A Modern Retro Viansa Winery Wedding

When Katie reached out to me to help plan her Italian-inspired Viansa Winery wedding in Sonoma, we hit it off immediately. We just kind of got each other. She envisioned lots of color, in a more traditional wine country setting, that packed a punch. She wanted modern details, with retro inspirations and undertones. We went from an aperol spritz theme – think all shades of orange and pink, to a romantic, chic palette of black, white, red, hot pink, orange and champagne – with aperol spritz as one of the signature drinks of course. This wedding day with Sam and Katie was perfect. The vibes were incredible, and Sam and Katie were a dream to work with. They were grateful, sweet, and just overall amazing, and so were their families!

Katie & Sam’s Italian-Inspired Modern Retro Viansa Winery Wedding

Other then the daring color palette, unique details, amazing florals, and thoughtful touches, Katie and Sam are what stood out to me. Sam constantly looked at Katie like she was the best thing in the world. They are so in love, you could just feel it in the air. From the time they arrived on site to the very end, they just had this sweet, chic, timeless kind of love.

Katie made all of the signage and paper goods herself. They turned out amazing. They had a custom heart logo that was giving vintage vibes that Katie made that was all over their details and was even made as their neon sign! I loved every single minute of planning Katie and Sam’s Viansa Winery wedding in Sonoma. Check out a little snippet of their wedding film by Cross My Heart Films here! This wedding goes to show that you can dare to do something different for you wedding. Choose the color palette that you’ll love, and add in details that speak to you.

Sweet Words From Katie:

“When I picked West Event Co. to be my wedding planner, I had no idea it would be THE BEST DECISION OF MY LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Planning a wedding is hard, but I seriously had the best time with Gianna. I have A LOT of crazy ideas and Gianna knew exactly how to implement them beautifully, and add things I never would have thought of! The communication was amazing, the process was smooth, and the outcome was beyond my expectations. Not only was everything absolutely perfect, but Gianna has become an amazing friend! The photos speak for themselves, West Event Co. is top notch.” – Katie
