The History and Story Behind The Highlands Estate
It all started when…
Gard & Whitney
After a year and a half designing, building and going through the permit process we can say: We did it! Our modern and rustic wedding venue with over 20 acres offers a weekend wedding site with views of our vineyards as well as a fully heated and air-conditioned barn for year-round celebrations providing the right mix of natural beauty and classic elegance. Let us help you create your perfect day here at The Highlands Estate!
Gard and Whitney had been visiting wine country from their home in Los Angeles for many years, always dreaming of a way to eventually move there.
Daisy, our Wire Fox Terrier
Several years back Gard’s sister and now husband spent a week in the northern California wine country area looking for a private wedding location with vineyards, vistas and a barn. After spending countless hours searching the internet and driving over 500 miles, they discovered that it was actually impossible to find: they ended up with a location 2 hours south of San Francisco with no barn and no vistas! It was this experience that sparked the idea to purchase a property in wine country where they could create a wedding venue with a barn, vineyards and magnificent vistas all while living on our property. Who wouldn’t want to live in wine country?
