We loved planning this laid back welcome party, right down the street from our studio in Carmel Valley Village, at Cowgirl Winery & Corkscrew Cafe restaurant. We used the property for a multi event evening, with a small intimate family style rehearsal dinner, that rolled into a welcome party cocktail hour. Our design was inspired by the couples love of European summer vacations, and fit the venue perfectly. Think wood fired pizza, gorgonzola and pear salads, hugo & aperol spritz, & ending the night with lemon meringue mini tarts & tiramisu cups. The guest fashion was on point, and the bride and groom got to spend time interacting with everyone on a more intimate level before the wedding day. Highly recommend! Drop us a note if you are looking to plan a similar welcome party in Carmel or Carmel Valley.

Family toasts during dinner and in between courses made the perfect start to this Friday night. The venue tables and chairs, wooden accent furniture, and carmel valley charm make this one of our favorite venues in the village. We love bringing our clients vision to life with our in house planning & design.
