As Ann and Tanner’s Sonoma wedding photographer, we moved into the tented pavilion at the always gorgeous Viansa Winery for their reception. Their wedding colors of pale yellow, cream, and off-white paired perfectly with the elegant and larger than life white tent nestled here in the lush Sonoma, California’s wine country.

Ann was a very hands on bride when planning her wedding. With the help of her family and friends, they tackled the floral arrangements and table settings all on their own by hand! The centerpieces were vintage vases filled with crystal twigs, all collected by the family. Ann said she was very inspired by Anthropologie and an idea of ‘vintage marries modern’. Her hard work definitely paid off – everything turned out just as she imagined!

We love the texture the pleated tent creates for a ceiling,especially paired with those elaborate crystal chandeliers. If you’re going for a simple elegance, look no further than Viansa Winery – it is one of our favorite venues as a Sonoma wedding photographer.

We loved the way the reception was set up with a large dance floor in the middle of the tent. It was perfect for us as Ann and Tanner’s Sonoma wedding photographer when we were capturing photos of their very special first dance as husband and wife.

It was a blast being this couple’s Sonoma wedding photographer! These guys loved getting out on the dance floor with all of their family and friends to celebrate their love. It’s so easy for us to capture both classic and funny photos with couple’s as fantastic as Ann and Tanner.

As the sun set below the vine covered hills in Sonoma, the twinkle lights shined on, illuminating the Viansa Winery tented pavilion for this fun reception. It was nice to have various light to work with as the couple’s Sonoma wedding photographer.

The chandeliers set a different mood once they turned on and the candles were lit. Ann and Tanner’s cake was simple and pretty, adorned with fresh garden roses in varying shades of pink.

Isn’t this building just gorgeous? We love the vine covered walls, it really evokes the lush wine country setting we played in all day as Ann and Tanner’s Sonoma wedding photographer. Next post we will share a few of the vintage style portraits we captured of the beautiful couple!
