Next stop on the Sonoma destination wedding trip is B.R. Cohn Winery and Olive Oil Company. The owners of this winery are also managers of the band The Doobie Brothers. Nestled in the middle of the Sonoma Valley, this winery was definitely one of my favorites.
They have several event venue options: The Terrace, Oak Hill, Amphitheater, Olive Grove, and the Poolside Patio. They can accommodate anywhere from 10-250 guest depending on the venue you choose. Pricing ranges from $4,500 (Mon-Thur/150 guests) to $9,000 (Sat. 201-250 guests).
I was able to talk with the site coordinator, Paula, and go on a tour of the venues. The scenery is breathtaking and I was especially impressed by the Oak Hill site. To get out there, you would have to shuttle your guests and there is no amplification allowed, but it is very peaceful and enchanting, the perfect fairytale wedding site! The bridal suite is also one of the largest suites I have seen. Its a little cottage with a kitchenette and there is a very sweet garden outside the front door.
Of course the important part is the wine, which you are required to have at your event for a discounted rate. The Doobie Red is one of their Bordeaux style blends. Created to honor four generations of music, this is a great table wine that your guests will enjoy. The olive oils available are incredible. So many selections! The Meyer lemon olive oil was my favorite.
Another reason why I really liked this venue, is its dog friendly! When we pulled up we were greeted by the winery dog and a very wet door stop he was playing fetch with! It was definitely one of my favorites on the trip. There is so much variety and you can do so much with it. Definitely check it out for corporate events, weddings, birthday parties or just to have a good time!
