Daniels Vineyard is one of my absolutely favorite venues! The atmosphere, the people, its all wonderful! When Lauren had booked with me this wasn’t her set venue. However, through unlucky events, this was her backup. I am so happy she chose the vineyard.

The entire venue is set up for beautiful photos. From the vines, to the ponds, even the deck is set up so perfectly. When we arrived and went to “spot”our photo locations, Shay (my second shooter), and I couldn’t decide. We wanted to shoot everywhere lol Lucky for us, Lauren had an idea of just what she wanted!

From the moment we arrived to the end of the day, Lauren never lost her smiled. It didn’t matter what came her way, she had the biggest, most beautiful smile I have ever seen!

Justin on the other hand, was a bit nervous. I loved watching him at the alter as the rest of the wedding begin to begin. His expression went from excitement to nerves, back to joyful. (you’ll see below 🙂 You could see the love for Lauren on his face! His blue eyes sparkled as she approached him!

Justin and Lauren decided to release butterflies during the wedding ceremony. It was BEAUTIFUL! The butterflies that they had released during the ceremony came back and landed on Lauren’s flowers. (this was almost 20 minutes after the release) Such a sweet moment .

 

 

 

 

 

I have sneaky suspicion after this wedding, I will see more brides in this area begin to do the butterfly release. But can you blame them!?

From the beginning to the last dance, this wedding was an absolute blessing and joy to be a part of! Lauren was one lovely bride both on the inside and out! Justin was as kind and patient as I have ever seen! These two will experience many years of happiness<3
