A Timeless Celebration: Katherine and Matt’s Wedding at Tre Posti

September 21 , 2025

On September 21, 2024—“the twenty-first night of September”—Katherine and Matt Heath celebrated their love in a stunning wedding at Tre Posti in St. Helena, California. Surrounded by the charm of Napa Valley, their intimate gathering of 70 guests reflected their personalities and shared journey, making the day uniquely their own.

Katherine’s gown was nothing short of extraordinary. After admiring elements from several designs, she collaborated with Pnina Tornai’s team to create a custom gown that embodied her vision. Purchased from the iconic Kleinfeld Bridal in New York City, the gown was a perfect blend of elegance and individuality. “I wanted to make sure my dress had everything I loved,” Katherine shared. “Working with Pnina Tornai’s team allowed me to create something truly special.”

One of the most cherished moments of the day was dinner at the head table. Seated next to Matt and their closest friends, Katherine looked out over their guests as they enjoyed the incredible cuisine from Tre Posti. “It was such a nice moment knowing everything was going perfectly,” she said. The couple intentionally kept their guest list small to ensure they could spend quality time with each attendee, creating an atmosphere of warmth and connection.

Katherine’s gown held deep sentimental value, not just as a symbol of her special day but also as a future heirloom. Inspired by her mother, who transformed fabric from her own wedding dress into a handmade purse Katherine carried at the wedding, she decided to preserve her gown for future generations. “Elegance Preserved came highly recommended by Tailor Maid SF, who did my alterations,” Katherine explained. Their reputation for meticulous care and expertise in wedding dress preservation gave her confidence that her custom gown would remain as beautiful as the day she wore it.

To protect her gown for years to come, Katherine chose one of Elegance Preserved’s wedding dress preservation boxes. These elegant chests ensure that delicate fabrics and intricate details are safeguarded, offering not only protection but also a beautiful way to honor a piece of family history.
