“The Sonoma Coast is a hidden gem,” says Roque Events founder and executive producer Raquel Bickford Oranges, who, together with associate producer Carly Saber, designs romantically rustic events in the area and beyond. Here, the Napa-based planners share some of their go-to sources for a Sonoma Coast occasion, from vintners to floral studios.
“Calligrapher Sheryl Kristie Chan at Blushtype creates stunning, cohesive event branding.”
“Timber Cove is a fabulous retro resort with unforgettable views and amazing food.”
“With notes of floral rose petals and sassafras tea, Whetstone Wine Cellars’ Terra De Promissio pinot noir is an absolute favorite.”
“For each custom floral design concept we create for our clients, Emily Dreblow at Soulflower Design Studio takes our visions above and beyond what is expected.”
“We are obsessed with Encore Events Rentals for their customer service and fresh rentals each season.”
