Sometimes unpredictable weather can make for the most dreamy and unexpected backdrops. That was certainly the case for Deia and Matt’s summer wedding day at King Family Vineyard. With the hot temperatures and the mountain air, there is always looming threat of a summer storm! I’m so thankful for this amazing couples who never let the changing weather plans ruin the celebration of the day and allowed me to capture some of my favorite rainy day romantic portraits!

This wedding wins the award for the best last minute ceremony flip! With a dream team of vendors, determined to bring Deia and Matt’s wedding vision to life. The planning team and florist stylings from Anyvent Planning and Willowbranch Flowers were able to transform the covered outdoor porch of King Family Vineyard into a cozy ceremony aisle!

Deia’s modern and sophisticated bridal style was such a fun compliment for this couples bubbly personality! I knew instantly when we met for their engagement session that their wedding day would be filled with laughter and sentimental touches. Just wait until you see the incredible ceiling lined greenery, bar signage, and custom Champaign display!
