Janice Twomey

Having worked in luxury hotel and restaurant management on both coasts, I was fortunate to work with some of America’s most talented Chefs. Later in my career, I went back to school to become a Certified Wedding & Event Planner, specializing in green, eco-chic event planning. Inspired by my passion for service and hospitality, my meticulous eye for detail and my intuitive ability to create one of a kind events, Rue 29 Napa Valley was born.

I was raised in Canada and very lucky to start my career in hospitality with The Four Seasons Hotel in Vancouver. The lessons I learned there, and later with Danny Meyer in New York City, about service and hospitality were immeasurable. I have worked with the best and brightest and learned from them all – Tom Colicchio, Jeremiah Tower, Wolfgang Puck, Michael Mina, Robert DeNiro and Cindy Pawlcyn. The one trait they all have in common, is their devotion and dedication to be the best they can be each and every day. It is a quality I share and a pledge that I make to each of my clients.

My devotion to mindful and conscious living and my commitment to the environment and the planet have evolved over the years.  My passion for sustainable, organic, local farm-to-fork cuisine is now the driving force behind my success as a wedding planner in Napa Valley. The unique opportunity we have in Napa Valley to create a green/eco wedding for our clients year round, all sourced within a 50 mile radius, is unparalleled in our country. If you are interested in lowering your carbon footprint, please know that we are here to assist you in all kinds of creative, fun and eco-friendly ways. #GoGreen!

It is a sacred privilege and honor to be asked to assist with a wedding, whether by the couple or their family. It is an honor to be granted their trust and something that that we take very seriously at Rue 29 Napa Valley. Our weddings and events are truly a labor of love. No two couples are alike and no two weddings are alike. We strive to create unique, one of a kind weddings that are a true, authentic representation of our client’s love and devotion to one another.

Cheers!
