Napa, Napa, Napa – why must you be so pretty, so perfect for saying I do? We love you for it, we do – but we just can’t help ourselves when a wedding hosted in your vineyards lands in our laps. Perfect example, this wedding from What Shanni Saw. It’s the epitome of a breathtaking Napa nuptials with breathtaking backdrops and that casual elegance we just looove, and it’s all waiting for you right here.
From What Shanni Saw… Both from and currently living in New York, the couple wanted to select a wedding destination and venue that would enable all of their friends and family to escape to somewhere beautiful. Being avid lovers of food and wine, they thought Napa Valley would be the perfect destination. The invitations were crafted to showcase a custom map of the area, the tablescapes flawlessly executed with a bright and refreshing style, Mark’s custom suit featured a personalized label in the lining, unique tomato and oyster stations for guests to dine on, and of course flowing wine made the day absolutely perfect. To cap the evening off, the couple made a witty nod to New York Cheescake by cutting a cake…made of cheese. They wanted a witty way to pair cheese with the dessert wines, and this was a fun and unique way to do just that.
