A beautifully designed, intimate, and joyful celebration at the madrona with a pre-wedding movie night.

Nas and Adam’s wedding weekend at The Madrona in Healdsburg unfolded with quiet sophistication and a strong sense of personal style. Tucked into the heart of Sonoma wine country, The Madrona is a property that balances old-world character with modern design. It’s a space that’s artful, intimate, and layered in texture. It made for the perfect backdrop.

The weekend began with an alfresco movie night under the stars. An intimate and relaxed evening spent with close friends and family. Guests settled in with champagne, house-made desserts, and buttery popcorn as The Royal Tenenbaums played in the background. Nas wore a floral Oscar de la Renta piece, while Adam opted for a sharp burgundy suit that struck the perfect balance between bold and understated.

The following day, the emotional ceremony where Nas and Adam shared personal vows took place in one of The Madrona’s open garden spaces, styled with a soft floral palette of white and powdery blue. The atmosphere was relaxed but refined. Nas wore a stunning minimalist Danielle Frankel gown. 

Dinner was held in the orchards, with a long table nestled between the trees and framed by red ribbons. Guests received their table assignments on beautifully designed stationery, each paired with a fun fact about the person seated across from them which sparked conversation and was an instant hit. 

The evening continued outside with live music, a DJ, and dancing under the stars. Everything about this event felt just right… intimate, full of care and intention, impeccably designed, and above all, joyful.

Working alongside Smith + James and Studio Mondine is always an absolute dream. The level of artistry they bring, individually and together, is unmatched. Their vision, heart, and execution continue to inspire, and it’s been a true gift to now call them friends.
