A Whimsical California Winery Wedding with a Hint of Sparkle

Talk about a whimsical dream! Catharina and Adam’s ridiculously pretty California winery wedding was a girly-girl’s fantasy: a little sparkle here, a dash of blush Peonies there, oh and add in a bit of tousled braided hair for good measure… and we’re here for it. Can you imagine Adam’s face when he saw his bride in that va-va-voom Essense of Australia gown, too? Feel free to swoon over the perfect photos by the lovely Mallory Dawn Photography like we did…

From Mallory Dawn PhotographyCatharina & Adam got married at South Coast Winery in Temecula, California surrounded by their family and friends. It was quite the celebration because their families come from different cultural backgrounds. 

The venue itself has a very European vibe to it which created a beautiful backdrop for the two to tie the knot. Catharina kept her wedding colors pretty neutral which is always looks beautiful in my opinion. By choosing muted pastel colors, it really draws the attention to the couple and their love for one another. Their wedding had a very classic, vintage-chic feel to it which was so fun to capture. Catharina and Adam had such an amazing day full of love and laughter!

We absolutely adored how everyone felt so moved to get up out of their seats and watch the newlyweds’ first dance up close and personal! And dear bride-to-be: don’t forget the impact that simple ambient lighting has on the whimsy of your wedding.. see how pretty this looks? Congratulations to the new Mr. and Mrs.!

Now… please enjoy their highlight film from Theatre 10!
