Family First, and Love Always

 

 

Jessica and her bridesmaids had a ball in our Bridal Suite putting on the final touches before the ceremony.

 

Laughter was ringing off the historic vaulted ceilings and could be heard all the way do to the reception area!

 

 

Instead of a First Look with her soon-to-be-husband, Jessica arranged the special surprise for her Father!

 

There were no dry eyes in a thirty-foot radius as she tapped his shoulder, and he got to see his daughter as a Bride.

 

 

In the Groom’s Room, Mike helped their son, Maverick, clean up for the big event!

 

 

Just like his son, Mike looked so sharp in a navy blue suit!

 

 

Lining up for the ceremony, Studio 7 Photography caught the ringbearer contemplating the depth of his responsibility.

 

 

Reunited at last, the love birds were overjoyed to finally tie the knot!

 

 

This patio is highly flexible, feeling like the perfect size for these smaller ceremonies as well as the big ones!

 

We’re in love with this fresh new angle the photographer used.

 

 

With the heartfelt vows finished, Mike and Jessica said their “I Do’s” and it was official: they were pronounced husband and wife!

 

 

Snowberry Studio was the mastermind behind Jessica’s stunning bohemian inspired white bouquet.

 

 

With plenty of space to entertain, cocktail hour was down at our main reception area where guests could eat, drink, and explore the grounds.

 

Personal Touch Dining provided all the place-settings and helped set up each table with their keen eye for details.

 

 

Snowberry Studio had a field day–pun intended– setting up the centerpieces with fresh wildflowers and loads of fragrant eucalyptus just like the kinds that grow naturally here at the Ranch!

 

We love this eclectic assortment of delicate vases too.

 

Each guest received a personal-sized bottle of hot sauce as their wedding favor, along with a sweet message from the grateful Bride and Groom.

 

 

Inside our quaint Cabana, every flat surface held a photo or memorable decoration from a family member of the Bride and Groom.

 

 

Such sweet sentiments and happy memories fit perfectly displayed in this space.

 

 

After some family photos with Studio 7, the newlyweds were ready to rejoin the party with a Grand Entrance.

 

We love this perspective from behind Mike and Jessica. It reminds us that these two have chosen to weather whatever the future decides to throw at them, together.

 

Studio 7 also provided a photo booth for the night and everybody had a blast posing in some funky accessories with silly signs!

 

 

The night flew by and when it was finally time to cut the cake, the sweet little personal cake from Flour Power looked almost too cute to eat!

 

Personal Touch Dining provided the rest of the desserts for the dessert bar and every variety of sweet was available for guests to taste!

 

 

We’re sure the future has nothing but adventure and unlimited possibilities for this gorgeous couple.

From all of us here at the Ranch, we wish them nothing but the best.

 

 

Thanks to all the talented vendors who helped us make another magical moment!

We can’t do what we love without your continuous commitment to excellence.

Romantic Greecian Ranch Wedding

 

 

 

Rachael Consaul Photography treated us to yet another heart-stoppingly gorgeous bunch of photos from Meagan and Chad’s big day here at the Ranch!

 

 

These two were nothing but wonderful through the whole planning process with our talented and appreciative Event Coordination Team.

 

Even before meeting them in person, we could tell they’d be a dream to work with, and they did not disappoint!

 

 

Chad and his groomsmen took the traditional approach with sharp black suits and bowties with Chad in a Navy Blue version!

 

 

This blue theme carried over to the bridesmaids, who all had varying shades of a soft slate blue, a fabulous color for all types!

 

 

The love birds had their first look in the Hacienda’s central courtyard, and the love in their eyes had us all reaching for some tissues!

 

Just so sweet!

 

 

Rachael Consaul Photography then took the happy couple out and about for a quick photoshoot before the ceremony and captured these two in their natural environment: hopelessly in love.

 

 

Posies Floral Co. helped Meagan and Chad decorate the ceremony space with more of the intrinsic desert-style the Ranch already invokes but added a little coastal flair!

 

Our Hacienda Ceremony location is ideal for a larger crowd and that iconic backdrop.

 

Reminiscent of a coastal Grecian villa, the terracotta and painted pots held some masterfully artistic arrangements from Posies Floral Co. 

