TPI CONGRATULATES TWO FAMILY MEMBERS
Join us in congratulating TPI family members Sandy Reynolds and Daniel Morris, who were joined in marriage at a small, private ceremony on November 24, 2017. This joyful celebration took place in the Jacuzzi Family Vineyards in Sonoma, California and was conducted by a long-time friend of the couple. After the ceremony, the couple celebrated by sharing a wine-paired, five-course dinner in the barrel room of the winery with a small group of friends and family.
