Shannon & Dan’s Beautiful Fall Wedding at Keswick Vineyards
Shannon and Dan couldn’t have asked for a more perfect day for their November wedding at Keswick Vineyards! Blessed with unexpectedly warm weather, it felt more like a fresh spring day than fall. Yet, the surrounding scenery made it clear this was peak autumn – the mountains and vineyards were alive with vibrant fall colors, creating a stunning natural backdrop for their celebration.
The ceremony took place right by the vineyard, with breathtaking mountain views behind them. Standing close to the vines, Shannon and Dan exchanged vows in the heart of nature's autumn masterpiece. Dan’s gift to his groomsmen added a charming and playful touch to the day; he presented each of them with a personalized bobblehead. With a photo showing this moment, you'll see Dan’s thoughtful lineup of bobbleheads on the pool table, mimicking the groomsmen standing at the altar.
Their two adorable French bulldogs, dressed as flower girls, also stole the show as they pranced down the aisle. These sweet “flower dogs” added extra joy to the ceremony, and we’ve included a picture capturing their adorable presence.
As guests transitioned into the cocktail hour, they were welcomed by a uniquely designed round blue bar. The panels featured an intricate blue pattern on a white background, adding elegance and warmth to the setting. This same design was cleverly carried over to the wedding cake, which was beautifully painted by their baker to echo the bar’s décor. Topped with a charming statue of their two dogs, the cake was a delightful blend of creativity and personal touch.
For the reception under Keswick’s Aurora tent, Shannon and Dan transformed the venue with layers of texture and style. The couple added a decal to Keswick’s wooden dance floor, creating a brown and white checkered pattern that added a fresh, unique look to the reception space. A tapestry pattern woven into the reception bar design brought everything together seamlessly, creating a cozy yet elegant ambiance that harmonized with the warm autumn day.
Textures, patterns, and natural colors were thoughtfully layered throughout the décor, blending into the season and setting perfectly. Shannon and Dan’s wedding was an unforgettable celebration of love, warmth, and the natural beauty of autumn at Keswick Vineyards.
