Why You'll Love This Place
A Here Comes The Guide Wedding Venue Review
- This breathtaking Sonoma Valley estate transports you to the Mediterranean, surrounded you with towering cypress trees, manicured boxwood hedges, and beautifully tended gardens and grapevines. At its heart sits a magnificent 1920s chateau, adorned with gran Palladian windows, a red-tiled roof, and an exquisite central courtyard lined with breezy loggias.
- The landscaped inner courtyard evokes a classic European garden, making a romantic setting for intimate "I do"s. The sprawling, palm-studded courtyard lawn is perfect for entirely al fresco celebrations, with vows set against a stunning backdrop of rolling vines, cocktails in the shady Olive Grove, and dancing the night away beneath the sparkling stars.
- The ease and sophistication of the setting extends to the remarkable hospitality, with a talented staff on hand to ensure the process feels seamless and the day unfolds flawlessly. Best of all, they'll help you pair their award-winning wines with your menu from one of their preferred caterers, giving your guests the gift of a remarkable wine tasting experience as they celebrate your love.
