Expert wedding planners help orchestrate décor placement, candles, rose petals, band sound and lighting and the champagne toasts. Take comfort in Veritas’ 10 to 1 guest-to-staff ratio and attentive service. These designated wedding specialists make your vision a streamlined and stress-free reality.
Florals & Decor
Complement Veritas’ manicured grounds, panoramic vineyards and verdant cascading mountain views with florals that light up your celebration. Natural native blooms highlight the 250-acre farm, wrapping up and around the ceremony archway and adorning wine barrels at your countryside aisle entrance. Gather with your bridal party bouquets under rising trees, outfit the elegant wooden tasting room deck with colorful arrangements and craft your Saddleback Hall reception with artful floral centerpieces.
Catering & Bar Services
Work directly with Veritas’ executive chef to create a menu that will have guests raving. Culinary masterpieces are built around fine local ingredients carefully paired with Veritas wines and signature cocktails. Begin with mini crab cakes and Virginia ham biscuit passed hors d’oeuvres. Roll into entrees of seared scallops, herbs de Provence chicken and steak au poivre with smoked blue cheese crumble. Choose from a variety of beverage packages and savor celebratory champagne toasts.
Tableware, Linens & Rentals
Veritas wedding packages include décor and design elements spanning bistro and twinkle lighting, mahogany Chivari chairs, white ceremony chairs, romantic aged barrels, cocktail tables, moveable bars, dinnerware, round tables and elaborate farm tables for a special memorable dinner set up. Use the venue’s provided white or ivory linens and napkins or call in your own vintage or pastel hued linens and drapery to counterpoise detailed flower arrangements.
