May 1st was the perfect day for a wedding, and Don and Vanessa’s wedding was just that, perfect. Vanessa looked picturesque in her stunning gown. Which almost seemed to glow at times! Alicia Mink with Mink Photography was really able to capture the beauty and happiness of this couple. Congratulations Don and Vanessa we wish you a life time of love!
The Leo Carrillo Ranch wedding of Hilary and Mike was recently featured on Ruffled, a popular weding blog. The couple wanted a vibe that was “romantic and laid back,” and found the Ranch to be the perfect match, with its “vintage and handmade details.”
We are so excited to share with you that we will be managing a new venue in Carlsbad, the stunning historical Leo Carrillo Ranch! The Ranch was built by the actor, preservationist, and conservationist, Leo Carrillo, in 1937 and can accommodate up to 300 people for your special event.
