Austin and Marissa got ready on property at Monserate Winery, settling into the day they had long been looking forward to. They met overlooking the vineyards for their first look, where they exchanged private vows, emotional and deeply personal.
Their ceremony was officiated by Marissa’s brother, adding a personal layer to the moment. A seat reserved in the front row served as a quiet tribute to her late father, a way for him to remain part of the day. Surrounded by their closest people, the ceremony felt intimate and reflective.
They moved throughout the property for portraits, from the hillsides to the vineyard vines and back to their ceremony altar draped in butter yellow florals. The time allowed them to step away together, taking in the day while preserving it in a way that would last.
The reception moved between indoor and outdoor spaces, allowing the evening to flow naturally from one setting to the next. Thoughtful, emotional speeches drew everyone in, creating a shared sense of connection throughout the room. It was a celebration that reflected not only their love for each other, but how deeply they are loved by those around them.
