Rebecca and Troy at the Orfila Winery

Orfila Winery is a great spot for an outdoor wedding, especially if you want to bring in your own caterer. Rebecca and Troy love good food and wine so this was a natural spot for them. The wedding was in early April when the grape vines were just beginning to grow. We were having a beautiful, if not hot and windy day at the winery. We used the watermelon colored peonies and roses, so that it wasn't pink or orange. The peonies were the first cut of the season and were stunning!
You two are the best! Thanks for letting me be part of your big day!




The ceremony site is on the grass outside of the reception tent. We used small glass vases for the pew marker flowers and tied them onto the chairs with raffia, again to give it a more natural look, then we puddled rose petals under them. We added two large urns in the front for the 'altar.' We brought these back in by the head table after the ceremony.

There were small stone vases with flowers for the belly bars.

The place cards were set inside large wood boxes filled with split peas, set in front of potted lavender bushes, it was a different and fun look to the table.

Rebecca wanted more of an organic look with the flowers so we added lavender and rosemary sprigs to the napkins and in the arrangements.

The happy couple!

Wine bottles as table names.


The tall centerpieces had a clear container that held the flowers, the pilsner vase was filled with horsetail and then set in a square wood box with lots of votive candles.


Look at this chocolate cake! We used all edible fruit and added orchids and gold dust to the fruit, it shimmered and glowed in the light, perfect!