 

Embellished with the sandy-gold woven lanterns, the aisle was dressed and ready for the big moment!

 

 

Guests were encouraged to enjoy a pre-ceremony Prosecco Welcome Drink, provided by Personal Touch Dining, and snag a fan from the Bride and Groom.

 

 

Meagan was a vision in white as she walked down the aisle, and after exchanging some tender vows, they were pronounced Husband and Wife!

 

 

Rachael Consaul Photography captured the “We Did It” Glow!

We’ll never get enough of this stuff.

 

Posies Floral Co. also added their creative touch to the place card and dining tables, and we are in love with all this royal blue and white!

 

Chad and Meagan decided to use stunning hand-painted tiles instead of place cards for each guest!

 

 

Guests were enticed by the promise of free food and a hosted bar down in the main event space for cocktail hour, thanks to Personal Touch Dining.

 

 

On the dining tables, Posies Floral Co., Personal Touch Dining, and the happy couple collaborated to create a sensational tablescape!

 

 

Chad and Meagan provided the blue glass water pitchers and silver or white gossamer linens to accentuate their overall motif.

 

Posies Floral Co. brought lush romantic floral arrangements with a soft neutral pallet and textured greens to each tabletop.

 

Alongside some blue and gold candles to add just a pop of color, the whole collection was fresh and trendy while keeping to its romantic origins.

 

 

SoCal Wander Bus thrilled guests with their wide variety of photo booth props for their pictures to help pass the time!

 

 

After toasts, for dinner, Personal Touch Dining treated everyone to a savory buffet of Citrus & Oregano Marinated Tri-Tip with extra spicy Horseradish Cream Sauce and Tomato Corn Relish, or Mediterranean Chicken with Asparagus Parmesan Risotto.

 

The Farmer’s Market Salad with Tender Greens, chopped tomatoes, Sliced Almonds, Roasted Red Peppers, Parmesan Cheese, and a Lemon Herb Vinaigrette Dressing went perfectly with the overall theme as well.

 

 

 

Flour Power baked the sweetest little cake topper for these love birds while Personal Touch Dining decorated our dessert bar with some tasty treats!

Churro Shooters, Chocolate Cake bites, Cheesecake Bites, Lemon Bars, Blondie Bars, Donuts, and Donut Holes framed the happy couple in this stunning shot.

 

 

 

Bill Calhoun Mobile Music helped Meagan perform her rendition of Grease’s “You’re the One that I Want,” much to her hubby Chad’s delight!

 

 

In response, Chad’s ride-or-die guys serenaded Meagan and officially welcomed her into the family.

 

 

Bill Calhoun Mobile Music then opened the dancefloor and kept everybody grooving for the rest of the night!

 

 

Finally, after the last song, guests lined up in front of the Hacienda, where the ceremony was held and tossed flower petals as the happy couple made a quick dash for their get-away car!

 

 

We loved working with these two and know they have the brightest future together ahead of them!

 

Huge thanks to all the incredible vendors mentioned for their consistent excellence and devotion to our clients.

 

We couldn’t do it without you!

Special thanks to Personal Touch Dining for the Management, Coordination, and Catering of all our special events!

All In The Details, Darling!

 

 

Amy and Sean had some of the most thoughtful personal details planned out for their big day here at our beloved Ranch!

 

For example, don’t miss Amy’s dress with the tiny bits of antique lace intermixed in the layers of her skirt.

 

 

Their custom-built ring box, plucked from a fairy forest floor, enchanted us!

 

One of our favorite little details were the wine bottles meant for messages instead of a sign-in book!

 

Each of the six bottles had custom-printed labels for a specific occasion in the future.

When those events came around, the love birds would uncork the bottles and read the well-wishes from their family and friends.

 

So thoughtful and unique!

 

 

Down the ceremony aisle, vibrant floral arrangements from Snowberry Studios framed the scene for the main event!

 

 

This bridal party had a couple of quirky details as well.

 

Amy had a Bridesman, and Sean had a Groomswoman!

 

 

 

What’s a flower girl without a flower crown?

 

This tiny wreath-decked angel stole the hearts of every guest!

 

 

 

 

After the heartfelt ceremony, guests were encouraged to enjoy the cocktail hour hosted by Personal Touch Dining.

