The Modern Vibe of Evanelle Vineyards

There is a sense of modern but rustic elegance to Evanelle Vineyards that is obvious when you pull up to the welcoming embrace of the Italian-inspired barn doors. The venue is nestled in Fresno's wine country and is full of a romantic atmosphere and lush vineyards. What we love about this venue is the blank canvas you get from the reception area and wedding ceremony site. You have to see for yourself how beautiful it is! We love how this whole place has a naturally modern feel, but it can be transformed into whatever your wedding calls for.

A Real Wedding at Evanelle Vineyards

When Alexis first reached out to us, she was still on the hunt for the perfect wedding venue. Her and her fiance, Phillip had their heart set on a Tuscan-style wedding, but wanted something local, which can be a challenge in the Central Valley! However, we immediately thought of Evanelle Vineyards for this special event.

The sprawling vineyards, Tuscan-style doors, and inviting ambiance at Evanelle Vineyards made it the perfect choice for Alexis and Phillip's wedding. From the charming bridal suite for getting ready photos, the outdoor lawn for their ceremony, and the modern elegant reception area, every corner of Evanelle Vineyards exudes the ideal wedding space.

Alexis had a deep desire to have every moment of her wedding day captured in a timeless manner. It was truly an honor for us to be trusted with the task of being their wedding photographer and documenting their beautiful love story. We felt privileged to be a part of such a meaningful occasion.

It took a team to make this dream wedding day come together! A huge shout-out to Gio and the team at Olive and Grace for their wedding planning. Gio did an amazing job not only executing the details and design of this day but also taking fantastic care of her clients, Alexis and Phillip. No joke - at one point Gio was feeding ice cream to the bride. Gio is a must-have Wedding Coordinator for your wedding day!
