August 2023 | Carneros

“A wedding weekend of pure happiness at Carneros Resort and Spa in Napa, California.”

From the moment I met Laura and Kevin, I felt like I was already a part of their family. They exude happiness and warm, caring energy. And they truly deserved the most perfect weekend to celebrate their love. After meeting online during COVID, Kevin surprised Laura by proposing while on a trip with their families. Being a geologist himself, he actually found and hand-selected her beautiful canary diamond engagement ring! Upon getting engaged, they knew they wanted to bring all of their favorite people together and selected to host everyone at Carneros Resort. 

It was immediately clear that the most important piece of this entire wedding weekend was the celebration of bringing their family together, specifically their children, “The Orbits” as Kevin and Laura like to call them. Laura had gotten inspiration from Stanley Tucci’s own wedding, as described in his book Taste, to create a beautiful dinner with courses dedicated to each of their children. 

Curated by Grace + White helped to plan and execute this incredibly special part of the evening, complete with each “Orbit” giving a speech to their parents ahead of each course being served. Following dinner, the whole party headed inside to the custom lounge and dance area where the party went non-stop until midnight! 

Favorite Things:

  1. The menu inspiration from Stanley Tucci’s book, Taste. 

  2. Wedding gift baskets with custom Yetis and Bouchon treats. 

  3. Unity ceremony - beautiful ceremony greenery piece.
