Northern California

Boasting some of the most beautiful geography in the country, Northern California is a wonderful destination for a wedding. Romantic vineyards, ocean views and rustic ranches are just a sample of the possible settings for your big day. Here’s a glimpse at some of our favorite venues in our Bay Area and wine country markets.
Sonoma county
Being California wine country's largest wine producer, Sonoma County it is a popular destination for weddings at sprawling vineyards and romantic wineries. The land out here is also widely used for agriculture and pasturage, so it is a great place to find unique, rustic ranch venues. The Russian River is another beautiful natural element to incorporate into an outdoorsy wedding.
