When a couple says, “We’re inspired by our love for nerdy things,” you know you’re in for a wedding that’s as heartfelt as it is fun. Amanda and Matt’s celebration at Four Corners Winery gave us all the vibes—gorgeous vineyard views, the freedom to dance under the stars or inside the venue, and just the right amount of geeky romance to make our photographer hearts melt.
A Venue That Felt Just Right
Four Corners Winery set the stage for a wedding that felt warm, personal, and absolutely beautiful. With rolling vines as a backdrop and that perfect blend of indoor-outdoor space, Amanda and Matt knew it was the one the second they stepped on-site.
It wasn’t just about aesthetics, though. This venue gave them room to breathe, dance, and soak in the joy of the day with the people they love.
A Dress Meant for the Moment
Amanda had a vision, but sometimes fate has other plans and in this case, the plan was perfect. She found the one at Catherine’s Bridal, a dress she hadn’t expected to love but couldn’t leave behind. Elegant, timeless, and totally her.
D20s, Nerdy Music & Non-Traditional Treats
Amanda and Matt made sure their day was filled with personal touches that celebrated their shared interests from nerdy ceremony music that carried emotional weight to a custom plush 20-sided dice embroidered with their initials and wedding date.
And the food? Think Mission BBQ, Valpo Velvet ice cream, and a no-rules attitude that said, “we’re here to party, not follow tradition.” It was playful, welcoming, and 100% them.
A Moment to Breathe
One of the most meaningful parts of the day? A quiet walk together through the vineyard. No guests. No cameras (okay maybe one camera). Just Amanda and Matt, soaking in the moment, hearts full, hand in hand. That simple walk became one of the memories they’ll carry forever.
Advice From the Couple
“Do what you want. Don’t let anyone tell you how to plan or decorate. Be unique and try to plan in advance.”
Simple. Solid. True. Amanda and Matt crafted their wedding around their values and personalities—and the result was an experience that felt authentic, heartfelt, and incredibly fun.
