Vineyard+Sea Engagement ~ Kerry+Michael

November 14, 2015

Sweet Engaged Couple in the Eucalyptus Forest

It was a pleasure to spend the afternoon with these two; we got in a double dip: Baileyana Winery in the Edna Valley + Montaña de Oro. That’s all I’m gonna say ’cause I don’t want to keep you from these pics (which are awesome, just like Kerry+Michael). Save the Date See ya at #TheSchmidtShow2016!

Some weddings are just “the vibe” ~ I don’t even know why, but every frame from this wedding was glorious. Probably just a beautiful couple, a glorious day and some incredible views*
*The Chateau did not hurt

Congratulations, Kiara+Brice!!!

Senbazuru—the tradition of 1,001 origami cranes at weddings—is deeply rooted in Japanese culture, symbolizing good fortune, longevity, and a thousand years of happiness. Traditionally, family and friends fold 1,000 paper cranes while sharing wishes for the couple’s future, with the 1,001st crane added as an extra blessing and a little boost of good luck.

It’s always such a treat to see meaningful cultural traditions woven into a wedding celebration. At Jackie and Ryan’s wedding, we had the privilege of experiencing not only the beauty of Japanese traditions but also the vibrant warmth of Mexican culture, showcased through incredible food, festive drinks, and an unforgettable performance by a talented Mariachi band. It was a beautiful celebration that honored both families and the traditions that shaped their story.

Elena came into our lives the way a lot of new people do these days…she responded to our request for childcare for our two-year-old ;). When we discussed the possibility of nanny-ing, we had inquired about Memorial Day weekend and whether she’d be available…to which she responded, “Unfortunately, no. I’m going to a music festival!” Turns out, we would all be in attendance ;). And from that point on, we not only found a nanny…but a friend…ahhh <3

Fast forward to last month, our daughter is now 5, and we had enough time to attend the beautiful wedding/festival celebration for Elena & Nick. The kids stayed at home, with the exception of their pup ;). ’Twas a beautiful night in the vineyard in the Edna Valley. The long table, filled with good people, full glasses of delicious wine & food, and surrounded by the vineyard and good vibes.
