The ceremony was a picturesque scene straight out of a romantic film. Petals cascaded around them as they sealed their union with a kiss, marking the beginning of their lifelong journey together.

After the heartfelt vows, the newlyweds shared a time alone, a peaceful moment before the festivities. In the venue’s gardens, they walked hand in hand to the picturesque view of the majestic mountains.

Striking chart pillars, a standout feature to the fountain area, each showcased the villa’s pattern.

In the evening, the bride changed into a chic, short white dress. Her hair was styled with a large white bow – a playful yet elegant touch to her look. After their traditional first dance, the couple cut a white cake decorated with elegant swirls and topped with fresh berries.

Cara shared that they took a unique approach when it came to their guest book: “We hand selected wines that we love and placed them on each table for our guests to write on & leave us fun notes. Now we get to enjoy these bottles at different anniversaries and big life moments just as they joined us for one of our favorite moments together.”

The after-party buzzed with energy as guests embraced the Cowboy Disco theme. A transformed space became alive with a new vibe. Disco balls reflected lights across the dance floor where friends and family showed off their sparkly outfits and cowboy hats. Everyone fully embraced the fun of this unexpected twist to the celebration.
