{Lovely Vineyard Wedding} Melissa & Melbs

Happy Wedding Wednesday!

After a short summer break, our Wedding Wednesday feature is back.  & back with a whole lot of pretty!  Oh, there is a ceremony with an amazing view.  There are the most beautiful white flowers.  There is a dreamy, flowy wedding gown.  & much, much more!  Paul Retherford Wedding Photography shows us the beauty:  

Melissa & Melbs got married on May 10 in Portola, California at Thomas Fogarty Winery in the Santa Cruz Mountains.  Their wedding day dawned sunny & gorgeous, just perfect for highlighting the incredible San Francisco to San Jose views.  The wedding ceremony featured those sweeping views, as well a white rose petal aisle & a unique lantern altar made by the Groom's father.  The Bride floated down the aisle, wearing her chiffon gown & carrying her perfect white bridal bouque, to marry her Groom.  After saying "I Do!" the new husband & wife toured the vineyards & captured sweet moments.  In celebration of the marriage, family & friends gathered to eat good food, drink good wine & make good memories.  Such a great wedding!  


My Favorite Moment:  I love the Bride & Groom dancing surrounded by their family & friends.

My Favorite Detail:  The lantern altar is not only striking, it's so meaningful since the Groom's father designed & created it for the Bride & Groom.

Congratulations, Melissa & Melbs!
