House wedding in California wine country

Taking the drive out towards Napa and St. Helena and photographing weddings in that beautiful setting is high on the list as one of our favorite things.  There are so many nice venues out there and it's great having the chance to discover new ones each season.  A few weeks ago we had the chance to experience something new. Eric and Melody had a house wedding in California wine country that was a fantastic mix of small, intimate, beautifully detailed, and fun.  Our friends, Wylie Weddings, did a great job creating a warm and inviting environment and the home owners, cousins of the groom, were so generous to open up their home.  To top if off they managed to get Matt Costa to play the reception!  As all good days do, the day sped by fast but right as we the saw sun setting we managed to get across the way to a small vineyard and capture some couple portraiture with the Bride and Groom in the fantastic evening light.  Our night wound down with dancing beneath an outdoor tent complete with hanging chandelier and twinkly lights. Eric and Melody were so great to work with and we wish them all the best as they move forward together.
