{Winter Winery Wedding} Danielle & Coulter

Happy Wedding Wednesday!

This week, the cold temperatures feel like winter & the colored leaves look like autumn.  This December winery wedding is almost the opposite; the calendar date spells winter & the seasonal leaves read autumn.  Whatever season it may be, the gorgeous location, the rustic details & the happy couple clearly equal a fabulous wedding.  IQphoto Studio shows us the beauty:  

Danielle & Coulter got married on December 16 at Casa Real at Ruby Hill Winery in Pleasanton, California.  Nestled in Livermore Valley Wine Country, the venue boasts a Mediterranean feel surrounded by vineyards & olive groves.  The Bride & Groom made the venue their own with a classic black & white palette accented with plenty of glowing candlelight.

The rustic Amber Room provided the perfect ceremony setting with its warm brown walls & porcelain tiles.  The beautiful Bride floated down the white rose petal & floating candle lined aisle to meet her handsome Groom.  In front of their nearest & dearest, they exchanged vows & became husband & wife.  Their triumphant ceremony exit was marked with a white rose petal toss. 

The celebration continued in the Grand Salon, a classic setting for eating, drinking & being merry.  Touches like wine cork escort cards & guest book celebrated the vineyard location while the floating candle centerpieces twinkled & the black chargers added a hint of drama.  The wine flowed freely as did laughter & dancing.  Once night fell & the newlyweds snuck away for dramatic final photos in the vineyard.  Cheers to the new Mr. & Mrs.!    

My Favorite Moment: The petal toss- the Bride loves those flying rose petals while the Groom seems to be ducking!

My Favorite Detail: The wedding cork guest book- perfect for winery wedding!

Congratulations, Danielle & Coulter!
