Nestled between rolling hills and peaceful vineyards, Callaway Vineyard & Winery is one of the most picturesque places to have a wedding in Southern California’s Wine Country.
To put it simply, Callaway Vineyard & Winery is one of our favorite places to capture a wedding. Callaway provides an amazing contrast of modern architecture and breathtaking views of the their own and neighboring vineyards.
Adorned in a classically elegant wedding gown, as well as a custom tailored black tuxedo, Alie and Brian elected to have their ceremony outdoors on the West Lawn. Overlooking Callaway’s own rolling vineyards, this ceremony site boasts an unbeatable view of the gorgeous Temecula Valley sunset, which we just had to take advantage of for their portraits!
Alie and Brian’s reception was held in the absolutely incomparable Barrel Room. With all of the perimeter walls being blanketed with actual wine barrels, this reception space is the perfect backdrop for an authentic wine country wedding. And though Alie and Brian had a large wedding of well over 200 guests, the Barrel Room provided plenty of room to accommodate all of the guests and still had a dance floor space big enough for this delightfully raucous party.
With family, friends and with their dog Chloe, Alie and Brian had their dream wedding. Complete with a Metallica song playing during their ceremony and an Alice in Chain’s ballad during their first dance, Alie and Brian did their wedding – their way – it was truly amazing to be a part of their special day.
