Greetings, Hive! I’m back and I’m armed with winery wedding goodness for you, straight from the heart of Napa Valley. Our 10/10/10 wedding went off beautifully and I’m so excited to tell you our story!
Mr. Barrettes and I tied the knot at V. Sattui Winery, surrounded by 120 of our nearest and dearest. Crush season in Napa is easily one of the most beautiful times of the year to visit wine country and the energy of the region was simply buzzing. Plump grapes still hung on some vines and others were freshly harvested. The smell of crush tickled your nose—it was simply magical.

Our rehearsal and dinner were on October 9th, with most of our guests arriving that morning. We drove down from Mr. Barrettes’ mom’s house in Ukiah (where we had spent a week preparing) on the 8th to ease ourselves into the weekend with a few close friends. I look forward to sharing our wedding adventure with you—grab a glass of your favorite vino as I do the same. The story is always better with wine!
Yeah!!! I have been waiting for this!! So excited to see your gorgeous wedding!
So excited for your recaps! But I may have to wait until I get home to enjoy my favorite vino - 10 am is a tad on the early side for me!

I’m very excited for your recaps! I am getting married at V. Sattui in May and can’t wait to see your pictures and how to utilized the space. I also am planning from a distance so I love seeing different ways of setting up the space.

Mrs. Barrettes, Tumon, Guam/Napa, CA Age and Occupation: 29, Dancer Fiance's Age and Occupation: 31, Licensed Building Contractor Engagement Date: November 16, 2008 Wedding Date: October 2010 Venue: V. Sattui Winery About Me: I'm an East Coast girl, living on a tiny little island in the Pacific, twirling, leaping, and shimmy-ing my way through life, and now, wedding planning! I'm equal parts nerdy and cool... okay, mostly nerdy. I love satin bows, red lipstick, black & white graphic anything, the shine of sequins and the sound of a champagne "pop". My favorite books are The Portrait of a Lady, by Henry James, and Tender is the Night, by F. Scott Fitzgerald. I can also conjure a pretty good Patronus Charm. I started my appreciation for good red wine while traveling on the high seas, and it's only fitting that my passion for wine drinking led me to my Napa-bred honey. We bonded over bottles of Cabernet on my oceanfront porch and haven't looked back since. We're sealing the deal at a winery in the Napa Valley on a 'perfect ten' of a day!
