Make your meeting a Sonomalicious pairing; book it in Sonoma County, Calif.
Earn your CMP – Certified Morale Pleaser – the official designation for meeting professionals who bring their groups to Sonoma County, America’s premier wine, spa and coastal destination.
Your group can become Sonomads (people prone to wandering around Sonoma County in search of new adventures) during pre- and post-tours. The place settings at your final banquet may include forkscrews, a multi-purpose utensil facilitating wine and food pairings.
Book your meeting and begin to “Speak Sonoma,” because Sonoma County is so unique, we have our own language and we want you to learn it.
Located just 30 miles north of the Golden Gate Bridge, Sonoma County offers the perfect blend of sophistication and laid-back relaxation.
A professional staff of sales managers, most of whom have Certified Meeting Professional designations, offer complimentary services. Leads are distributed to lodging according to the meeting planners’ requests and preferences. One-on-one, personalized assistance includes discussion of event space and coordination of site inspections.
