What a dreamy winter wedding day for Kaitlin and Nick! Located in the heart of wine country, Montage Healdsburg was the perfect venue for their romantic and elegant celebration.

The winter-inspired florals added so much warmth to the overall aesthetic of the day. From the elegant table settings to their initials on orange peels, every aspect of the day was carefully considered and executed flawlessly.
