Facilities and Capacity
Standing for 99 years before its major 2021 renovation, the Stavrand boasts an ageless, vintage aesthetic alongside its modern amenities. Flourishing greenery and gardens surround the inn, to ensure that each part of the estate can act as a breathtaking space for photo sessions. Redwoods, fruit trees, and mature conifers surround the space, to give your special day both a sense of privacy and a visually-rich atmosphere. An elegant courtyard complete with welcoming firepits gives arriving guests a warm, relaxed greeting before they arrive at the ceremony and reception. The main house and the other two guestroom buildings encircling the courtyard feature a total of 21 guest rooms to choose from, to ensure that you are well-rested and energized for your life-changing event. Each building offers lounge furniture and upscale-yet-inviting decor, to make soon-to-be-weds and their entourage feel right at home. The historic Belden House serves as the heart of the property, and showcases two grand wood-burning fireplaces that create the perfect atmosphere for breakfast, relaxing with a book or board game, or even enjoying a memorable rehearsal dinner. At the corner of the estate, elegant gates lead to the Chef’s Meadow, an outdoor space that gives romantic ceremonies a panoramic backdrop as guests watch the happy couple exchange their vows. For indoor receptions, the onsite restaurant is an intimate space where guests can dine and dance underneath a modern, wrought iron chandelier. Sliding glass doors provide an overlook from the restaurant to the center courtyard and bathe your event in plenty of natural light.

Emily grew up in Maine, the State whose motto is "The Way Life Should Be" -- to which we would add a minor asterix regarding climate...
After fleeing toward warmth and palm trees, Emily met her own hubby, Sam, while they were students at Pomona College down in Claremont, California.
After a year of struggling to find her place in a corporate cubicle, Emily followed an inkling that she'd thrive in the travel industry. At 23, she moved to San Francisco and joined Joie de Vivre Hospitality (JDV) as a front desk host, and then headed over to Kimpton Hotels & Restaurants, where she moved through the ranks at the Prescott, Argonaut, and Buchanan hotels.
The COVID crisis brought a silver lining to our GM: the opportunity to purchase, completely overhaul, and launch her very own hotel! This venture is Emily's chance to apply her prior GM (and concierge) experience to catapult this property to a new level, featuring a sleek and elegant-yet-playful new design -- and best-in-class service.
The intimate size of this new boutique property allows Emily and her business partner, Santiago, to focus on each guest, each bride, and each groom. Nothing is a "set package," and she delights in tailoring the hotel's offerings to meet the unique needs of each couple (and their family).
Book an appointment with Emily to learn more about how she and her team can be your "one stop shop" for an authentic wine country wedding rooted in beautiful land, exceptional food, and a warm, friendly approach that reflects the best of Sonoma!
Kayla's background in consulting enables her to leverage an interpersonal approach to best assist couples. She has your interests at heart and will create thoughtful examples of how the Stavrand can successfully provide what you are looking for.
