Real Wedding: Nora & Gordon



 When the bride, Nora, hired me for this July 3rd wedding, I knew I was in for a treat. She was spunky but laid back and decisive yet inquisitive. This was my first wedding at a winery so I was very excited to get the experience being surrounded by beautiful vineyards. The groom, Gordon is in the industry of working for a major wine producer so it was extremely fitting that the wedding was held at South Coast Winery. The bride expressed to me that they had guests that were really fun and they really wanted to have a great party to commemorate their love. We certainly achieved that. 

We began with a ceremony at the Rose Arbor and then moved the cocktail hour and reception to the Courtyard. At a certain point in the evening (due to noise ordinances) all of the vendors pitched in and moved the DJ equipment into the Barrel Room, almost seamlessly. No worries there, the party continued without a hitch. It was a great event and it was a pleasure working with the couple and all parties involved.


Taken prior to the ceremony...these two are so adorable.


Lovely pre-wedding photos!

 
The ceremony was held on the beautiful Rose Arbor Lawn.


It was only fitting that the tables were named after different varieties of wine.



Love this first dance photo. The couple danced to Adele's "Make You Feel My Love"




Wishing Nora & Gordon lifelong love and happiness!
