This vintage-chic Autumn wedding inspiration shoot pays tribute to the turn of the century dapper style with modern elegance. Its jewel-toned, dusty hues set the stage for this retro romance. Golden rays of sunset beamed through the orange groves. The historic Swanner House, at A Stone’s Throw Winery, was built in 1923 in San Juan Capistrano and has been named a historic landmark. Its located on 2.6 acres of land and hosts weddings and events as an all outdoor venue.
Janet Wheeland was there to capture all the fun details, Charlotte’s Sweets provided the beautiful cake, and Joy N’ Company Events planned every detail.
Michelle Searles with Joy N’ Company Events was the visionary and coordinator along with her styling assistant, Brontë Yarbrough. Megan, with Lovestruck Blooms, took Michelle’s vision and brought it to life with her unique floral styling.
Extra Dirty Vintage has a unique collection of vintage-inspired night ware so we used to of their silk night robes for our bride and bridesmaid and accented our bride with a white blazer for some extra flare.

Big shout out to all the vendors that made this photoshoot possible! And thank you to my dear friends Marcus, Michele, Nate and Kaitlyn for being our wonderful models.
Becoming a Mama has given me a whole new perspective and respect for all the moms who’ve come before me. People can tell you “it’s life changing”, but you don’t know what it’s really like until you’re in it.
My sweet Cali Rae brings us so much joy and sweetness. She melts my heart when she says: “hi, I love you”… “bootiful Mama”… “oh goodness”… and gives us hugs and smooshes! She can be a rollercoaster of emotion, wearing her heart on her sleeve - she reminds me how to live in the moment.
There’s something so timeless about black and white photos. 🤩
