On June 27th 2009, Cindy and Kevin were married in a sweet ceremony at Sutter Creek United Methodist Church. With the piano playing “Georgia” the guests were seated and a very intimate and perfect ceremony ensued. It began with the bride’s extremely proud father walking her down the aisle and was closed with the longest standing ovation I have ever seen.
The winery reception was kicked off shortly after and began with an amazing three piece band playing some smooth jazz in the “Southern Lounge”, which was complete with sweet tea and lemonade served in mason jars. The decor was reminiscent of the front porch of a true Sothern Belle and peach place cards were picked from the peach tree when it was time to move on to dinner.
The menu couldn’t have been any more fitting and included pecan crusted chicken breast, baked zucchini gratin, sweet cheddar cornbread and grilled peach salad. I must say, Beth Sogaard Catering did an incredible job! As soon as the toasts were done, the background music faded and the 7 piece band kicked in, bringing us an undeniably fabulous rendition of Sam Cooke’s “Nothing Can Change This Love” which may be my new favorite first dance song!
Beautiful flowers by Blooms! helped create the romantic, southern ambience and the amazing portraits were shot by Allison Stahl. In spite of the 105 degree day, this is one that will go down in the books as one to remember for its’ class and beauty! I now get to look forward to a stunning video, coming shortly from Jensen Wedding Films!
