Hillary + Bruce | Holly Daze Photos | Leo Carrillo Ranch

Bruce and Hillary had such an eye for details! Here at the Ranch, many of our historic buildings get overlooked by couples who favor the grandeur of the Hacienda. These two noticed the quaint get-away at the top of the hill before the Hacienda and chose that location to share a private moment for their first look!

The tiny cabin was once the Art Studio and private retreat that Carrillo built as a token of his love for his wife Deedie. Being a lover of art and shyer in personality than Carrillo, it was her quiet haven from Carrillo’s more wild lifestyle. Park guests can visit this secretive spot on the LCR Walking Tour during the park’s visiting hours to hear about her collection of Native American pottery and other hobbies.

We always love a bright flash of fuschia and yellow here at the Ranch. The bouquets and centerpieces by RHO/220 Event Designs feature some bright colors which compliment our white-washed walls and backdrop of eucalyptus trees. The peacock chairs always add a regal bohemian twist on a simplistic sweetheart table as well.

Photobooths are a fantastic way to keep guests entertained during the reception and make for instant memories to frame or put up on their fridge at home. The Photo Bus is a fun way to take the photobooth idea up a notch, and it looks super retro and cute!

Thank you, Hillary and Bruce, for choosing us to help you celebrate your amazing wedding. Thanks also to Holly Daze Photos for providing us with such beautiful photos and Nick Weiss Music for rocking the dance floor.
