Some weddings feel like a family reunion that happens to have vows in the middle of it. Victoria Sarmento and Andrew Holland’s was exactly that kind, in the best way.
On a warm, golden June 27, 2026, the two of them married at Zorvino Vineyards surrounded by the people who raised and shaped them, and those people did not just attend. Andrew’s cousin Emma officiated. Victoria’s cousin made the flowers. Immediate family filled a long head table right in the thick of the room. This was a celebration built by hand, by relatives, for two people they clearly adore and you could feel it from the first note of the ceremony to the after-party that carried on down the road.
First Look
Before the ceremony, Victoria and Andrew met for a first look, and Tommy Colbert Photography — with an assistant on the drone — took them out across the property while the light was still high and warm. The vineyard rows, the stone steps under the grapevine arch, the koi pond with the fountain going behind them: Zorvino in late June gives a photographer a lot to work with, and they used all of it.
The Ceremony at the Gazebo
The ceremony was at the gazebo, up the brick path past the lavender beds, guests seated close on the lawn under a wide-open blue sky. Emma, Andrew’s cousin, officiated — and there’s a warmth to being married by someone who has been at your family’s holidays for as long as you can remember. Monogram fans kept everyone cool in the June sun.
One quiet, lovely detail from the day: after the family dance later that evening, Victoria planned to dedicate her bouquet to her mother, Dana, the kind of gesture that says everything without needing a microphone.
Cocktail Hour & the Reserva Package
As the ceremony wrapped, guests drifted onto Zorvino’s patio — red umbrellas up, the grey barn glowing behind them — for a cocktail hour that runs May through October and never fails to be one of the best hours of the day.
Victoria and Andrew booked our Reserva Wedding Package, and it earns its place in the middle of the lineup by being genuinely generous. Where a simpler package sets out one grazing display, Reserva lays out two — the Formaggi e Frutta and the full Tuscan Display, heavy with imported and domestic cheeses, charcuterie, spinach and artichoke dip, olives, and fresh breads with dipping oils. It steps up to four passed hors d’oeuvres — honey-ricotta crostini, Thai-herb chicken meatballs, beef skewers, and scallops in bacon — and carries a champagne toast, a salad, a full dinner, a custom cake, and an included late-night snack. The couple extended it further, upgrading to an open bar for the whole reception.
The Details: Vintage, Rose Gold & Candlelight
Victoria and Andrew’s vision was vintage and a little whimsical, and Zorvino’s timber-frame hall met them right there — string lights and soft uplighting under the beams, rose gold chargers and round mirrors catching candlelight down every table, and the fireplace mantel lined with pillar candles and eucalyptus. Their monogram glowed on the brick: Mr. & Mrs. Holland.
The centerpieces were a true family affair — arranged by Victoria’s cousin Mauve — soft and abundant in blush, cream, coral, and green. A basket of flip-flops waited by the dance floor for tired feet, and monogram fans doubled as keepsakes.
Dinner
Dinner opened with a Caesar salad, then the entrées: Harvest Chicken with herb stuffing — Victoria’s choice — or slow-roasted prime rib with au jus, which was Andrew’s, with butternut squash ravioli in a brown-butter cranberry-walnut gremolata for the vegetarian guests. Everything came with homemade focaccia, seasonal vegetables, and chef’s starch.
This was a room the kitchen looked after carefully — Victoria’s raw almond allergy, several sober guests who needed to know what was cooked with alcohol, and a handful of other restrictions all tracked by name and table. That quiet diligence is what lets everyone simply enjoy the night.
The Cake: Chickadee Hill Cakes
Chickadee Hill Cakes made the wedding cake, tucked right into the head table’s tablescape amid the florals, with a coffee and tea buffet served alongside and the parents served first. Later, a slider bar rolled out — mini cheeseburgers and hamburgers with special sauce and garlic fries — because a full dance floor gets hungry.
The Reception — and the After-Party
Joe Cordoniz of Get Down Tonight Entertainment ran the night. After introductions came a first dance, then a family dance, two heartfelt toasts, and cake — and from there the floor stayed busy, all the way to a last dance with every guest invited in. Victoria and Andrew shared their own first dance in front of the glowing fireplace and their name in light.
And this crowd was not done when the venue was: the celebration continued at an after-party at Margherita’s, which is the mark of a family that knows how to keep a good night going.
