Emma + Quaid

Emma and Quaid brought classic charm and effortless elegance to their vineyard wedding at GreenGate Ranch. With the natural beauty of the property as their backdrop, they embraced a warm, neutral palette that felt both timeless and intimate—perfectly suited to our rustic-yet-refined setting. Starting the weekend with a rehearsal dinner on our Ranch House lawn, Emma and Quaid capitalized beautifully on what our property has to offer.

Framed by soft florals and the golden tones of summer, Emma and Quaid said I do under blue skies with our pond as a stunning backdrop. The reception followed in front of our iconic barn, transformed with elevated décor, neutral colors, and thoughtful design touches that made guests feel right at home. Planner and designer Embark Event Design brought Emma’s “quintessential vineyard” vision to life by utilizing creamy white florals by ADORNMENTS Flowers + Finery , pops of olive, and lots of textures (think oversized woven baskets, wood accents, and lush bundles of olive branches).

What made this wedding truly shine was its seamless fusion of classic style with a relaxed California spirit. Emma and Quaid’s love was the heart of the celebration, but the design, the setting, and the incredible team of vendors brought it to life in the most beautiful way.

We’re so honored to have hosted this stunning day and thrilled to see it featured on Style Me Pretty.

We are thrilled to announce that one of our most memorable wedding weekends has been featured in BRIDES! Shaina and David’s early September wedding was nothing short of magical, and we are honored to have been part of their special day. With her impeccable attention to detail and creative vision, Vanessa Noel Events transformed Greengate Ranch and Vineyard into the perfect setting for their dream wedding. Every detail was meticulously crafted to create a memorable experience.

The festivities began with an intimate Rehearsal Dinner on Friday evening, set against the stunning views of our vineyards. The ambiance was warm and inviting, echoing the late summer sunshine that inspired the decor. Their closest loved ones dined at a long table adorned with a vibrant array of fruits and floral centerpieces curated by Jenn Sanchez Design, along with custom menus by Emily Baird Design, adding a refreshing and distinctive touch.

Later that evening, the couple hosted a welcome party with a Hawaiian theme, a nod to their engagement trip to Maui. Guests enjoyed tropical rum cocktails hand crafted by Sidecar Cocktail Co., delicious food truck fare, and tables decorated with palmetto palms and grapes under bistro lighting.

Shaina and David’s wedding day was a blend of rustic charm and sophisticated elegance. The ceremony took place on the Grand Lawn, where potted plants and trees created a meadow-like atmosphere. Guests watched as Shaina’s dad walked her down the aisle to Daniel Jang’s violin cover of “Can’t Help Falling in Love.” The couple exchanged heartfelt vows under our serene walnut tree.

As part of their special day, Shaina and David snuck away in a 1997 NAS Land Rover Defender in British Green, perfectly complementing the rustic yet elegant vibe of their wedding. This classic vehicle provided a stunning backdrop for some of their most cherished portraits taken by their photographer Brandon Kidd, adding a touch of adventure and timeless style to their celebration.

The reception at The Stables transformed the space into an urban restaurant feel with white banquettes, warm velvet draping, and modern floor lamps. Guests dined at tables with stoneware plates, custom menus, and white floral centerpieces. The dessert table featured a cookies and cream wedding cake adorned with flowers and a figurine of their dog, Lucy.

The couple’s first dance to “You and Me” by Lighthouse, their middle school slow dance song, brought their love story full circle. Family played a central role in their celebration, with highlights including David’s 105-year-old grandmother and Shaina’s Grandpa Bruce singing “Love Me Tender.”

The day after the wedding, guests enjoyed an al fresco brunch on the Grand Lawn, complete with a lounge area, striped umbrellas, and a variety of brunch options. It was the perfect way to wind down and celebrate the newlyweds.

We are honored to have hosted Shaina and David’s wedding at Greengate Ranch and Vineyard, and we wish them a lifetime of happiness.
