How to Plan the Perfect Napa Valley Elopement

Getting married is something many women dream about their entire lives. Having spent years going over the romantic scenarios in their heads, many women envision about a big lavish wedding with hundreds of friends and family present. Others want to keep that special moment low-key and private and see themselves saying “I do,” with just their fiancé or perhaps a very small group of family and friends. A growing number of brides are choosing the latter and a perfectly lovely place for couples to elope in the Northern California Wine Country is Churchill Manor in Napa.

Whether you plan to celebrate with family or it’s just the two of you, you’ll still want to learn about all of the incredible things to do after your Napa Valley Elopement. Download our free Vacation Guide for insider information on the best things to see and do as a newly married couple!

How to Plan the Perfect Napa Valley Elopement

The Churchill Manor is a beautiful circa-1889 stately mansion surrounded by expansive lush lawn and gardens. The mansion itself is gorgeous, featuring beautiful redwood moldings, columns, and magnificent European antiques. The largest verandah in Napa wraps around the front portion of the house with an incredible view of the impeccable gardens brimming with seasonal color.

All you have to do to plan your spring wedding in Napa is to make your reservation at Churchill Manor and we will take care of the rest. Churchill Manor offers two elopement packages for your convenience, the Simply Elegant Elopement Package and the Ultimate Intimate Elopement Package.

Once you arrive at the bed and breakfast, you will take some time to explore the property and decide where you would like to exchange your vows. Three locations offer the perfect backdrop: beside the fountain in the front garden, on the rotunda of the covered veranda overlooking the gardens, or fireside within the mansion’s ornate parlors.
