Miryem and Michael wanted a modern, elegant wedding and loved the vibe of the very Italian Villa feel of the Allegretto Vineyard Resort.
Their ceremony took place in the resort’s center courtyard in front of the fountain. The bride wanted to create a memorable moment as she walked toward the alter, so instead of following the same path as the rest of the wedding party, she entered from the other side of the courtyard descending down the staircase and walking down the path behind the fountain to meet her groom. The bride’s entrance was not the only memorable moment though; the ring bearer had the rings in a special container that resembled a baseball, as the couple both share a love of the San Francisco Giants, and he threw the “baseball” to Michael in lieu of walking it all the way down the aisle!
The reception took place in the Olive Orchard of the spa quad with the tablescapes featuring the bride and groom’s color scheme of black and white, with gold finishings and small mirror tags as place cards. We loved the unique touch of having the white floral arrangements in gold cages. After the couple took their sunset photos, the bride and family changed into traditional Kurdish clothing and reentered the quad to Kurdish music! There was even live Kurdish singing provided by a family member! Congratulations Gattuccios!

Love Letter: “Amazing team! I cannot say enough good things about Amanda and the whole AHE team. I was a nervous planner and liked to double and triple check everything, and the ladies always responded promptly, helped with any questions or needs, helped me find any vendors I still needed to lock down, gave their honest opinions when I really needed it, and most of all they made the wedding day run so so smooth. If you are debating, I would say the AHE team is worth every dollar spent. Their organization, communication, and planning tools make everything so easy so that the planning stress never becomes too much. We are so so grateful to them for making our wedding day amazing.” – Miryem & Michael, Bride and Groom.
