Fall Wedding in Wine Country | Temecula, California | Caleb + Danielle
Caleb + Danielle’s September wedding, was the first wedding of the season that the bride had a real reason to put on her embroidered jean Mrs. jacket. The warm twinkling market lights and fresh Wood Fire Pizza Wagon made for a fun night! I met Danielle through my best friend and now she’s my hair stylist. She had just gotten engaged in snowy Big Bear when she asked if I was available for her date!
Their venue is an Airbnb set in the heart of Temecula Wine Country, and matches the “intimate, outdoorsy vibe” that Caleb + Danielle envisioned. They chose a wedding color palette mimicking fall leaves. The groom and his groomsmen wore dark brown wool with rust orange bow ties. The natural lighting this time of year really compliments their colors. The sun added just the right amount of golden glow to the bridal party photographs.
They are a Tinder success story. One might think Tinder relationships are superficial, but I can tell you there was so much emotion, love, and tears at their wedding to crush that assumption. During first looks and getting ready with their respective Dads, I like to ask the Dad to tell their child one thing they love about them. Caleb and his dad simultaneously started tearing up and looked at me as if I purposefully made them cry! Don’t get me started on their first look… you’ll just have to see it yourself.
Thank you Danielle + Caleb for letting me be a part of your day and trusting me to capture all the magic!
