Christine & Michael: A summer vineyard wedding in Santa Ynez, Ca - WICU12/WSEE Erie, PA News, Sports, Weather and Events

in partnership with

THE BRIDE: Christine, 31, a project developer at KGRA
THE GROOM: Michael, 42, a partner at Ernst & Young
THE DATE: July 31

Though they'd only visited a couple of times to go wine tasting, Christine and Michael loved everything about the Santa Barbara area, especially Old Mission's rustic charm.

As a nod to her Chinese ethnicity, Christine started the color palette with deep reds and brightened it up with shades of pink.

The Escort Cards

Tiny cards shaped like cherry blossoms hung from a tree for guests to take. A red birdcage added a vintage touch to the table.

The Cocktail Hour

Blue cheese, basil and cherry tomato tarts were a savory choice for the cocktail hour.

The Bridesmaid Dresses

While the bridesmaids wore one-shoulder dresses in merlot, the junior bridesmaids stood out in pink.

The Cake

Fresh pink flowers decorated the square all-white cake.
