get back to you. Same for the totes for the bridesmaids, I will find out.
What a beautiful layout and design -- thank you to the amazing SMP team! Huge kudos also to wedding planner extraordinaire Laurie Arons. And thank you to Joanne and Daniel for allowing us to share your incredible day, it was such fun working with you and your great families...!
Thanks Ladies for the wonderful comments-- it truly was the wedding of my dreams! Laurie Arons and her team did an excellent job helping me to plan the wedding and Meg Smith is such a talented photographer. Laurie and Meg were an absolute pleasure to work with.
The clutches were purchased from Etsy, I believe the vendor was Mollusa based in Spain. The bridesmaids shoes were actually bought from DSW, the brand is Caparros.
