Lucas + Jackie // Wedding at Casa Real at Ruby Hill Winery

Weddings are always filled with love, laughter, and a touch of magic, but Lucas and Jackie’s wedding at Casa Real in Pleasanton took things to the next level. Their day was packed with sentimental moments and sweet surprises, and we couldn’t have been happier to capture it all. From the time they met just after Thanksgiving in 2018 to their breathtaking proposal at Lake Yamanaka in Japan, this couple’s love story is truly one for the books. With meticulous planning, Lucas and Jackie created a wedding that was as flawless as it was heartfelt. Here’s a glimpse into their unforgettable day, from the emotional vows to the lively reception.

Lucas And Jackie’s Wedding At Casa Real In Pleasanton

Like most wedding days, we kicked things off by photographing Lucas and Jackie as they prepared for the big moment. Jackie’s bridesmaids were buzzing with excitement, surrounding her as she got ready in her bridal suite. Once Jackie’s hair and makeup were finished, her bridesmaids gathered around to gush over her transformation. And WOW, was she stunning! When she finally slipped into her wedding dress from J’aime Bridal, there were gasps all around. Jackie was the picture of elegance and grace, with every detail of her look fitting perfectly with the fairytale atmosphere of the day.

On the other side of the venue, Lucas was looking just as dapper. His suit, perfectly tailored, made him look every bit the handsome groom. The camaraderie between Lucas and his friends made for some great pre-ceremony moments, as they joked around while helping each other with their ties and boutonnieres. 

Lucas And Jackie Say ‘I Do’ 

Casa Real is truly a dream venue for weddings. We’ve had the pleasure of photographing several weddings here, and each one has its own special magic. The outdoor ceremony space, with its lush greenery and timeless architecture, has a fairytale quality that makes every moment feel like it’s straight out of a storybook. For Lucas and Jackie’s ceremony, the sun cast a warm glow over the space, and the greenery popped beautifully against the venue’s pastel-colored walls.

One of the standout details from Lucas and Jackie’s wedding at Casa Real was the white rose wedding arch that framed the couple as they said their vows. Karl from Delford West Flowers did an incredible job designing the floral arrangements. The arch looked otherworldly, with cascading white roses and greenery that added an extra layer of romance to the already beautiful setting.

After the ceremony, it was time for the couples portraits! Lucas and Jackie were such naturals in front of the camera. We hardly had to give them any posing directions because they were so comfortable just being themselves. The grounds at Casa Real provided the perfect backdrop for these portraits. Between the venue’s fairytale charm, wide open spaces, and lush greenery, we had endless options for stunning shots. We even got some fantastic group shots with the bridal party, which was super fun and stress-free. Everyone was so happy to be part of the day, and their energy really shone through in the pictures.

The Reception

As the day moved on, it was time to head inside for the reception. Everything from beginning to end was managed flawlessly by Brittany Ellis from Beets Hospitality. Lucas and Jackie made their grand entrance hand-in-hand, and they were met with cheers and applause from their guests. The couple prepared a beautiful choreographed dance to the song You Are The Reason by Calum Scott and Leona Lewis. 

Next came the speeches where friends and family stood up to share their memories and well-wishes, making everyone in the room tear up at least once. Then it was time for the cake cutting! Lucas and Jackie’s cake was not only adorable but also deeply personal. They made sure their beloved dogs were a part of their day by featuring the cutest little dog cake toppers. It was such a sweet touch that added a bit of fun and whimsy to the moment.

One of the most unique and special elements of Lucas and Jackie’s wedding at Casa Real was the live painter, Kim-Vi Tran from Kvtfineart. It was incredible to watch the artwork come to life throughout the night, and it became a conversation piece for many of the guests. And let’s not forget the amazing music that kept everyone on their feet all night long! Norman Anub from Fantasy Sound Studios was the DJ for the evening, and he did a fantastic job of setting the mood with his expertly curated playlist. The dance floor was packed with Timothy Nguyen from Collideskope Studios recording every moment! The energy was electric, and it was clear that Lucas and Jackie’s loved ones were having the time of their lives.
