How To Put a Modern Spin on Classic Sonoma Wedding

When you think wine country wedding, rustic details probably come to mind. But this wedding? It breaks the vineyard fete mold and takes classic Sonoma modern all the way. First up, fresh peach-y bouquets from Loop Event Arts that you could almost take a bit out of. Then, gorgeous scenes like this executed by Bustle. And to top it all off—one incredibly gorg cake from The Whole Cake. Sylvie Gil made sure no detail went un-captured and let me tell you, it’s a pin-worthy one for sure!

Jennifer & Kevin’s ceremony, tucked next to the vineyards in beautiful Sonoma County, was the perfect intimate gathering of family and friends celebrating the love and marriage of these two best friends. Jennifer’s two older brothers officiated the nuptials, throwing in plenty of family anecdotes (and even a couple sweet pranks, like a funny photo of the couple hidden under each guest’s seat) for a much more personal feel to the day. Pop violinist Josh Vietti provided both ceremony accompaniment and impressive cocktail hour entertainment. The reception, held in the airy, whitewashed barn at Tyge Williams Cellars was decorated with romantic blush and crimson blooms, as well as hanging wood dodecahedrons spilling over with vines and flowers. Each guest was also given a fortune telling fish, a reference to the couple’s first date at the Mermaid Inn in New York City. A wall holding table assignments for the guests was calligraphed with Kevin’s words to Jen during his proposal, “Let’s not leave it up to chance”.
