The Cole Drake Story
Imagine planning a wedding or corporate retreat where custom experiences allow each guest to feel that their needs were anticipated before they arose. We infinitely believe that refined service should be centric to every event. By taking the time to understand and to know our clients individually, we are able to curate the best hand-picked team of creative professionals to showcase the clients’ high level of individuality. We also believe that the path to event day is more than a series of checkboxes and to-do’s but should be one of an experience.
We are a diverse team of planners in Wine Country with a combined experience of more than twenty five years of wedding and event design/production, restaurant and luxury hotel management. We are professed foodies with a penchant for using levity to navigate the planning process. We are surrounded by the most inspiring vistas (in our humble opinion), some of the best cuisine (#fact) and the most creative people (nutty artisans who have more fun than should be legal). We are constant students in our industry – always striving for further knowledge and ideas. We deliver exquisite events and experiences that are keenly focused on telling a story and alluring your five senses.
Our core philosophy is more is just more…it’s NOT better. Overdoing anything from food to event design is just overwhelming. Keeping things authentic to who you are as a couple is key. We focus on creating a sensory story within your event, showcasing your story, your lives, your vision, in a simply beautiful, inventive way.