 

This gorgeous rustic-chic seating chart perfectly displays the luxurious and romantic motif the happy couple sought!

 

 

 

Don’t think we missed the gold flatware and glass chargers.

 

We love it when couples take the extra time to think about their tablescape!!

 

 

To go with their rustic-chic look, Amy and Sean brought in The Photobus to keep guests busy with pictures and wild props throughout the night.

 

DJ Nick Weiss transitioned effortlessly from singing and playing guitar for the ceremony to rocking the main dance floor.

 

 

Everyone in attendance was lucky enough to witness another one of Leo Carrillo Ranch’s spectacular sunsets, with an extra twist!

 

The clouds parted and revealed a double rainbow, which made for some one-in-a-lifetime pictures snagged by Harmony Haft Photography.

 

 

 

We’re so excited for these two and their bright future ahead of them!

 

Honored that they chose to celebrate with us, we wish them all the best.

 

 

 

Thanks to all the vendors who helped this event run so smooth!

Come with us on a journey through a rustic, wild Ranch Wedding!

 

 

Ashley Gabrielson, of AshGabes Photography, caught Loren looking incredible with her vintage-inspired dress in our Bridal Suite with all of its antique splendor!

 

She and her band of beautiful bridesmaids rocked the “mismatched” look, we love the romper pantsuit!

 

 

Johnathan, who goes by Nano, followed the ladies and also had his groomsmen in mismatching suits!

 

The happy couple chose to have a First Look in the Hacienda!

The ceremony out on the Wash House Patio was heartfelt, romantic, and had everyone rolling with laughter.

 

When the love birds finally sealed their vows with a kiss, the area went wild!

 

 

Almost too wild!

 

Our peacocks are always trying to crash the party, nothing stands between them and a good time.

 

 

Don’t mind us, we’ll just keep basking in this “I Do” glow!

 

Always one of the best parts of these days.

 

 

A quiet moment alone after the ceremony is a chance for the happy couple to catch their breath after the rush.

 

 

But you’re never alone for long with friends like these!

 

The groomsmen wanted to show Nano their support of his choice in Loren.

 

 

The ladies were all so excited, they could tell Nano was the right guy for their bestie.

 

 

The floral arrangements for each bridal party member and the table centerpieces were all from Kendra’s Floral Design.

 

 

These frosty proteas are gorgeous, and quickly gaining popularity with our rustic weddings for their desert vibe.

 

 

Guests welcomed these two onto the dance floor for their first, but nobody was prepared for their surprise dance routine!

 

 

Sound Prodigy is one of our favorite party-savvy vendors to work with.

 

DJ Pat knows how to keep the dance floor busy all through the night!

 

 

 

For dessert, Nano and Loren asked the ever-talented Personal Touch Dining to make some of their famous churros!

Freshly fried on-site, the churro station comes with whipped cream, caramel, and chocolate syrup to put even the most resilient sweet tooth to rest.

 

 

This group was so much fun to host here at The Ranch.

We adored working with Loren and Nano, and we wish them nothing but the brightest joy in their future together!

 

 

 

Thanks to all the amazing vendors who helped us pull off yet another fantastic event!

Special thanks, as always, goes to Personal Touch Dining  for the coordination, venue management, and catering of all our special events.

Love as Colorfully as You Can!

 

 

This gorgeous artist always knew she wanted her special day to be as bright and lively as possible.

Our humble Ranch, with its soft tans, white, and gentle blues, was the perfect blank canvas!

 

 

Every color of the rainbow represented proudly by Claudia’s bridesmaids glowed through their assorted retro dresses and complimentary shawls.

We can’t think of a better photographer for such a vibrant arrangement than True Photography!

They spent the whole day with the happy couple capturing the essence of their special day.

 

But the fun wasn’t only for the ladies!

Reggie had his groomsmen all decked out in matching vests and ties to their partnering bridesmaids.

 

 

This gorgeous one-of-a-kind arch was assembled and decorated off-site,

then carried down to the ceremony location by loving family and friends eager to help with the day’s preparations!

 

 

During the ceremony, Reggie and Claudia made sure to personalize their vows by symbolically uniting their pasts to their shared future.

