Get Married at the Meritage and Keep It Green

Wedding bells are chiming at the Meritage!  Announcing our exciting new wedding package preferences made for eco-conscious brides and grooms.  Everything can be green – even your gorgeous white wedding gown!  (Made from organic silk of course.) 

Imagine getting married in the heart of Mother Earth in the Meritage Estate Cave.  Your romantic ceremony can be illuminated by organic soy or beeswax candles with gorgeous flowers provided by local Farmers’ Markets. 

The Meritage Resort can cater your reception with organic, local farm-fresh ingredients. Executive Chef Laurent Berthon combines menu items like the finest, freshest cheeses from Mendocino, Sonoma and Humboldt, as well as sweet honeycomb from Santa Rosa. The Chef uses only fresh herbs for all wedding dishes. Brides and grooms can even choose to serve organic wines from wineries like Grigich, Benziger and Frog’s Leap for guests.

A typical wedding reception meal for 100 guests requires hundreds of plates, glasses and cloth napkins to be washed, which translates into thousands of gallons of water used to wash them. The Meritage offers brides a solution to forgo the formal plates and linens and opt instead for chic picnic-style meals using materials that are not destined to clog landfills. The Meritage also encourages couples to use biodegradable silverware, green ware cups and plates, even napkins made from recyclable material. 

The Meritage Resort and Spa is committed to preserving the awe-inspiring environment that is cherished in Napa, while making your wedding an unforgettable experience. Click here to start planning your special day.
