Samantha and Ricky share a beautiful story where they met in high school and fell in love. As the years passed by, their bond of love grew stronger for one another. Ricky planned to ask Samantha to be his wife and he wanted the day to be special so he invited Samantha to a lovely restaurant for dinner for the two of them. When she arrived to the restaurant, stunning as ever, he popped the question right there! Samantha was so excited (and surprised!), and she said yes to her high school sweetheart! How sweet!!

The happy couple celebrated their engagement in these photographs taken at the Domaine Chandon winery, nestled off the Saint Helena Highway in Yountville, California. This exquisite venue is one of the many beautiful wineries in the Napa Valley, with it’s beautiful architecture and stunning views of the vineyards and lavish landscapes.  

Upon leaving the winery the newly engaged couple traveled down Highway 29 to Brix, a beautiful restaurant that serves a cuisine of French-inspired foods. This remarkable restaurant is designed beautifully and takes full advantage of the sixteen-acres of vineyards and gardens surrounding the property, with breathtaking views of the mountains.

Congrats to the lovely couple! I was so happy to be a part of this special occasion!!
