Catrin & Pierre's Winter Wine Country Wedding

3/3/2022

Catrin and Pierre envisioned a wedding with their closest family and friends. They had the idea of marrying the day after Christmas since everyone would be in town traveling to visit for the holidays. How lovely is the idea to make a season so merry and bright, that much more memorable! 


A Classic Ceremony

The couple held a beautiful ceremony at St. Francis Solano church. The couple's ceremony was adorned with poinsettias and Christmas trees and the church had a multitude of classic details that only added to the union of Catrin and Pierre. Following the ceremony, there were plenty of grand exit photo opportunities! One of our favorites being the two exiting down the main steps which was captured beautifully by Nicole Sepulveda Photography! 

Winter Celebration

The reception that followed was hosted at Fairmont Sonoma Mission Inn & Spa. The venue being conveniently located minutes from the church, making for the perfect reception venue to continue the celebration. Fairmont Sonoma's sweeping 14-acre property is full of hidden gems for photos, gatherings, and more. Even more conveniently, the resort features 226 guest rooms and suites leaving plenty of space for Catrin and Pierre's wedding guests to end their evenings safe and soundly. 

The couple opted to host their reception in Sonoma Valley Room.
The weather was crisp and holding the event indoors was perfect. The high farmhouse ceilings with wooden beams paired with the fireplace centered in the room created the perfect atmosphere for their Winter reception. Their palette honored the cool colors of Winter without being overly holiday-themed.

A multiple-course dinner paired with Sonoma native wines filled both bellies and hearts. To finish off the meal, a cheescake-filled wedding cake made the evening an event to remember! In lieu of dancing, their bi-lingual DJ featured a variety of presentations, a slideshow about the couple, and interactive games, which their guests absolutely loved.


Catrin & Pierre's wedding helped end our 2021 on a wonderful note, we know it did the same for their guests as well. Entering into 2022 held an extra amount of hope for the pair! A Winter wedding has a certain romance about it. Maybe it's the cozy feelings, the  warm gathering of family, or the holidays, but we certainly know the conclusion of 2021 was extra cheerful and full of love :)
