When I imagine a dreamy classy winter wedding, Jessica and John’s wedding is pretty much what comes to mind! The gorgeous Early Mountain Vineyards provided a stunning backdrop for their chic and stunning wedding day! With Jessica being a interior designer by trade, it didn’t really surprise me that her designs for her wedding day were so stunning!
But the love surrounding their day was just as beautiful as the details. The way John looked at his bride all day long was so heartwarming! And just wait until you see their first look! What a tear jerker! And there’s something about winter weddings that is just so romantic. There’s such a sense of calm and tranquility throughout the day. It’s almost like time moves a little slower. The grand reception hall at Early Mountain with two huge (and very warm!) fireplaces on either end of the hall and gorgeous wooden beams going across the entire ceiling, it was the perfect setting for their cozy winter wedding.
Congrats to John and Jessica as you set out on this new journey together!! Enjoy your Caribbean cruise honeymoon!! The little cottage down the street from the venue where the girls got ready is so precious! LOVE LOVE LOVE these boutonnieres! So simple and classic! What a stunning bride!! Grab some tissues, friends! As soon as I told John that Jessica was walking up, you could see that wave of emotions that instantly hit his face. Their reaction when they saw each other was just the sweetest thing. I don’t think they even said a word to each other at first. They just rested their foreheads together and sat in silence with each other, taking it all in. Needless to say, my camera was getting a little foggy! FAVE! So stunning! Love everything about this- the florals, the light and neutral mix-matched bridesmaids dresses. So gorgeous! Gahhh this venue!! Can’t get enough! And this is the face of a man that already did a first look! Didn’t stop the tears when he saw his bride walk down the aisle! Married!! WOW WOW WOW!!!
