Check Out This Epic 50th Birthday Bash in Wine Country

What do a luxurious golf club, a popular 80’s musician, and yours truly have in common? We were all part of a rad 50th birthday celebration!

I recently shot at a new-to-me venue in Santa Rosa, and you can tell from my photos that I was in awe of the surroundings. Every once in a while I become mesmerized by the sights and sounds when I’m in a new place, and my galleries will include a few extra shots of gorgeous landscaping, or buildings. The Mayacama Golf Club was one such venue. It’s a truly stunning setting for an event. Like a 50th birthday party for twin brothers, Alex and Andrew!

Not only did these brothers choose an epic location for their party, but they also made every detail stand out. The table settings, the floral arrangements, the food – everything was as awesome as the venue itself. Including the performance by 80’s musical star, Stan Bush!
