Napa Valley Estate Wedding: Part 2 - Cocktails in the Garden

After their romantic lakeside ceremony,  our couple wanted stayed back to take in the moment and get a few pictures  with Isabel Lawrence who did an amazing job capturing this event.  Meanwhile guests made way over to the Bocce lawn.  There they were greeted with some craft cocktails by Rye on the Road ,  delicious passed hors d'oeuvres by Tasha DeSerio and an amazing space to enjoy created by Nicole Sillapere and Rosemary Events.  Thanks to Kristen Loken  for capturing the lovely details at the cocktail hour.  If you haven't seen Part 1 yet, you might want to check it out here. 

Guests mingled and relaxed on beautiful furnishings in the garden. 

Florals by Sillapere.  LOVE Hellebores.  

 Synchronicity Strings played classical renditions of modern songs. 

Florals by Sillapere in vintage silver vessels and gorgeous furniture groupings. 

Sometimes a simple approach to flowers makes more of an impact.  For cocktail hour, only Hellebores were used.

Tiny Pine Press created stunning escort cards for the occasion.  Each card was die cut, calligraphed with guest names and threaded with a silk ribbon which displayed the guest table number.
