An article on HeraldNet tells the challenge of wineries wanting to operate in Everett and how city codes are in conflict with these businesses. There is a chance that the city may revise the codes to be more wine friendly.

Another fabulous venue on the Weddings in Woodinville tour was JM Cellars. I love how you look out over the valley from JM Cellars. Peggy Bigelow tells me it’s the perfect spot for a second wedding or to renew your vows! I think it would also be great for a smaller, more intimate 
first wedding. The event planner host for JM Cellars was Melody G. Davis of MG Davis Events. There was beautiful gold table set up inside the tasting room. The food was a Bistecca with bread salad and tomatoes and a Crab Roll on a bun, by Tom Douglas Catering, which was good with the 2007 Syrah that was served. There were also chocolates by Sweets, Treats, & Designs and hand crafted soap by Seattle Sundries for wedding favors. There was also an outside tent set up with Japanese lanterns.
Weddings in Woodinville was sponsored by Seattle Bride Magazine, Butler Valet & Transportation, Banquet Events, Event Success, MG Davis Events, and Taylor’d Events by Jennifer. You can see a list of vendors at Weddings in Woodinville. The 
next Weddings in Woodinville is scheduled for Sunday, January 30th, 2011.

An article in the Tri-City Herald talks about how the wine industry of Washington seems to be immune to the current economic downturn. It’s an industry in the state that is doing very well. Are you drinking more to help out?

The Weddings in Woodinville tour started off at Columbia Winery on Sunday morning. This venue was hosted by Suzanne Linich of Poised Events. The recently redecorated ballroom gives brides to be a blank canvas to paint on with their own imagination. There was so much to look at from Ice Sculptures by Amazing Ice, flower arrangements, personalized engraving by Northwest Engraving, invitations, and the fabulous food by Daniel’s Catering. I did start off with a splash of Covey Run Ice wine and then headed over to the food. I loved the Green Tea Salmon, Rueben sandwiches, and the Ahi appetizers. I didn’t get to the Bananas Foster but it looked like a popular table. If you were not sure about picking out colors and table arrangements there was certainly quite a few to choose from in this room. They were all very elegant. [click to continue…]

I was invited to attend the Weddings in Woodinville tour on Sunday. It was a special event that gave couples and their families and friends an opportunity to tour to six fully-decorated venues and see what they could look like for their wedding or reception and meet with industry professionals to help make their day extra special. The six stops on the tour were Columbia Winery, DeLille Cellars, JM Cellars, Novelty Hill/Januik Winery, Russell’s Barn, and Willows Lodge. About 60 vendors were sprinkled through the six locations, and there was an opportunity to taste through about 18 wines. Transportation was provided by Butler Transportation and Valet, Rare Form Limousine, and Seattle Limousine. The starting point was at Columbia Winery and when you were ready you just hopped into a luxury bus or limo to go to the next location. [click to continue…]
