WELCOME DINNER, MONTAGE HEALDSBURG

Photography JOSE VILLA

A welcome dinner for esteemed industry colleagues was hosted at the spectacular Montage Healdsburg and designed in collaboration with my friend Blake Sams. For this first event, the concept was inspired by the canopy of four large trees called The Grove on site at this beautiful property. Guests were welcomed to a serene setting and sat at one long table that encouraged lively connection. The dark tabletop palette, cane and black lounge settings and custom bar juxtaposed the light and airy environment. Guests dined together over grilled stone fruit and heirloom tomato salad, Hokkaido scallops and roasted duck with curated wine pairings for each course. Elan Artists entertained us with a sensational acoustic group, the perfect way to kick off an immersive two-day Napa Valley experience to come.
