people used to say you'll never find your soulmate in a bar.
kim and i didn't believe them. we met in a bar on restaurant row in waikiki,
but diana and chris didn't meet there.
they went to the same small university in washington d.c.,
but they didn't meet there.
they attended some of the same college parties,
but they didn't meet there.
they both went out to bars in huntington beach california,
but they didn't meet there.
diana's friend got kicked out of a bar, so they went home and sat on her porch.
chris stumbled out of a bar and stopped when he heard cat-calls from diana's friend.
that's when diana and chris finally met.
add 6 years, a surprise weekend at justin winery, some snoogling, and turn off the lights teddy pendergrass, it's time to say "i do!"
since it was where chris proposed to diana, it was perfect for them to have their wedding reception at justin winery in paso robles.
one of the first things we saw as we entered diana's suite at justin winery was her exquisite vera wang wedding dress. as good as it looked all on it's own, diana made it even more beautiful.
diana finished off her wedding attire with an amazing pair of stuart weitzman cranberry heels.
hmmm, what to do at a winery while you're waiting? what to do?
chris and diana had a traditional wedding at st james episcopal church in paso robles
now this is one good looking couple!
mmmm, grapes.
gotta love that warm california sun!
i absolutely love chris and diana's expressions in this shot.
the cave at justin winery holds many barrels of fine justin wine, the isosceles library, and memories. this is where chris proposed to diana.
congratulations chris and diana! you picked the best day ever to have your wedding. i'll always remember it, and you.
we wish you both a very happy new-lywed year :)
