Proposal at Quintessa Winery in Rutherford

I have driven past Quintessa many times on my way though Napa Valley, always wondering what it looked like inside- wow! It did not disappoint! Patrick couldn’t have picked a better day for his proposal at Quintessa Winery in Rutherford.

The location was in back of the property, so I got to take a fun drive in their off road jeeps, and then hung out “like a tourist” and got a lesson on their wines and the region from the tour guide while we waited for Patrick and Jennifer to arrive.

Patrick had reserved one of the open air private pavilions for a wine tasting, and it was the perfect spot for the proposal! Jennifers reaction was so sweet, and then came a surprise to all of us! After Patrick proposed and Jennifer said yes, she reached into her purse with a small box from Tiffany’s- and in it was custom cuff links with the word “yes” on them! So get this- Jennifer had a feeling the proposal was coming, so she had had the box in her purse everywhere they went for over a month, just in case! I told Patrick it looked like he had the perfect cufflinks to wear for the wedding!