A sapling lime tree lovingly sprinkled with soil from each love bird’s childhood home, represented the future growth of Claudia and Reggie’s family and love.

 

 

After the tree-planting ceremony, the happy couple sealed their vows with a kiss, and were pronounced Husband and Wife!

 

Guests were encouraged to enjoy cocktail hour where Personal Touch Dining refreshed thirsty guests with craft cocktails,

and Can Ham Photobooth helped continue the retro flair and entertained with wild props for the best photos!

 

 

This glamorous couple left no detail untouched and personally crafted the centerpiece decor for the dining tables!

Each lantern, succulent pot, mini pinata, and personalized maraca was meant for the guests to take home as favors!

Everything was color coordinated, as you could have guessed, and our fantastic team of coordinators helped arrange everything exactly how they wanted it.

 

 

After the toasts, Personal Touch Dining dished out some amazing authentic Mexican cuisine, complete with every imaginable taco topping!

The floral accents and Claudia’s incredible bouquet were from La Belle Bloom, and we are so impressed with how well everything fit together with their wild decor!

 

Our little cabana never looked so vibrant!

Between the decorations provided by Reggie and Claudia, to the spectacular cake from Flour Power, the motif blended effortlessly.

The happy couple also provided some of their favorite sweets for guests to accompany the cake!

 

 

While these two escaped the party for a romantic photoshoot, DJ Bill Calhoun kept the guests rocking on the dancefloor the rest of the night!

 

We are so excited about this lovely couple, and we know their future will be as bright and full of life as their wedding day.

 

Thanks to all the fantastic vendors who helped make this day flow so effortlessly!

Special thanks go to Personal Touch Dining for the Management, Coordination, and Catering of all our special events!

DIY Done Right!

Danny and Kate poured their hearts into every detail of their wedding day.

Kate spent years meticulously combing over antique shop treasures, collecting the perfect decor to turn her dream into a reality here at the Ranch.

 

During their first look, the anticipation nearly killed Danny, and his excitement was infectious.

When Kate finally rounded the corner, Danny’s face was priceless.

We had to get a close-up!

 

 

All the genuine shock and awe are tangible in this picture and it instantly makes our job worth it.

You can’t get this anywhere else!

 

 

They’re too cute!

How do we bottle this feeling? We’d make millions!

 

 

After their first look, their friends in the Bridal Party were able to get in on the action and had some fun with  Jordan Elizabeth Photography.

 

 

Kate and her Bridesmaids brought the fire with those sassy shades and sleek champagne dresses!

 

 

The ceremony was out in front of our Hacienda, and we LOVE it when clients utilize its natural rustic charm!

 

Here’s Danny, melting our hearts, yet again, with love just pouring out of his face.

We can only take so much, Danny! Jeez.


Kate’s brother officiated the ceremony and, as we had come to expect, there wasn’t a dry eye in the crowd during the exchange of vows.

 

 

 

 

This shot is simply perfection.

 

 

And how could we not include the “After Glow” moment?

It’s one of our guilty pleasures!

 

The love birds were able to escape after the ceremony to revel in their first moments as Husband and Wife together while the rest of the guests were encouraged to enjoy cocktail hour with tasty refreshments and appetizers from Personal Touch Dining.

 

The gorgeous floral arrangements and Kate’s stunning bouquet were from the talented Chic Pink Petals Designs and Events.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We can’t help but be impressed by how perfectly her bouquet goes with our vibe here at the Ranch!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Kate also has the right eye for detail, and she took our rustic-chic look to a new level with all the hand made decor she worked on for this big day.

 

The Seating Chart, hand-crafted by this brilliant Bride, blew us away with the macrame mixed with the brass from the frame. It’s just spectacular!

 

 

Each guest’s name was on a small plaque tied into the design and demonstrates the time and effort she put into making everything look just right.

 

 

The Head Table, framed in the same greenery that grows naturally all around our beautiful venue, looked like something out of a fairy tale.

 

Kate collected every water goblet, charger, and napkin herself!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

She knew the exact look she wanted and went for it, obviously with stunning results.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

She also brought a customized cake server, hand made all the table numbers and the guest book!

Round of applause for this amazing DIY Bride!

