Danielle & Chris - An Intimate Wedding at MacArthur Place Hotel & Spa


Danielle and Chris’ wedding at MacArthur Place Hotel & Spa was one of those days that just felt so good to witness. They gathered eight of their closest people in Sonoma for a celebration that was intimate, emotional, and incredibly joyful. The ceremony, officiated by Danielle’s dad, was full of happy tears and laughter, unfolding quietly among the chef's cottage and historic charm of MacArthur Place. It was vintage, filmy, and deeply personal in all the best ways.

We spent the afternoon wandering the property for portraits, letting the light and movement lead, before ending the day with a candlelit delicious dinner and beautiful florals made by a friend. MacArthur Place is the kind of venue that gives space for real moments, whether you’re planning something small and intentional or a larger celebration. Danielle and Chris’ day was a perfect reflection of that :'-)
