Best Sonoma & Napa Wine Country Venues for an Outdoor Wedding

Picture it now: a Tuscan-inspired villa, rolling hills with green leafy vines, long tables lit by tapered candles with all your loved ones enjoying a crisp glass of rosé… ahh. Sounds like the perfect winery wedding to me!

If you’re starting to plan for your 2024 wedding in Napa or Sonoma (or Healdsburg!) here are some of my favorite wedding venues for your consideration.

MacArthur Place, Sonoma

Highlights: an idyllic and understated Sonoma hotel, spa, and culinary oasis. Say "I do" on the elegantly landscaped lawn, followed by photos among the historic farm buildings, winding paths, and lush gardens. MacArthur Place Hotel can host indoor/outdoor receptions with an easy flow between chic salons and airy patios.

Tre Posti, St. Helena

Highlights: You’d be hard pressed to find a more picture-perfect Wine Country venue location than Tre Posti. This remarkable private event venue is just south of St. Helena’s charming downtown and minutes from Napa’s most popular wineries, but it has a “secret hideaway” feel enhanced by mature trees, quiet walkways, and blooming gardens.
