Greengate Ranch & Vineyard Wedding

April 1, 2015

Photo in the Vines Bouquet Bride and Groom

Greengate Ranch & Vineyard Wedding is an unbelievably piece of property ~ and on this piece of property there are several beautiful sights…vineyard, horses, rolling green hills, vistas & least of all, some beautiful homes.

I had the pleasure of attending another beautiful wedding at ‘The Ranch House’ at GGR&V and it was most excellent: Stephanie & Shaun kept it simple, invited along the family and enjoyed a beautiful afternoon on the ranch: tying the knot. Greengate Ranch Home

Some weddings are just “the vibe” ~ I don’t even know why, but every frame from this wedding was glorious. Probably just a beautiful couple, a glorious day and some incredible views*
*The Chateau did not hurt

Congratulations, Kiara+Brice!!!

Senbazuru—the tradition of 1,001 origami cranes at weddings—is deeply rooted in Japanese culture, symbolizing good fortune, longevity, and a thousand years of happiness. Traditionally, family and friends fold 1,000 paper cranes while sharing wishes for the couple’s future, with the 1,001st crane added as an extra blessing and a little boost of good luck.

It’s always such a treat to see meaningful cultural traditions woven into a wedding celebration. At Jackie and Ryan’s wedding, we had the privilege of experiencing not only the beauty of Japanese traditions but also the vibrant warmth of Mexican culture, showcased through incredible food, festive drinks, and an unforgettable performance by a talented Mariachi band. It was a beautiful celebration that honored both families and the traditions that shaped their story.

Elena came into our lives the way a lot of new people do these days…she responded to our request for childcare for our two-year-old ;). When we discussed the possibility of nanny-ing, we had inquired about Memorial Day weekend and whether she’d be available…to which she responded, “Unfortunately, no. I’m going to a music festival!” Turns out, we would all be in attendance ;). And from that point on, we not only found a nanny…but a friend…ahhh <3

Fast forward to last month, our daughter is now 5, and we had enough time to attend the beautiful wedding/festival celebration for Elena & Nick. The kids stayed at home, with the exception of their pup ;). ’Twas a beautiful night in the vineyard in the Edna Valley. The long table, filled with good people, full glasses of delicious wine & food, and surrounded by the vineyard and good vibes.
