My wedding dream team got the band back together for this fun styled shoot for Real Weddings Magazine. Two of my favorite humans on earth, Kate of Kate Whelan Events and Shannon of Flourish were my partners in awesome for this lovely shoot. The three of us have done A LOT of styled shoots together because it is just so much dang fun to make pretty together. Our first styled shoot together was over 8 years ago. I was pregnant with Ben and couldn’t really do any of the heavy lifting. That proved kind of hilarious as we were setting the shoot up in the middle of a field. I remember Kate’s arms shaking as she helped carry the alarmingly heavy farm table to the best light that was just ever so far away from the cars. This time around it was Kate who was unable to help due to growing a human – but blessedly we were not in the middle of a field. Instead we were at the beautiful Rancho Victoria Vineyards in Plymouth, California. The weather was amazing, our real couple was adorbs and Kate and Shannon and all the other vendors who made this shoot magic brought their A games! Enjoy some of my favorite images from this perfect day!
