Jenni & Andrew | St. Helena Private Estate & Vineyard Wedding

It was five years ago when the first chapter of what would become a sweet love story was written. Through family and mutual friends, Jenni and Andrew first met near Chappellet Vineyard, and since then, the pair formed a bond that only grew closer with time.

We absolutely loved having the privilege of taking this adoring couple’s wedding photos, and we could most definitely sense the tender bond between them! Stunning in her figure-hugging wedding dress, Jenni stole the show, while hubby Andrew looked quite handsome in his cool gray suit and festive coral tie. The beautiful classic watch that she surprised him with, engraved along the inside with their wedding date, really completed the look! [ read more … ]

After some research, Tim found Viader Vineyards and Winery — a hidden Napa gem with breathtaking views overlooking the Valley. And thanks to the super accommodating staff there, they made sure things went as smoothly as possible. They even peeked out and quietly cheered Tim on when he dropped down on one knee 🙂 [ read more … ]
