Zoey & Chris at Monserate Winery

June 9, 2025 · Monserate Winery, Fallbrook

A Monserate Winery Wedding in Fallbrook

Zoey and Chris love films and dramas, traveling together and their golden retriever Harper, who had a big job on the wedding day. On June 9, 2025, they married at Monserate Winery in Fallbrook, surrounded by vineyards, olive trees and moody florals in blush and plum. The day held a first look at the villa, a ceremony beside the waterfall with Harper bringing the rings, a wine box sealed during the vows, a champagne tower in the courtyard, a song from a friend and a live painter capturing the night. Here is their Monserate Winery wedding, photographed by One and Only Production.

The Details and Zoey Gets Ready

Moody florals, sage ring boxes and Zoey's heels started the morning. She got ready in the villa's bridal suite, then stepped out onto the staircase and the hillside above the vineyard.

First Look at the Villa

Chris waited outside the villa with his back turned until Zoey walked up behind him. Their first look happened right below the balcony.

Portraits Around Monserate Winery

We spent time in the vineyard rows, the rose garden and along the pond, with views over the hills of Fallbrook and a cocktail toast in between.

Harper the Ring Bearer

Harper wore a tuxedo collar and bow tie for the day, and he was every bit as happy to be there as Zoey and Chris were.

Ceremony by the Waterfall

Zoey and Chris said their vows on the lawn in front of the stone waterfall, with Harper walking the rings down the aisle. They sealed a wine box during the ceremony before sharing their first kiss and walking back up the aisle to cheering guests.

Reception in the Courtyard

Long tables filled the stone courtyard under the olive trees, set with lamps, taper candles, green napkins, wax sealed menus and purple and blush florals.

Games, Live Painting and the Night

Guests jumped into reception games while a live painter worked in the barrel room. We ended with a few night portraits in the courtyard under the villa lights.
