Tuscan Sunset – a recount of Weddings in Woodinville from Sweet Pea Events

~Tuscan Sunset – a recount of Weddings in Woodinville from Sweet Pea Events is a guest blog post from Emily Shannon, Sweet Pea Events~

We wanted to create a theme that emphasized Redhook Brewery’s natural aesthetics. The bold colors, beautiful lighting and wood accents came together and fueled the desire to create a Tuscan Sunset at Redhook Brewery. We wanted guests to feel as if they had stepped out of the Pacific Northwest into a party in Italy. Redhook served some Italian favorites such as bruschetta and pasta while toasting with beer and a signature Red Vespa cocktail. 

Juniper Flowers was key to bringing the vision to life. Green, red and orange centerpieces awakened the color scheme. The head table was the show-stopper of the design. It was draped in fabric and greenery with greens and golds across the table. Olive, bay and lemons were found throughout the room. Each place setting was complete with a sprig of rosemary. 

Water and Chalk provided place cards and signage. The signs incorporate Italian to really pull the Tuscan theme together. One of my favorite details was the dessert table sign. “L’amore e dolce” (which means love is sweet) was beautifully written on fabric. The desserts provided by Street Treats were delicious. They brought their specialty ice cream while also incorporating small delicious dessert bites. 

The music was provided by Bamboo Beats. Not only did they create the perfect Italian lounge playlist, but they fully participated in the theme with their fun DJ table. Wooden crates surrounded the table with buckets of stunning greenery.

The lighting provided by Crimson Haze really pulled everything together. They provided elegant uplights and spotlights on all the key areas. However, my favorite lighting aspect was the sunset affect in the brew house. 

Pedersen’s Event Rentals provided the vineyard chairs, rustic chargers, our green and gold linens, and other various rentals. Everything was beautifully captured by Laurel McConnell Photography. 

We had such a fantastic time planning every detail with our team of rock stars. Hope these pictures take you back to Italy! 

Cheers,
Sweet Pea Events
