I’m convinced that Thomas Fogarty Winery has some of the most striking views in sunny California. And what more could you ask for on the day you say “I do” to your other half? Not much else is needed, especially with a rockstar team of vendors that made this elegant soiree a celebration to remember. Have a look right here for all the stunning imagery captured by Carlie Statsky.
From Carlie Statsky Photography… I love that this couple made their blended families and their beautiful new son a part of the whole day. Dad carried his baby boy into the ceremony so that they could both watch their favorite girl walk down the aisle. Both of them were beaming from the moment that they saw her. Amy Burke did an amazing job with the bright and eclectic floral design. One of my favorite features were the giant balls of flowers that hung from the ceiling in the dining pavillion. Thomas Fogarty Winery is beautiful any time of year, but it was an extra clear day so guests could enjoy views out over the whole Bay Area throughout the evening.
From the beautiful Bride… Our goal for our wedding was to achieve a look of simple, understated elegance. We paired the neutral colors of the bridesmaid dresses and table linens with bright pops of color from the flowers. As the wedding was in early November, we knew the weather was going to be a bit of a variable, and even if it was sunny, the temperature would drop as the sun went down. That’s why the brightly colored pashminas we offered our guests during the cocktail hour were such a hit. It was also a great way to add more color, while bringing some of Nick’s Indian heritage to the day. And they made a wonderful favor for our guests! Other highlights included the amazing floral chandeliers that hung from the Fogarty Pavilion, the delicious food from Le Papillon paired with Fogarty wines, and the music from Daniel at Big Fun.
