This Fontaine Estates Winery Wedding in Naches was absolutely perfect!! The week before the wedding, I was a little concerned about the weather we were going to get, but we lucked out with the weather we had! It was an absolutely stunning day! I loved spending it with Jeremy and Aarika and their family and friends as we celebrated such a fun day!
Fontaine Estates Winery Wedding
Fontaine Estates Winery is a perfect location for a wedding! Just outside of Yakima so it’s close to town, but far enough away to make you feel like you are in wine county. It has some gorgeous views of other orchards and it’s seriously just breathtaking there! Jeremy and Aarika’s wedding was perfect there! I started with my day with the girls! One of my favorite parts of wedding days are the all the details, and all I can say is this girl has got STYLE! Her details were AMAZING! The shoes, the jewelry, HER FLOWERS including an amazing protea, everything was perfect! I spent time with the girls, made sure to say hi to the guys, and before I knew it, it was time for their first look.
I love first looks and bride and groom portraits almost just as much as details! We had a lot of photos to take in a short amount of time, but I knew with these two we would bust it out and everything would work out great! They brought their best A-game for me, and we knocked their formals out in record time. These two are seriously the cutest!
The bridesmaids looked stunning in their navy blue dresses, and their flowers from Morris Floral really just tied everything together so well! The guys looked pretty sharp in their tuxes from Men’s Wearhouse, and it was one of the funnest bridal parties I had this year!
Ceremony Time
Aarika’s dad gave her away to the man of her dreams, but not before the officiant made sure it was approved by two other people- Smith and Wesson. Aarika’s dad is a police officer, and I loved that the officiant tied that in there before he gave her away! Everyone had a good laugh, and then it was time! They said traditional vows that have stood tried and true for years to come. “For better, for worse, for richer, for poorer…”
It’s pretty obviously these two will stand true to their vows made! They kissed and it was official, but wouldn’t be complete without the recessional walking out to the Rocky intro song, complete with a celebratory jump at the top of the stairs! 😀
Like I said, these two celebrated with the support of their friends and family, the party reception was one of the funnest this year, and it wouldn’t be complete without the WSU game playing during dancing, and a sparkler sendoff at the end of the night!
Thank you Aarika and Jeremy for letting me be a part of your special day! It was amazing to see the two of you become husband and wife, and I know with God’s help, you guys with continue to do amazing things! Congrats, and have fun on your honeymoon! 😀

The bride’s dress was amazing, as is the bridal suite at Fontaines Estates Winery, but in order to get it in all it’s greatness, I stitched 19 photos together (using the Brenizer Method) to get this! 🙂
I loved this idea instead of a guest book!! They had a little calendar for everyone to put their birthdays and anniversaries in! 😀 So cute! And fun!
The cake and cupcakes were all made by the groom’s sister!! They were as delicious as they look!
No wedding is complete without Cougar football……er, something.
