If a first date starts with morning coffee and lasts through dinner, you can bet that’s a good sign. At least it was for San Diego residents Garrett Mitchell, 31, and Katelyn Olmstead, 27, who were introduced by mutual friends. After a Bachelor-inspired proposal—in which Garrett had Kate’s sister hand her a “final” rose and lead her down to the docks at Shelter Island, where he was waiting with a ring—the two married at Temecula’s Ponte Vineyard in front of 185 guests.
Perfect plants Rich plum details gave depth and texture to stunning succulent bouquets.
Chic details “We wanted a simple and classy wedding that would be timeless,” Kate says. The couple found their perfect venue at Ponte Vineyard, “an elegant winery setting for our dream wedding.”