 

 

After a quick round of toasts, Personal Touch Dining served an amazing Taco Bar buffet where guests had loads of topping choices to customize their meals!

 

 

As soon as everyone ate, it was time to let loose!

 

DJ Manny from Sound Illusions rocked the dance floor and kept the guests grooving all night long.

 

Everyone jumped in line for a chance at their photoshoot in Rumor Photo Media’s photo booth.

 

 

For dessert, Danny and Kate cut a small cake topper from Flour Power and had Personal Touch Dining cook up some fresh churros for their guests!

 

 

 

 

 

 

The churro station was self serve and came with caramel sauce, fresh vanilla whipped cream, and chocolate syrup.

 

 

 

These two certainly left an impression on us as well as on the Ranch as a whole.

Anytime this much love comes around the whole park comes alive!

 

We just wanted to thank Kate and Danny for choosing to spend their special day with us.

We loved having them.

 

Huge thanks also go out to all the vendors mentioned for making the day fly by so flawlessly!

Especially Personal Touch Dining for Catering, Coordinating, and Managing all our events here at the Ranch!

Love the Earth as You Would Each Other

These two Earth-conscious love birds didn’t let the craziness of wedding planning distract them from their constant efforts to be as eco-friendly as possible.

Lindsey and her Bridesmaids looked so elegant in their color-coordinated gowns!

We love the depth of this option for dresses offers through pictures.

John and his Groomsmen also looked very sophisticated in their dark blue suits.

The wedding colors were prominent, but not overdone, resulting in a very tasteful presence.

The centerpieces and other floral arrangements from Cherry Blossom Floral Designs had a magnificent pure beauty and grace.

The Farm Tables the happy couple chose to go with looked like they belonged in our large open dining area!

All the tables needed for decoration were eucalyptus runners and some classic lanterns for the centerpieces!

We love the idea of having the Mason Jar water glasses; it adds a playful feeling to an otherwise traditional motif.

For their wedding favors, each guest received an aluminum engraved reusable straw.

This gift was perfect for Lindsey and John’s Earth-friendly lifestyle.

These two are just the sweetest.

During their first dance, their love could be felt by the whole party.

For dinner, Personal Touch Dining served food from four different food stations where guests could choose the dishes they preferred, or have all four!

(Between Herbed Chicken Roulade, Fresh Grilled Quesadillas, Short Ribs with Waffle Fries, and Salmon with a Coconut Curry Sauce everyone went home more than well-fed.)

Have we mentioned our iconic sunsets?

Not to sound too biased, but they’re some of the best in San Diego.

So we’re thrilled Meurer Image Photography helped prove us right!

Flour Power provided a dainty cake topped for Lindsey and John to cut together

which Personal Touch Dining helped supplement with a fantastic Ice Cream Sundae Station accompanied by a mountain of incredible topping choices!

Thank you, John and Lindsey, for choosing our beloved Ranch to spend your special day!

Your love for each other and the Earth is a shining example of what our futures could be if we put our hearts into it.

Thanks to all of the vendors for the hard work and excellent professionalism as always!

Special thanks to Personal Touch Dining for Managing, coordinating, and Catering all our events.

We all want

That Sunday Kind of Love

Emily and Rose were an absolutely gorgeous couple and we were so honored they chose to spend their special day with us here at the Ranch!

 

 

 

The floral arrangements were all the masterful work of Bloom Babes,

the colors perfectly complimented their Turquoise and Ivory color scheme.

 

 

The Two Brides got ready separately in our bridal party areas in preparation for the First Look!

 

Then True Photography took the lovely ladies out exploring around the grounds for some excellent photo oppurtunities.

 

We love how well True Photography always captures priceless candid moments like this one!

 

The ceremony was in front of our grand pepper tree and The Brides walked each other

down the aisle to the cheers of their family and friends.

 

 

 

After the ceremony, down at the reception area, The Photo Bus was ready and waiting to entertain guests during cocktail hour.

 

 

 

These two loved to laugh and their joy spread throughout the night, lifting up the spirits of everyone present.

 

 

 

Personal Touch Dining provided Rose and Emily’s choice of a full Taco Bar and Buffet!

Guests were able to customize their taco toppings and serve themselves heaping helpings of sides like the Cilantro-Lime Rice, an Enchilada Bake, and a Spicy Spinach Salad.

