A Winter Wedding at Folino Estate
If you know me, you know I’m a Fall girl through and through. But Lindsay and Jeff’s cozy December wedding at Folino Estate Winery made me fall in love with winter vibes (even with the beautiful 60 degree weather that Lindsay could not have been happier about), and I couldn’t get enough of it. With its rustic, inviting charm and Italian-inspired setting steeped in wine culture, Folino Estate provided the perfect backdrop for their unforgettable day.
What I love most about being a wedding photographer, aside from capturing memories, is hearing each couple’s love story and learning what makes their journey unique. Lindsay and Jeff’s story began through softball—Jeff was the coach for Lindsay’s sister’s team, and the rest is history. Their wedding was a beautiful celebration of their love and the people who have been part of their 11-year journey. With just 65 guests, it felt more like an intimate family gathering than a formal event, perfectly reflecting Lindsay and Jeff’s vision for their day.
With grandparents facing health challenges, they planned the day on short notice, skipped the big wedding party, and kept it simple so their loved ones could attend. Lindsay’s sister was her Matron of Honor, and Jeff’s son was his Best Man, highlighting the family-first focus of the day. In a truly special moment, Lindsay’s stepdad, dad, and grandfather all walked her down the aisle, creating an entourage of three proud men escorting her.
This wedding wasn’t about elaborate details or a huge guest list—it was about love, family, and the moments that matter most. From the heartfelt ceremony to the laughter-filled reception, every part of the day felt like them. It was cozy, laid-back, fun, and full of love.
