Mother Nature and her Moods
Congratulations to Ria & Jordan who were married at Keswick Vineyards on Saturday, September 10th. Although the weather was at a comfortable, cooler temperature, Mother Nature couldn’t make up her mind if she wanted to mist or not. No problem at Keswick Vineyards because we have a wonderful rain plan and are very flexible on when to make that call. So, while Mother Nature tried to figure out what she was doing, Ria & Jordan and the rest of their wedding party and family took advantage of the nice, cooler, clear weather and spent the afternoon taking most of their photos.
This is a perfect example why I highly recommend doing a first look when you are doing an outside ceremony/wedding. Because Ria and Jordan did a first look, it allowed them to take advantage of the beautiful weather to get their photos done. Had they waited until after the ceremony, their photos would have had a “misting” look to them.
So, while Mother Nature tried to figure out what she was going to do, Keswick and the other vendors prepared for both an inside and outside ceremony. You can see by the photos, if they had to do their ceremony inside, it still would have been beautiful under our bright and airy reception tent. But Mother Nature decided to end her mist and allowed Ria and Jordan to have their dream ceremony outside amongst the vineyard! Thank you, Mother Nature!
The rest of the evening was picture perfect with delicious food from Goodrich Gourmet, desserts that were devoured as quickly as they could replace them and non-stop dancing with DJ Fit at the controls. Thank you to all the vendors:
