“A Curated Private Estate, Napa Valley Wedding with an Unforgettable Food + Wine Experience”

Leslie and Reed have to be one of the most unique couples I have ever planned for! I loved the way they chose to celebrate their love + marriage. It was so FUN and more importantly so THEM. They had the most beautiful Napa Wedding.

The celebrations kicked off with an amazing Engagement Party in New York City where they are from. This party had more than 150 guests at the social club Leslie and Reed belong too. It was so fun to watch this celebration happen while we planned their intimate, destination, Napa Valley wedding for the following Summer. 

Leslie is a professional food stylist and chef, her creativity and inspiration for her wedding were unmatched! She wanted to curate a wedding experience like no other for all their guests. One of the ways we did that was to make the food and wine the star of the show, especially in Napa Valley! 

We hired Goodness Gracious Catering out of Sonoma for this unique wedding day! Chef Lauren and Leslie came up with an amazing menu that showcased the best of season and the Napa Valley essence. The wedding menu was mostly vegetarian as well. Guests were served a five course meal that ended with their own personal mini cake serving. Palette Cakes blew us away with their work on this one, guests chose their cake flavor and each cake had its own design correlating with the overall wedding aesthetic. It was the most magical detail.

While all the was happening, behind the scenes Hannah Lillian and her team were shooting all sorts of food and beverage details. Leslie’s big idea was to turn her wedding into a cookbook. She was going to write recipes for the food served and each guest submitted a recipe to be included as “the guest book.” Such a genuine  touch and I can’t wait to get a copy! 

After an incredible dinner and dessert guests danced the night away to the Gold Standard hybrid band underneath the Napa Valley stars. It was an unforgettable evening to celebrate Leslie’s + Reed’s love.
