Ava & Noah

After five years, a dog, and more coffee than either of us should admit to, we're getting married. We'd love for you to be there. Here's everything you'll need — our story, the details, and how to RSVP.

The short version of how we got here, told in pictures — from a rainy first coffee to an engagement on the coast. Tap any collection to see the whole set.

The Details

Ceremony & Reception

One venue, one unforgettable evening. Everything happens at Rosewood Estate — here's the where, the when, and what to wear.

The Ceremony

4:00 PM in the olive grove at Rosewood Estate, 1420 Vineyard Lane, Healdsburg. Please arrive by 3:30 so we can begin right on time — the walk from parking is short and shaded, and ushers will help you find a seat.

The Reception

Dinner, toasts and dancing follow immediately on the terrace, just steps from the ceremony. Expect a seated dinner, an open bar, and a dance floor that stays open until midnight — no need to travel between venues.

Dress Code

Garden formal. Think linen suits and long dresses in soft, warm tones. The ground is grass and gravel, so kind heels — or a stylish flat — will serve you better than a stiletto. Evenings cool quickly here, so bring a light layer.

Order of the day

The Schedule

A relaxed evening with just enough of a plan. Here's roughly how the day will unfold, from the first arrivals to the last dance.

  1. 01

    3:30 PM · Arrival & seating

    Doors open and welcome drinks are poured. Follow the signs from the car park to the olive grove, sign our guest book on the way in, and settle into a seat. Come a little early — we'd rather see you relaxed than rushing.

  2. 02

    4:00 PM · The ceremony

    Short and heartfelt, about thirty minutes under the trees. There will be a reading, a few promises we've been quietly practising, and — if all goes to plan — not too many tears. This is an unplugged ceremony, so please keep phones tucked away.

  3. 03

    5:00 PM · Cocktails & photos

    While we steal away for a handful of portraits, enjoy canapés and drinks on the lawn. There's a lawn-games corner, a signature cocktail named after our dog, and plenty of shade to catch up with old friends.

  4. 04

    6:30 PM · Dinner & dancing

    A seated three-course dinner, toasts you may or may not have been warned about, then the first dance and the floor opens for everyone. The band plays until midnight, with a late-night snack to see you through.

Kind words

From the wedding party

I've watched these two become the calmest, kindest version of themselves around each other. If you know them, you already know: this was always going to happen.

Noah asked me to keep the ring safe for one afternoon and I aged five years. Worth every grey hair. Wait until you hear the speech.
Marcus T.·Best man
From the first dinner she brought him home to, we knew. We could not be happier to welcome Noah into the family — come celebrate with us.
