Ponte Winery Wedding | Garett & Christy
Southern California Professional Photographer
As Professional Photographers here in Southern California, we just adore the couples we meet, whether it’s to photograph their engagement session, their wedding, various stages of their family life or any combination of those, as each one of them are truly great to work with. But perhaps our favorite part is hearing their stories. How they met, how they became interested in each other, their first date and of course, the proposal. This is especially true for Christy and Garett. A truly wonderful couple that we had the pleasure of photographing their wedding at Ponte Winery.
Located in the heart of Temecula Wine Country, this awesome vineyard wedding venue boasts amazing views of the rolling hills of grape vines. It offers you two outdoor locations to choose from for your ceremony, as well as one indoor location, and can accommodate up to 400 guests! Temecula offers scenic views and plenty of vineyards that makes for beautiful backdrops to your ceremony and your wedding photos. A Ponte Winery Wedding makes for a great wedding location, which is probably why Christy and Garett chose this wedding venue.
Elegant, classic, and romantic. These three words are the perfect combo to describe Garett and Christy’s wedding. Not only are Garett and Christy a gorgeous couple, but their wedding venue was absolutely gorgeous as well, which made for amazing photos from the team at Three16 Photography.
Christy was a stunning bride in her lace Pronovias gown, and we’re absolutely obsessed with her floral bouquet. Garett awaited his lovely bride in an all-black suit, while his groomsmen by his side also dressed to the nines! Our favorite pop of color? The bride tribe’s elegant deep red gowns. We loved the romantic color theme of white, gold, black, and deep red for this winery wedding!
Garett and Christy’s outdoor ceremony was one for the books. The centerpiece to the ceremony, the pergola, was decorated with dreamy white florals and lush greenery, which was perfect for framing these two as they exchanged their vows! With such a beautiful backdrop, and a perfectly overcast day, it made for a picture-perfect ceremony. This wedding featured John Garcia as he was live painting their ceremony!
What a unique idea for such a unique and beautiful wedding!
We would really like to thank Christy and Garett for allowing Three16 Photography to be part of your special day. We wish you many years of love and happiness.
Check out their love story. We hope you enjoy it, and their photos, as much as we do.
