Chamomile and Curated Wine in Wedding at Sunshine Mill Winery
On a sunny, late-September day, Jonathan and Robbie exchanged vows before their nearest and dearest
August 5, 2026
It was a shared love for food and wine that first brought Jonathan and Robbie together. The pair has spent the last 15 years building a life, including celebrating that love for wine culture and community as co-owners of the beloved West Linn haunt, Taste Wine Cafe, and becoming members at multiple local wineries. So when it came time for them to tie the knot, the couple opted for the very first place they ever joined: Sunshine Mill Winery in The Dalles.
On a sunny, late-September day, Jonathan and Robbie exchanged vows before their nearest and dearest and raised a curated glass or two amid the winery’s eclectic setting and incredible views of the Columbia River Gorge. Elegant floral arrangements—artfully designed and styled by Robbie—featured yellow roses, white daisies and chamomile, paired with soft greenery and sprigs of eucalyptus.
At each table, guests were treated to bottles of wine and a custom wine-and-food pairing list that Jonathan and Robbie created. The perfect parting gifts? A wine tumbler for each guest, inscribed with the grooms’ names and a cheeky jab: “It’s about time.”