 

Flour Power treated the Brides to a delicious Raspberry Champagne Cake Topper

while Personal Touch Dining stuck with the Spanish theme and served guests fresh Churros!

These deep-fried delights were doused in cinnamon sugar and paired with lots of fun sauce options to drizzle on top.

 

 

Thanks again to Emily and Rose for wanting to spend your big day with us!

We loved celebrating your love and wish you two all the best!

 

We also appreciate all the hard work of our vendors mentioned above, we couldn’t have done it without you all.

Special thanks to Personal Touch Dining for Managing, Coordinating, and Catering our events!

South African Ranch Recreation!

Albert and Carly were a wonderful couple who brought an impressive number of their guests all the way from South Africa!

Carly and her Bridesmaids finished getting ready in our welcoming little bridal suite…
…and then went exploring with Swan Photography, a destination wedding photography husband and wife team, to find some priceless photo-op. spots!
All of the gorgeous floral arrangements were from the talented Flowr Box Designs and we love those bright pops of fuschia and peach!
The Groomsmen also got ready separately here at our Ranch and the photographers coordinated to make sure the Bride and Groom couldn’t sneak any peeks of each other before the ceremony!
These guys kept us all in stitches and the whole day was bursting with love and laughter.
The Ceremony was serenaded by the melodious Nick Weiss, one of our favorite DJs here at the Ranch, and he couldn’t have looked more at home!

Gotta make sure we included “The Glow” or “We Did It” shot!

This thoughtful and fun customized sign from Carly and Albert had some very important translations to make sure there were no language barriers during the rest of the festivities!
Here we see more of Flowr Box’s magic down at the reception site!
The dining area had a simple layout and a clean and soft tablescape with lots of cornflower blue and white.
Carly looks stunning poised in front of our beautiful bougainvillea.
After an adorable and lively first dance, Albert and Carly got to sit and enjoy dinner!
Personal Touch Dining served the happy couple’s choice of Mediterranean Chicken and Marinated Grilled Tri-Tip with Wild Rice Pilaf and Fresh In-Season Veggies.
After dinner, everyone joined the love birds on the dance floor!
A quick break from dancing allowed the cake, from Flour Power, to be cut and churros freshly fried on-site, by Personal Touch Dining, to be available instead of cake for the rest of the guests.
We just wanted to thank Carly and Albert for choosing to spend their special day with us here at the Ranch!
We loved working with them and their family and wish them all the best in the years to come.
Special thanks to all of our wonderful vendors mentioned above as well!
The night couldn’t have gone so smoothly without you all.
Special thanks to Personal Touch Dining who Manages, Caters, and Coordinates all our Events!

Photo by Chana and Don provided these fantastic pictures of one of our favorite weddings!

 

 

We’ve used pictures of Ashley and Kris’ wedding as examples of some fun and original ways to decorate and display a couple’s personal touch on their wedding.

 

 

Like at most of our weddings and receptions, their ceremony was on our upper patio in front of the historic Wash House and gorgeous pepper tree.

We love this angle that Chana and Don used!

 

After the ceremony, Personal Touch Dining offered libations and appetizers to the hungry guests.

 

 

Their Seating Chart is just one of the reasons we use their photos as an example of what a little imagination can bring to a common item!

Custom built by the family, this seating chart was definitely an eye-catcher and the gentle ombre of each guest’s name card sets our yearly goals aesthetically!

 

Their tablescape was on-point too!

 

These farm tables are so versatile and the centerpieces from Splendid Sentiments are the perfect size for that uncluttered classy look.

 

 

To entertain the crowd, they brought in The Photo Bus fully equipped with props and loads of fun!

 

 

 

Flour Power brought in yet another delicious confectionery delight and Personal Touch Dining sweetened the deal with extra take-away bites while they cut the cake!

 

 

These favors were adorable, plus the jar can be re-used at home when the candy is gone!

 

 

Just wanted to thank Kris and Ashley for choosing us to spend their big day with!

So much effort and collaboration went into making this night flawless and we couldn’t have done it without the other awesome vendors who were there with us!

Finally, huge thanks to Personal Touch Dining for Managing, Coordinating, and Catering all our events!
