De ja vue...

2 couples, same hotel, same church, same winery, 2 different, yet equally beautiful weddings. I was here a few months ago at Holy Family Mission Church in Rutherford and Andretti Winery in Napa and returned again on a beautiful summer day in August for the wedding of Jill and Scott. They had a classic and romantic Napa Valley celebration down to the grapes in the centerpieces. The color scheme of eggplant, mustard, olive and burgundy were echoed in the rich colors of the landscape and architecture. The beautiful photography is from J.P. Langlands and the wedding coordinator was Yong Suk Willendrup. Enjoy!

The bride carried a bouquet of all eggplant calla lilies with golden crystal jewel accents.

The bouquet was wrapped in gorgeous fabric from her dress with a stunning crystal applique.

The boutonniere had actual olive branches and olives hanging from it!

Real edible grapes hung from the centerpieces.

Doesn't that look good!

"Start your Engines"!!!!!

Mario Andretti is known for more than racing...his winery in Napa was the venue for J & M's beautiful vineyard wedding reception. I met this great couple from Davis last year and worked with them on the flowers for their spring wedding. Not a single detail was left untouched. The bride had everything mapped out and matched to a "T". Her many hours of planning turned out stunning as everything came together perfect. From the quaint little wine valley church on a dirt road to her "pinch me...we're married" seasoning jar favors, you could feel the thoughtfulness in every aspect. Some of the great vendors I had the pleasure of working with were Andretti Winery, Bellissima Vita Wedding Coordination, Sweetie Pies and Eclectic Visions Photography. Here are few pictures that I took of the flowers, I will post some professional shots when they come in as I am sure they are stunning!

The two different colored linnens really stood
out next to the Andretti backdrop.
