Gainey Vineyard wedding

As seen on Style Me Pretty

Niki and Mike’s Gainey Vineyard wedding in October was such a perfectly romantic central California wine country celebration! They started with the beautiful backdrop of the winery, set against the hills of Santa Ynez, and added classic, timeless details by Amazing Days Events and flowers in a neutral color palette by Ella & Louie floral design.

The ceremony, officiated by a family friend, honored Niki’s Greek heritage with wedding crowns called stefanas, bestowed by the bride’s parents and tied together with ribbon to symbolize unity. Right after Niki and Mike walked back up the aisle, showered with lavender by their guests, we took off in a Cloud Climber Jeep with the bride and groom to capture the stunning Santa Ynez Valley sunset (it was SO gorgeous and special — just wait til you see!).
