Taco-‘Bout Some Sweet Lovin’!

Dillon and Natalie brought their closest friends and family to party the night away here at our Ranch!

After a heartfelt ceremony at our beneath our lofty Pepper Tree, the festivities started right away during cocktail hour.

Personal Touch Dining kept guests guessing what delectable treats would be coming out of the kitchen all evening!

For appetizers, their friendly staff tray-passed Mini Beef Sliders with Bacon and Creamy Blue Cheese, sweet and savory Chicken and Waffel Bites, and Mini Margherita Flatbread Pizzas all made fresh on-site.

The Taco Bar Buffet is incredibly popular with our clients and their guests for dinner, thanks to the hearty side dishes, authentic, fresh ingredients, and a rainbow of topping choices!

That evening steaming pans of Cilantro Lime Rice, authentic Black Beans, a crunchy Mexican Cesar Salad, and House-Made Tortilla Chips and Salsa paired well with the three taco options: Carne Asada, Carnitas, and Polla Asada.

Every guest, no matter their age or food preferences, will find something to love about that menu!

These happy Groomsmen pause for a quick picture, eager to get back to their table to feast!

Marisa McBride Photography caught this shot of our reception area right after the golden hour.

Our Market Lights create the perfect ambiance for guests to dine by. No extra lighting needed!

After dinner, Parent Dances with the happy couple warmed up the dancefloor for the guests, who were ready to show off their best moves.

Our complimentary Lawn Games, such as Corn Hole and Giant Jenga, are always left out for guests to enjoy all night!

The newlyweds cut their Couple’s Cake while Personal Touch Dining made sure the home-made Donut Stands stayed well-stocked!

These talented DIY love birds discovered that polished rustic copper wire, molded into the shape of a dowel, created the perfect donut stand.

Sound Prodigy knows how to keep people out of their seats and on the dance floor!

This group rocked our Ranch the rest of the night, putting in the work to make up for all those extra donuts.

We adored having Natalie and Dillon here at the Ranch, and wish them all the best in their bright future together!

Thanks to the super-star team of vendors who helped us with such a fun night!

Special thanks to Personal Touch Dining for all their hard work, Coordinating, Catering, and Managing our Venue for 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!
