Carneros Inn Wedding | Damion Hamilton | Napa Wedding Photographer

Are you thinking of having your wedding at Carneros Inn? It’s a beautiful, country luxury venue with an excellent staff and we highly recommend it! Today I was looking back at the images from a recent Carneros Inn wedding and I am so in love with them!!!! Unfortunately, we don’t always get to share all of our work with you and this is one of those pieces that I truly wish we could show you! Fortunately, their event designer Sasha Souza Events, was able to share some of the images on her Sparkliatti blog.  Sasha shares more details about how the color scheme unfolded throughout the evening from an initial black & white pallet through shades of soft peach & pink all the way to a deep, rich magenta!  To see some beautiful detail & design ideas at a fantastic venue, please visit here:

Chris & Stephanie’s Wedding | Damion Hamilton | Napa Wedding Photographer

You might remember Chris & Stephanie from their fun engagement session at AT&T park! Celebrating on a beautiful, sunny day with their friends & family, these die hard Giants fans recently tied the knot under the shady branches of a huge oak tree.  Chris & Stephanie were as much in love as ever…it was a joy to watch them see each for the first time and then just settle in to enjoy this very special day together.  Purple was the hue of the day, showing up in a variety of shades, amidst special personal touches such as the custom corks printed by a friend.

Chris & Stephanie, thanks so much for letting us be a part of your life and your wedding day! You guys made so many special memories! May your marriage bring you even closer, bring you even more joy & laughter (Chris has a great laugh!) and allow you to be a great example of those who truly see the best in each other.

Keep loving,

Julie

Laurie & Bob’s Castello di Amorosa & Culinary Institute of America Adventure! Damion Hamilton | Napa Tour Photographer

Earlier, we had posted about Laurie & Bob’s intimate wedding at the Vintage Estate.  We told you about how they had decided to make this trip fulfill their hearts’ desires, so they brought 14 of the most special people in their lives to the Napa Valley for tours and tastings and great fun!! Well, one of the joys we had was getting to go with them and document a few of their fun activities! Damion had a chance to tag along on their tour of the famous castle (Castello di Amorosa–one of our favorite places) and also got to document their family & friends chopping, washing, zesting, and cooking to their hearts’ content at a group cooking class at CIA (Culinary Institute of America), where chefs and students flock from around the world to perfect their craft! What a fun day! Congratulations to Bob & Laurie, not only on their beautiful marriage, but on providing a great & memorable experience for their friends & family!!

Keep enjoying! Julie
