From the first call, Lauren and Madison envisioned something different from the New York City formal wedding that was tradition in her family. They were laser focused on a destination wedding, specifically a Meadowood Napa Valley tented wedding. The two had a special connection to the property, having visited earlier in their relationship, and knew it was the perfect spot to celebrate their nuptials. Lauren worked in the fashion industry and had a strong sense of style and design. We worked for over a year to make sure every detail was perfect, right down to the hand-painted printed items and welcome gifts brimming with Napa Valley favorite goodies.
After an incredible beginning to the weekend, it was time for the main event. 150 friends and family gathered on Meadowood's Vintner's Lawn to witness the couple exchange vows under a lush Chuppah of white garden roses. Lauren wore a Mira Zwillinger gown with a bouquet of peonies, white roses and maidenhair ferns. Bridesmaids wore individual looks that complemented the wedding palette. Ladies carried gorgeous peonies with yellow centers with geranium, mint and sweet peas.

Champagne and hors d'oeuvres were passed as guests mingled on the lawn. Guests found their hand painted seating cards nestled in a gorgeous bed of ferns and greens, then strolled to the lakeside tent for dinner and dancing. Elan Artists Ground Control had guests dancing all night.
