Amor Alegre~Joyous Love at JM Cellars

A repeated favorite venue during Weddings in Woodinville has been JM Cellars and it’s preferred vendor Melody Davis of MG Davis Events.  This years Weddings in Woodinville 2013 venue theme for JM Cellars as presented by Melody Davis of MG Davis Events will surely continue its popularity with … Amor Alegre ~ Joyous Love.

“The intimate gathering places and beautiful natural surroundings of JM Cellars, inspires our creation of a wedding theme reminiscent of the historic Spanish settlements of California. Central to our inspiration is the importance of family and community, and the rich traditions passed down through generations. Our colors, a mixture of browns, ambers, saffron and sapphire blue, are used throughout the ceremony, and reception areas. Textiles, as well as old world glass and pottery artfully display the use of culinary herbs, vines, and olive branches. A grand communal table under a custom designed gilted chandelier, offers elegance amid the intimacy of a roving Spanish guitarist.” Melody Davis

After studying Interior Design at The Art Institute of Seattle, I decided to put my passion for design to work and that’s when All the Flutter was born. My favorite aspect of events is helping clients who are artistic and appreciate design to bring their vision to life – whether your planning your wedding or just want an excuse to throw a fabulous event each design element (lighting, floral, paper goods, props, etc.) is so important to me. As I like to say, “it’s all in the details”. I especially love working with clients who have fun with art/design and are creative, but may not have the time, ability, or overall vision to create the beautiful details that can be created for their event.

Northwest Glamping at Matthews Winery

Introducing the Weddings in Woodinville 2013 venue theme for Matthews Winery, as invisioned by wedding planner Kelli Bielema of Shindig Events…. Northwest Glamping. 

“Matthews Estate is surrounded by all of the lush greenery that exemplifies the Northwest. With the charming bed and breakfast on site that is ensconced within the vast acreage of foliage, and steps from the tasting room, I thought to myself ‘ahh...this is my kind of camping!’  And thus, ‘glamping,’ an appropriate portmanteau of glamour and camping, was born. I meet a number of people who enjoy the outdoors, cozy lodges and upscale experiences, so why not combine these worlds for a unique event at Matthews which can provide ample ground for creativity!. “ Kelli Bielema

Novelty Hill-Januik Winery named by Seattle Met as “Best Place to Get Hitched”

Congratulations to Novelty Hill-Januik Winery for being named by Seattle Met as “Best Place to Get Hitched” in their Best Washington Wines: 22 Top Tasting Rooms reviews!  We couldn't agree more and are ecstatic to have had this winery, tasting room and founding Board member, Emily Pollock, NHJ Events Director, be apart of Weddings in Woodinville since our inception. 

“Best Place to Get Hitched

Januik (59, 77) and Novelty Hill (64) (numbers in parentheses denote wines featured Seattle Met's Top 100 Washington Wines list)

14710 Woodinville-Redmond Rd NE, Woodinville, 425-481-5502

 These sibling wineries are housed in a modern space designed to mimic the geometry of the landscape and boast soaring concrete walls and linear design elements that suggest a vineyard’s neat rows of grapes. Now that the Station Pizzeria has arrived in town, this tasting room is no longer the only place in the neighborhood to get pizza with a pour, but it remains a distinctive place to wed in Woodinville. Above, there’s the grand event space that opens on to the tasting room and gardens. Below, the glorious, intimate reserve room, with its salvaged Western red cedar table and room for 26. Outside, bocce balls and beanbags await—as well as plenty of singles to mingle with, even when a wedding party isn’t in progress. Open daily, 11 to 5.”
