Well ladies and gentlemen, it’s official – wedding season has begun! We had the pleasure of working our first wedding of the season this past weekend and our lovely couple inspired us to expand our repertoire of ceremony seating ideas. Forget the chiavari’s and the white folding chairs and try something new – a bench, a bale or maybe nothing at all! We hope todays blog motivates you to start your wedding theme before you say – I Do!
Benches can be rustic or modern, wooden or lace, picnic or pillowed – we LOVE them all!
Covered in pillows, lace or florals. Hay bales are a fun way to add a little country to your ceremony.
Mix-matched furniture gives a new meaning to pick a seat not a side. This is a personal favorite of ours!
Too many seating options to choose from? Pick nothing – keep it casual with a blanket, quilt or pillow!
If it were possible to make a wedding night last forever – we would find a way! But at some point the wedding day must come to an end. The cake must be cut, the bar must close, Journey must be played and this small town girl knows… it’s time to go home. And after a day filled with personal touches and unique details you should be sent off in style! Here are some special send off ideas to customize your big day.
Balloons are fun, colorful and great for a daytime send off or transition from ceremony to reception location.
We LOVE sparklers! While they may take a bit of pre-meditated organization, they truly make for excellent photos. But a word of warning not all venues allow them. Which brings us to our next alternative…
Ribbon Wands! They create the fun and festive effect of sparklers but without the flame.
Lanterns are beautiful and romantic. Let your guest make a wish, light a lantern and bless your union as they float into the night sky. A favorite of mine for sure!

Who doesn’t love breathtaking views and award winning wines – we do! If you do too, Sbragia Family Vineyards just might be the perfect location for your wedding. Established in 2006 this is an up and coming venue perfect for a summer wedding and the couple seeking a rustic wine country experience. The spacious covered terrace is ideal for intimate elopements and large gatherings up to 200 guests.
Your guest will enjoy a relaxing cruise through Dry Creek Valley before arriving at Sbragia’s gates and winding up the hill to be greeted with a rich Chardonnay or a crisp Sauvignon Blanc. Backed up against Warm Springs Dam, Sbragia has duel views of both Lake Sonoma and the expansive Dry Creek Valley. Say your vows in a stunning vineyard setting and enjoy the warm summer evening dinning and dancing under a star filled sky.
