Cris and Jenny’s Vine Hill House wedding was a beautiful blend of their cultures and traditions, creating a meaningful celebration of their love. With two ceremonies—a Vietnamese tea ceremony and a traditional Western ceremony—they truly honored their families and what matters most to them. Vine Hill House in Sebastopol provided the perfect backdrop for this special day, with its rustic charm, rolling hills, and lush vineyards offering a romantic, natural setting for their wedding.

The day began with a traditional Vietnamese tea ceremony, an important part of the marriage process where the couple shows respect to their families and ancestors while seeking blessings for their future. Surrounded by close family, Cris and Jenny served tea to their parents and elders, a heartfelt moment that reinforced their family bonds and commitment to each other.

Afterward, the couple transitioned to more traditional Western wedding attire and exchanged personal vows that left everyone in tears—clearly, these two were ready to start their future together. Guests were then treated to a cocktail hour with signature drinks and appetizers, all while enjoying the stunning panoramic views of the vineyards at Vine Hill House.

Since we captured all formal portraits before the ceremonies, the newlyweds were able to relax and enjoy the evening with their family and friends. Their joy and love for each other were evident in every smile. We even had time to take some breathtaking bride and groom portraits just before sunset, making the most of the picturesque surroundings.

Congratulations to Jenny + Cris on such a beautiful day!
