Okay, get ready for this show stopper, dream boat wedding you are about to witness. Its been hard to not post so many from this wedding onto our social media pages, however, now you get to see first hand the magic and hard work everyone put into this day for M + P that’s scroll-worthy! These two definitely knew how to make the Ranch their own with every little element sought out to perfection. Their ceremony was probably one of the best we’ve seen with their Steer Head branded with LC adorned with an overflow of flowers around the Wash House by Siren Floral Company. Mariachi de Real San Diego made for a great addition to the ceremony and cocktail hour as well. The reception space screamed rustic and bright, especially with the added bougainvillea! Of course, like many of our couples, they opted for the famous Taco Bar that Personal Touch Dining offers that always have some guests coming back for seconds. M + P made their night fun and laid back, with dancing and mingling, and of course, snap shots in that Photo Bus. 

Thank you to Lauren Scotti Photography for these AMAZING photos.

We were so thankful to have witnessed this day in full bloom. From the planning to the execution, it all turned out to be an outcome we all could never forget!

We wish these two the best for their future and lifetime together.

These summer weddings sure are making a statement at the Ranch. H + S had a great group of people to celebrate their special day with them, especially that abundant bridal party of theirs. It was a perfect day to get married under the Oak Tree, giving the ceremony space a bright and airy feel. With a yummy dessert bar and all their detailed and rustic décor around the Ranch, brought so much life to their day! Even our friends at the Ranch made an appearance and snuck in a few photos to congratulate the new Mr. and Mrs 😉

Thank you, Audrey Rynberg Photography, for capturing their big day!

We love a good variety of ceremony options at the Ranch. Although our ever popular Pepper Tree ceremony space is the go-to, these two decided to tie the knot in front of our very own Hacienda, giving their backdrop a picturesque moment of the historic Ranch. K chose powder blue for her girls paired with those gorgeous voluminous blooms from Pinestreet Floral. A scrumptious Taco Bar set the mood for the newlyweds to indulge on, followed by a delectable three-tiered cake for their guests to enjoy. Dancing and the Photo Bus made for a great night, and these two had nothing but smiles from the start, all the way to their glow-stick Grand Exit!

Thank you, K + M, for letting us share this special day with you two!

Nichole + Josh | Featured on Green Wedding Shoes!

So excited to share ANOTHER feature from one of our favorite eclectic, vintage inspired weddings at the Ranch. Green Wedding Shoes showcased N + J’s big day that included so many elements throughout the venue. With a church ceremony and a jaw dropping reception, we were all so pleased with the outcome! A Mexican Tile seating chart paired with Mexican Table Numbers, mustard runners on Farm Tables adorned with candlesticks and flower arrangements by Evermore Floral, a vintage take on lounge furniture, and we can’t forget her grandfather’s journal entry about his wedding day to her grandmother that turned into guest napkins – these details are just to name a few!

As we are in full swing of the Fall wedding season at the Ranch, lets reminisce on some of our summer weddings, like this one! With so much light and beauty in these photos, Jen & Shane Photography wowed us with these shots throughout the Ranch for K + M’s big day. The First Look took place at the ever-popular courtyard captured with our abundant Bougainvillea arch. During their ceremony, KO Floral designed an astonishing garland to give the space an elegant touch. Along with their moms, they also shared a special candle lighting ceremony. Their choice of a three-layer naked cake made for a decadent treat for their guests after a flavorful buffet dinner. To top it off, they provided their own personal touch with a Trail Mix bar which definitely made a hit!

We thank K + M for choosing us to celebrate their special day with them, and to everyone else that played a part in making their day magical!

Personal Touch Dining’s Expansion on Harbor Island!

Over the past 30 years, wedding and event specialists Personal Touch Dining have established a stellar reputation throughout San Diego, and were recently named a 2018 San Diego Business Journal Fastest Growing Private Company. Now, the team has expanded their family of managed venues to include Harbor View Loft, a picturesque waterfront location in Harbor Island, San Diego. This magnificent property offers a stunning 300-degree view of San Diego’s Harbor, Coronado Bridge, Marina, and City Lights, and features a rooftop ceremony area, wraparound balcony, and private patio.

“The space was closed for 15 years before we recognized its potential and restored to its former glory and beyond,” remarked Tracy Zemke, Director of Sales and Marketing of Personal Touch Dining. “We are beyond excited to bring weddings, corporate functions, and private events to life at Harbor View Loft. The views are exceptional, even by San Diego standards.”

The property has a storied history on the island as its first marina, which opened its doors in 1970, and operated under names such as Barnacle Bill’s. As revitalized by the Personal Touch Dining team, Harbor View Loft now features a very modern aesthetic, with clean lines, cool gray tones and panoramic windows, as well as a full kitchen and bar. Its enviable location and proximity to San Diego International Airport make it an ideal event venue for locals, as well as for those seeking a unique destination property for a wedding or celebration.

Personal Touch Dining has over 30 years of experience creating weddings and events in the San Diego area. In addition to Harbor View Loft, they also manage the stately Mt. Woodson Castle in Ramona, and of course, our very own Leo Carrillo Ranch.

When we have a couple with so much charisma, infectious personalities, and positive energy we are bound to blog about them! A + J were truly such a pleasure to work with and they made for great company. With these photos you are about to witness from True Photography, you can see the love and beauty in each captured shot. Don’t miss that “First Look” photo under the Wash House – a new favorite spot for the couple to capture this special moment between the two!  Also, those details at the Reception with the farm tables made a perfect pop with the turquoise napkins. A little something blue goes a long way at the Ranch 🙂

Thank you, A + J, for choosing us to be apart of your special day!
