One of our brides lives in California and her soon-to-be husband has a family vineyard in the Napa Valley. So when she planned her Bachelorette Weekend, it seemed like the perfect spot! She was kind of enough to share the details, so you too can plan an ideal weekend for your bachelorette or just a trip with friends. Saturday started with a limo tour of a few vineyards

Dinner after a full day of sampling wines was held at the house looking over the family's vineyard. The menu included paella from a recipe by Gwenyth Paltrow and her good pal, Mario Batali.

Paired with another spanish classic - SANGRIA.
Sunday everyone headed to the HOTEL HEALDSBURG for massages at their luxurious spa
Followed by shopping in town
The weekend concluded at one of the best restaurants in the area, Charlie Palmer's DRY CREEK KITCHEN
Dinner was served in the private wine library and the group enjoyed a selection of wines from the vineyards they visited on Saturday.
A perfect weekend!
DREAM BACHLORETTE PARTY IN MY FAVORITE PLACE ON EARTH!!!!!!!! So funny because just last night over dinner, I pronounced to my hubby that when our youngest goes off to college, I want to relocate to Napa and be bi coastal...love it so much there! And this party is the ultimate in my book, a beautiful restaurant, all the wineries are fabulous and all the quaint down towns are picture perfect! Perfect party indeed!!
ReplyDeletePS Definitely bookmarking this post for my future daughter in laws party, whoever that might be!
Brings back such great memories, as Grant and I spent a lot of time in Napa in our first year of marriage, as we were living in San Fran. Love all her picks!!!

Napa is one of my favorite places in the world and not only for the wine! We just sent a bouquet to l'Auberge du Soleil for review and hope to visit in the fall... Sounds like this was a perfect party indeed!
