Columbia Winery
Theme Décor/Planner: Erin Lindeman, Lindeman Events

"The Royal Gardens"

Come see for yourself how we transform Columbia Winery’s ballroom into ‘The Royal Gardens.’  This is a great illustration of how to turn a classic elegant room into a chic and personalized wedding reception without having to spend a fortune.  The use of rented trees, dramatic draping and lighting will be the backdrop of this majestic soirée.  Wish a rich selection of champagnes and a dash of black crystal chandeliers, we have given the traditional palette more of a modern sparkle.

We will also be showcasing the latest wedding dress trends along with a host of other talented vendors.   So come delight your senses by savoring the delicious food, fine wines and visual decadence at Columbia Winery.

Matthews Estate
Theme Décor/Planner: BreeAnn Gale, Pink Blossom Events 

"Love Is In The Air"

When designing the theme for Matthews Estate for this year’s event we wanted to utilize both the Tasting Room and Estate House but making sure we kept with the same theme throughout. Succulents with pops of robin’s egg blue and burgundy led the way to a romantic rehearsal dinner in the Tasting Room and an elegant picnic wedding reception up at the Estate House.  As you tour Matthews Estate allow yourself to envision not only your wedding day but also the perfect location for your rehearsal dinner! The inspiration board incorporate both the inspiration for the rehearsal dinner in the Tasting Room and the elegant picnic reception up at the Estate House.

Novelty Hill/Januik Winery
Theme Décor/Planner: Jennifer Taylor, Taylor'd Events by Jennifer

“Chandelier Lounge”

My inspiration for my design was “The Chandelier” at the Cosmopolitan Hotel in Las Vegas.  I loved all the crystal and glass being used.  I wanted to bring glitter and glamour to the modern feel of Novelty Hill-Januik Winery.  The reason I chose to do a reception style with soft seating is to showcase the little used Reception style, it is a great way to mix and mingle with your guests.

JM Cellars
Theme Décor/Planner: Melody Davis, MG Davis Events

"Contemporary Classic Vines"

The beautiful natural surroundings of JM Cellars, and the unique, romantic gathering places that the winery offers, inspired our creation this year of a wedding that portrays contrasting elements of nature and nurture . . . of comfort and style.  We've blended neutral color hues and textures found in the natural world, with the classic sophistication of porcelain, silver, and crystal.  Hanging over a grand, communal pine table is a custom designed chandelier that artfully joins old world architecture and vines with sparkling glass.  The tablescape beneath displays a mélange of timeworn classics alongside modern elements and romantic flowers. 

Our ceremony will be presented in two locations: Amid the copper doors in the Barrel Room and under the rustic birch arbor on the lower terrace. 

Both indoor and outdoor spaces reflect the importance of friends and family, encouraging conversation and the nurturing of community.

"Vibrant-Elegant-Garden Theme"

V-E-G will be highlighting bright Oranges and Greens as they are the opposite sides of the color wheel and will create the effect and mood we are looking for.

The gold accents will add a touch of elegance and glamour to the garden.  Using Obelisks, herbs, floral and textured linens our garden wedding will fit right in with the sheep on this gorgeous ten acre property.    

Willows Lodge
Theme Décor/Planner: Janel Schlit, Occasions, LLC

“Woodland Glamour”

Our superior design team has created a lush and romantic experience that encompasses the Northwest feel of the lodge with pure glamour!  Between Aria Style and Occasions, LLC what more would you expect?!  To say the least, we love this venue and this theme for our tour for Weddings in Woodinville 2012.  From the sparkle of the crystals to the lighted branches this project has let us dive into uncharted territory.  We love the idea of combining casual elegance to over top glamour to achieve pure rustic elegance!   

We are looking forward to showing off our creativity, partnership and of course passion for weddings!

DeLille Cellars

Theme Décor/Planner: Jacky Grotle, Event Success – nweventsuccess.com

When designing the theme for DeLille Cellars, we wanted to create a feel of elegance and richness… a little bit sexy but certainly deep with texture —Voila... Evening Passion! It’s a very French feel, and we all know that the French are notorious for decadence, beauty and glamour!

Incorporating a French theme when planning a wedding is a fantastic way to convey the romance and love the bride and groom wish to share with their guests. A traditional French wedding ceremony includes bright and regal colors like royal blues, purples and reds. Topped off with a string quartet playing classic French music and you’ve created an ambience unlike any other! It’s rich with romantic elements that enhance the beauty of any wedding regardless of the home country of the bride and groom.

JM Cellars

Theme Décor/Planner: Melody Davis, MG Davis Events – mgdavisevents.com

Our vision for JM Cellars this year is to create a luxe, sophisticated and dreamy wedding which relates to the winery in a soulful and inviting manner. To achieve this we have combined old as well as new elements to create a fresh and fashionable feel.  For decoration, Scarlet Blooms uses a color palette in shades of gold, slate, creamy white and metallic tones, creating a warm and romantic setting. The interior spaces of the winery feature a formal look with elegant centerpieces, luxurious linen and a table showcasing beautiful found objects which truly command a revival. The outdoor areas illustrate the ability to host an elegant wedding while having a fun party atmosphere beneath the glow of festival lights. To compliment the casual nature of the winery, we give nod to the Indie DIY movement by adding hand crafted touches which create a warm and meaningful setting for guests.

Novelty Hill • Januik Winery

Theme Décor/Planner: Kirstie Warren, Simply Wed – simplywed.com

The design theme for Novelty Hill-Januik Winery is titled “Whimsy & Wit,” and shows everyone that you can have a little fun when planning and designing your wedding! Vintage-Mod touches are showcased along with details that can be created yourself for that personal touch. The mixing and matching of patterns and found items showcase the very definition of thinking outside the “wedding box”. The use of bright and punchy colors such as Poppy, Aqua and Marigold makes this design one that will bring joy to any celebration!

Russell’s – The Barn

Theme Décor/Planner: Stephanie Wilson, Every Last Detail – ELDWeddings.net

Escape to the natural and relaxing setting of Russell’s Barn!

Downstairs at Russell’s, Stephanie and Anna’s Flowers worked with the colors and elements of the space and used different tones of ivory, bronze and plum. This creates a lush setting which is appropriately named “Northwest Elegance”. You will walk into a rustic and cozy atmosphere complete with exposed wood beams and soft and romantic floral and linens.

The Loft at Russell’s is a dramatic and spacious setting which beautifully accommodates large décor. PJ Hummel and Co. will delight you with their design and decor for The Loft. PJ’s glistening winter design is very versatile and well-suited for weddings from November through March. The Loft has a great structural design. PJ’s glittering bare branch trees work brilliantly with the unpainted setting and sparkle with the color of led lighting. It is an experience that is difficult to convey in pictures and we are excited to share the magic in person!
