For today’s #StyledShootSunday, we travel to Corteza Vineyards in Knightsen, California! This beautiful winery is owned by our friend Seniya, who for years owned Diamond Bridal Gallery, a premier bridal gown boutique in the Sacramento-area. Now, instead of styling brides-to-be, she and her family craft delicious wines in the Contra Costa county and California Delta.
We asked Seniya the inspiration behind this styled shoot, and here’s what she had to say, “Bathed in the golden glow of a California sunset, these tablescapes prove that sustainability and style are the perfect pairing. Set amongst the lush rows the vineyard, this scene celebrates organic beauty, thoughtful design, and the simple joy of gathering among the vines.”
Seniya continues, “The vision came to life through the creative collaboration of Hey Honey Photography and Luxury Picnics by T Marie. Together, they transformed the vineyard’s natural charm into an intimate, eco-luxury dining experience that perfectly captures the romance of a modern celebration.
The setting feels effortlessly elegant—a long white linen table anchored by woven chargers, neutral-toned napkins, and golden accents. Instead of traditional floral arrangements, Tatiana embraced sustainability by incorporating potted herbs and greenery as the centerpiece. Fragrant sprigs of rosemary, basil, and thyme line the table in terracotta pots, evoking a Mediterranean garden aesthetic that’s both timeless and earth-friendly. These living centerpieces can be replanted or reused, making them a beautiful alternative to cut flowers for couples seeking eco-conscious decor ideas.
As the sunlight filters through the vineyard, every detail glows—from the delicate glassware catching the light to the soft texture of linen napkins gently tied with natural twine. The result is a space that feels warm, inviting, and deeply connected to nature.
Of course, no vineyard celebration would be complete without wine. The evening features a bottle of Corteza Vineyards’ handcrafted wine, made from organically grown grapes cultivated right on the estate. The vineyard’s commitment to sustainable farming and environmental stewardship makes it the perfect match for couples who want their celebration to reflect their values as well as their style.
This gathering serves as an inspiring reminder that luxury doesn’t have to mean excess—it can mean intention, craftsmanship, and respect for the land. From the organic wine to the living decor, every detail embodies a new kind of wedding inspiration: one rooted in beauty, sustainability, and love.”
