Allie & Ryan chose the beautiful Sunstone Villa as a backdrop for their wedding ceremony. With a color palette of french blue, creme, gold and taupe, the overall look was elegant yet understated. Guests were greeted with champagne as they arrived in the winery, walking through the vines to the ceremony. Huge urns of flowers in creme and green tones sat at the alter, while guests sat at beautiful cane back chairs. The couples daughter was held by the groom as he entered. The bride came down the aisle with her Father wearing a Samuelle Couture gown in a taupe color. After the vows, guests, made their way to the front of the villa for cocktails. Linen upholstered lounge furniture and wooden bars added to the elegant outdoor theme. An oversized 7' wooden board helped guests find their seats - each guests name was on the board on beautiful blue paper in gold calligraphy. Guest tables were covered in gorgeous creme flowers, with polish bread sitting at each place setting. The brides father gave a toast sharing their Polish heritage and invited the bride and groom to do a toast with vodka and water. Guests danced the night away under a criss cross pattern of string lights.
