Another wedding at Jess Jones Vineyards in Dixon, CA so we knew all the great spots this time!

The atmosphere here was super calm which is hard to do on your wedding day. There was no rushing or stressing around, just taking time to enjoy every moment of the day. And WOW were there some fun and memorable moments!

The hotel that the bridal party got ready in, was about 10 minutes away from the ceremony location and it was so nice the way they had a private bridal suite for the girls. This is usually when the most chaos happens on a wedding day and its a race for time but from the second I walked in it felt calm and everyone was on time so it made my job easier!
