Tips and Advice
Visit with your venue representative often. Take the time to visit in person reviewing the site, visualize the procession of your event so that you are comfortable with the flow of the event. It is well worth time taken from our busy schedules to be certain the wedding day is just as you thought it would be. I  encourage the bride and groom and their families to join us at the winery for some of our many events so that they can see how the staff interacts with the customers  and taste the works of our chef staff.

Ask all of your questions no matter how trival you think they are you are the customer.

On the day of your wedding rehearsal and wedding you and the groom should make it a priority to stop frequently and together take a quiet moment to reflect on the event and the guest so that you have the lasting memory of their presence on this special days.
