The afternoon sun bathed the gardens, trees and vines with beautiful golden light. The lawn is lush and the vineyard full. The picturesque pond add to the tranquility of the location. The weather was just perfect for guest who came from near and far to enjoy the gardens of Cornerstone in Sonoma county and more importantly, to witness Emily and Russell begin the next chapter in their lives together.

Emily and Russell – all your planning has paid off and the wedding was absolutely beautiful. We hope you two get some rest and relaxation in Mexico. All the best. -DH

There were all types of cool art pieces around the vineyard. Here is the bouquet as seen through the legs of a metal sculpture. The floral arrangement and bouquet were design by Maki Aizawa Gilman of Viola Flowers.

Maria Chang and her awesome crew of PMA were on hand to work their magic and lend a helping hand. They are the most helpful crew of hair and makeup artist I have worked with.

There were a lot of cool and unique places to shoot around Cornerstone Gardens.

Gorgeous cake from Auntie B’s Cakes.

The speeches were very heartfelt as well as funny. Emily did her best to fight back the tears, but siblings has a special way at tugging at the heartstring. Her brother Raymond did just that.
