our wedding

rehearsal picnic — landmark vineyard
Landmark Vineyard was originally founded in Windsor, Sonoma County in 1974. It was a small family winery that was slowly being smothered by urban sprawl. But the facility was saved in 1989, when Damaris Deere Ethridge, the great, great, granddaughter of John Deere, visited wine country with a vision. Damaris believed Landmark could be a small jewel of a winery, producing limited amounts of the world's finest Chardonnay. She purchased Landmark and relocated the facility from Windsor to Kenwood.

wedding — b.r. cohn winery
Founded by Bruce Cohn in 1984, B.R. Cohn Winery is located in the heart of Sonoma Valley. Bruce Cohn bought the land now known as Olive Hill Estate Vineyards in 1974. The small family-operated winery is surrounded by the 90-acre Olive Hill Estate Vineyards, where soils warmed by underground natural hot springs and gentle ocean breezes create a unique microclimate resulting in ideal growing conditions for ultra-premium Cabernet Sauvignon.
