Ashlyn & Bobby’s Wedding at Mount Palomar Winery | Temecula Vineyard Wedding

Driving out to Temecula always feels like a little escape. The freeways slowly melt into vineyard-lined roads, and by the time you pull into Mount Palomar Winery, you can almost hear your stress clock out for the day. Mediterranean courtyards, cypress trees, and rolling vines — it’s like Tuscany landed in Southern California.

We weren’t strangers walking in with cameras — we’d been part of their family’s celebrations for years.

Ashlyn herself is pure light — laughter spilling in the bridal suite, elegance wrapped in lace, her gown timeless yet playful. Bobby complements her perfectly — quiet, steady, and completely focused on her. Together, they create an effortless chemistry that shines in every image.

Ceremony Under Cypress Trees

Their wedding ceremony unfolded beneath Mount Palomar Winery’s iconic cypress trees, with vineyard views stretching into the distance. The natural beauty of the venue meant minimal décor was needed — the setting itself created a breathtaking backdrop.

Pro tip for winery weddings in Temecula: plan your portraits around golden hour. At Mount Palomar, sunset transforms the vines into glowing gold, providing the kind of light that makes portraits frame-worthy.
