A Romantic Sonoma County Wedding: From Sonoma County court house to Paradise Ridge Winery

Nestled in the heart of California’s wine country, Sonoma County offers some of the most picturesque locations for weddings. Recently, I had the pleasure of capturing a beautiful wedding that perfectly embodied the charm and elegance of this region. The day began with an intimate ceremony at Sonoma County court house, followed by a delightful family photo session at the stunning Paradise Ridge Winery.

An Elegant Ceremony at Sonoma County court house

Sonoma County court house, with its intimate indoor event space, provided a perfect setting for the couple’s vows. (You can have up to 17 guest) The bride, radiant in a white cocktail dress, and the groom, dapper in his suit, exchanged vows in a private room filled with natural light. The couple’s closest family members gathered around, creating an intimate atmosphere filled with love and joy.

The ceremony was simple yet profoundly touching. Every moment was captured with care, from the tender exchange of rings to the joyous first kiss as husband and wife.

Celebrating Love at Paradise Ridge Winery

After the quick ceremony, the celebration continued at Paradise Ridge Winery. Nestled on a hilltop with sweeping views of the vineyards and the Russian River Valley, this location offered a breathtaking backdrop for the family photos.

The giant LOVE sculpture is always a perfect backdrop. The lush vineyards, rolling hills, and artistic sculptures scattered throughout the grounds created a picturesque setting that was both romantic and enchanting. The bride and groom’s love for each other was evident in every frame, their smiles and laughter contagious as they posed for photos with their loved ones.

Capturing the Magic of the Moment

The winery’s expansive grounds provided numerous spots for capturing stunning images. From the rustic charm of the wine barrels to the modern elegance of the outdoor sculptures, each location added a unique element to the photos.

The couple’s families were a joy to work with, their love and support for the newlyweds shining through in every shot. We captured candid moments of laughter, heartfelt embraces, and the joyous interactions that make family gatherings so special.
