Taylor + Andrew // Casa Real at Ruby Hill Winery Wedding

Taylor and Andrew’s wedding at Casa Real, Ruby Hill Winery in Pleasanton, California, was filled with so many precious moments. It was a bright and beautiful day, and the love between the two lovebirds shined throughout the special day. The location set the stage for a day to remember and trust us when we say it was MAGICAL. From the wedding ceremony to the couples portraits, we loved photographing the delightful expressions of their near and dear ones and all of the highest celebration points. Watching Taylor and Andrew soak in their “just married” feelings without any worries brought us so much joy, and we couldn’t be happier for them. Here’s a glimpse of everything that happened on their wedding day. 

Taylor And Andrew’s Love Story

It all began in 2015 when Taylor and Andrew’s paths crossed while working at the same investment job in San Francisco. What started as a professional connection soon evolved into a close friendship, and after a year, their bond grew into something more – love!

During a weekend getaway to Stinson Beach, Taylor and Andrew found themselves hiking in the serene beauty of Muir Woods. During their adventure, Andrew surprised Taylor with a heartfelt proposal on a bridge surrounded by towering redwood trees. Overjoyed, Taylor happily accepted his proposal, marking the beginning of their ‘forever.’ As they returned to their AirBnB that evening, Taylor’s parents and sister awaited them, having been coordinated by Andrew for a surprise celebration! Talk about strategic planning! Andrew, if you’re reading this – hats off for planning something so incredible!

The day began with heartwarming group pictures featuring the radiant bride, her charming bridesmaids, and the handsome groom with his groomsmen. Clad in exquisite green gowns by Azazie, the bridesmaids exuded sheer joy as they embraced their roles in Taylor and Andrew’s momentous celebration. Taylor, the bride, donned a breathtaking gown from Janene’s Bridal Boutique, a masterpiece adorned with intricate floral motifs gracing every inch of the dress. And guess what? The bride arranged matching bouquets from Delford West Flowers, and they were all beaming with happiness.

Talking about the boys, Andrew and his gang styled themselves in sleek black suits from the Men’s Wearhouse. This party was ready to rock and roll! Taylor was every inch the perfect bride – a special shout out to Makeup by Adele and Bristle and Bloom Styles for working their magic! She looked like a vision, and her beautiful veil added an extra touch of glamor to her final look. Our lovely bride walked down the aisle with her parents side by side, and they were so proud of the woman she had become. Since Taylor and Andrew didn’t have an intimate first look before the ceremony, Andrew became SO emotional when he saw Taylor for the first time as she walked toward him. Cue the “awws!”. 

The lovebirds had a stunning outdoor wedding ceremony and it was absolutely breathtaking. The golden rays of the sun and the lush greenery surrounding them set the stage for a romantic ceremony. Their wedding theme was classic/traditional with a natural color palette. The venue’s blooming flowers and towering trees doubled up as the perfect backdrop for their wedding images. The weather was pleasant, with the sun shining and the happy couple smiling as they exchanged vows and said “I do” in front of their family and friends. 

Capturing Taylor and Andrew’s couples portraits was such a fantastic experience. To photograph their strong bond, we scouted for some picturesque spots in the vineyard with stunning views of the rolling hills. Thanks to the ethereal golden hour, we got some really romantic shots of the newlyweds kissing, hugging, and savoring every second.

Celebrating The Newlyweds

Soon, it was time to get the party started. Watching Taylor and Andrew share their special first dance to the song “Forever” by The Beach Boys had everyone mesmerized. The expression of love and joy on their faces made it a day we know they will cherish forever. From dancing with the family to the heartfelt toasts, the couple celebrated with their closest friends and family surrounding them. 

Every detail was meticulously planned and executed, from the delicious french fry bar and donut flambe station to the decorations by Pleasanton Rentals, neatly crafted invites from Minted and the exquisite cake by Cake Delight, all of which came together to mark the beginning of Taylor and Andrew’s forever journey. The couple had arranged for a string duo, An Elegant Touch of Strings, who played heavenly melodies during the cocktail hour. When it came to amping up the party and getting everyone on their feet, DJ Glen from Fantasy Sound Event Services took over for a night full of dancing and singing. The videography team seamlessly documented every precious moment, and we immensely appreciate them for doing such a fantastic job.
