Naomi & Spencer’s Rain-Kissed Wedding at Montage Healdsburg

Planning weddings in Sonoma County means embracing the beauty of nature—and sometimes, the unpredictability of it too. Naomi & Spencer’s stunning wedding at Montage Healdsburg had all the elements we love as Wine Country wedding planners: a breathtaking venue, effortlessly stylish design inspired by Jenni Kayne, and a couple so in love it radiated through every detail. Even when unexpected rain rolled in, they took it in stride, proving that with the right mindset (and a clear tent!), magic can still happen. This is the kind of wedding that reminds us why we love what we do—creating unforgettable experiences in the heart of Sonoma wine country.

A Wedding at Montage Healdsburg – A Wine Country Gem

When it comes to stunning Wine Country wedding venues, Montage Healdsburg is hard to beat. Tucked into the rolling hills of Sonoma County, this luxury resort offers breathtaking views, thoughtful design, and a serene atmosphere that’s ideal for couples who want a sophisticated yet nature-forward wedding experience. As a wedding planner team based in Sonoma County, we love working at venues like Montage that allow couples to feel immersed in Wine Country’s beauty while enjoying modern comforts and impeccable service.

A Big Weather Plot Twist: When the Rain Shows Up

Even in sunny Northern California, the weather can surprise us. A few days before Naomi & Spencer’s big day, the forecast called for rain—and we immediately shifted into backup mode. As seasoned Wine Country wedding planners, we always have a Plan B (and sometimes a Plan C!). For this celebration, we brought in a clear-top tent for the reception. It turned out to be a showstopper: guests were protected from the elements but could still take in the vineyard views and moody skies, all while dining under glowing chandeliers. And yes—it rained during the ceremony. But instead of stress? There was laughter, happy tears, and the kind of love that makes even the rain feel like part of the magic.

The Couple: Chill, Stylish, and So In Love

Naomi & Spencer were the kind of couple every wedding planner dreams of working with—laid-back, kind, and totally in sync. When it came to navigating the last-minute weather shift, they rolled with it with grace and humor! That kind of easygoing attitude is key to a stress-free wedding day, especially with outdoor weddings in Wine Country. And, to top it all off, their connection is the real deal!! From the emotional first look to the joyful energy on the dance floor, their love lit up the entire day. And, of course, we were honored to be a part of such a special time in their lives – committing to forever together!

The Wedding at Montage Healdsburg Design: California Cool Meets Jenni Kayne Style

Naomi came to us with a clear vision: elevated, earthy, and inspired by her love of Jenni Kayne—the designer known for timeless California lifestyle aesthetics. We translated that vision into a warm, minimalist design palette that felt totally in tune with the natural surroundings of Healdsburg.

Design highlights included: Neutral-toned, organic florals with pops of yellow – so sweet!! Textured linens and natural wood tones. Thoughtfully curated rentals to match that laid-back elegance! If you’re looking for inspiration for a stylish Sonoma County wedding, this one checked all the boxes—effortlessly elegant, modern yet cozy, and completely personalized.
