Our first vacation together was to Napa Valley while were dating back in 2013. Then we got married in Napa in 2014. And the rest is history I guess! This is a very special place to us that has many memories tied to it🍷🍇 

Looking forward to see what the next 10 years has in store! Love doing life with you @alexgrivna 🥰😘

Our Napa Wedding

Napa Wedding - V. Sattui Winery, St. Helena #NapaWedding

In honor of our 4th Wedding Anniversary, I thought it would be fun to share all the details of our Napa Wedding! I never shared this information publicly since I didn’t have a blog back in 2014, so what better time than now? In this post, I’m spilling all of the major details including which vendors we worked with. If you know anyone who is thinking of a wine country wedding, be sure to share this with them!

It was the most magical day ever. I love looking back at our photos and reminiscing about this day. Looking back, I wouldn’t have done anything differently. It really was a fairytale wedding, and I wish we could go back and do it all over again. Does anyone else feel that way about their wedding day?

I hope you enjoyed this post, and I hope it’s helpful if you are planning a wine country wedding of your own. I know I’m bias, but I think it’s one of the best destinations out there. Cheers!
