A Symphony of Blossoms

March is the beginning of wine country’s bloom to spring. The vineyards, bare through the winter, begin to show signs of life, with the first buds breaking on the vines—a process known as bud break in the viticulture world. This period marks the start of the grape-growing season, turning the valley into a living tapestry of renewal and growth. The valley is alive with pink and white almond and cherry blossoms, green jeweled hills, and yellow mustard flowers appearing in the vineyards.

The Climate: A Perfect Balance

The weather in Livermore Valley during March strikes a balance between the tail end of winter’s coolness and the gentle warmth of spring. This moderate climate makes outdoor events not only possible but incredibly pleasant. Daytime temperatures allow for comfortable ceremonies under the sun, while cooler evenings invite guests to gather around cozy fire pits, under the soft glow of market lights.

In addition to other kinds of blossoms, the wisteria growing on our Sun Garden arbor begins to bloom during this time of year. It’s a gorgeous purple accent to ceremonies.
