The Knot | Kayla + Cody

The Knot recently featured the remarkable wedding weekend of Kayla and Cody. This red, white, and star-themed rehearsal dinner left guests awestruck and excited to witness the couple's happily ever after. Set in the modern Stables of Greengate Ranch & Vineyard, the rehearsal dinner, catered by Field to Table Catering & Events, embraced a romantic and celestial theme.

The carefully curated decor from Bella Vista Designs featured a color palette of red and white, accentuated by the twinkling glow of fairy lights and shimmering star motifs. Epic Entertainment serenaded the gathering, setting the stage for joyous celebrations. Guests also had the opportunity to indulge in stargazing, where telescopes were set up to provide glimpses of the night sky.

From the moment guests received the invitations by Prim & Pixie, they were introduced to the couple's vision. The boxed suite, decorated with pink suede and gold accents, set the tone for the celebration's modern yet romantic theme, which was echoed throughout the event's signage by Lovely Fest.

As the wedding day unfolded, the couple transformed their rustic barn venue into a vision of understated elegance. The ceremony, draped in all-white fabric and illuminated by chandeliers adorned with flowers and vines, exuded an air of timeless beauty. The bride, Kayla, fondly recalls the ethereal atmosphere, "From the outside, it looked very rustic…but inside was gorgeous."

Kayla and Cody’s wedding design was incorporated into every minute detail, including their beautiful seating chart and wood bar. The dusty pink, gold, and wood accents stood out behind the background of Greengate’s natural lush setting.

Beyond the aesthetics, Kayla and Cody infused their heritage and family traditions into the celebration. A teepee photo booth, adorned with their names on a neon sign, paid homage to Kayla's Native American heritage, adding a personalized touch to the festivities. Additionally, the couple honored their grandparents, who had passed away, by reserving three chairs in the front row—a touching gesture that ensured their presence was felt throughout the day.

Family played a central role throughout the day, with Cody's older son, Korbin, proudly walking down the aisle as a groomsman, standing tall beside his father. Meanwhile, their youngest, Beaux, stole hearts as he bravely carried out his duties as the ring bearer.

In every moment, Kayla and Cody's wedding radiated warmth and authenticity, a testament to the love that binds families together and the beauty of honoring one's heritage. As they embark on this new chapter of their lives, they carry with them the rich tapestry of their past, weaving it into the fabric of their future.

Style Me Pretty | Michelle + Brendan

Michelle + Brendan: A modern day love story. From meeting in a dive bar to dancing the night away in our classic wooden barn, everything about these two and their love is fun, playful, and timeless!

Embark Event Design worked with the couple to create an aesthetic that played into the natural beauty of Greengate Ranch with pops of blue throughout giving that classic, yet modern and effortless wedding feel.

Filled with touches of fun and unique style, many nods to their sweet (and large!) family, and an epic dance party - the couple soaked up each moment of their perfect day with all of their favorite people.”

Their sweet ceremony at the pond let the nature do the talking with perfectly placed white florals by Noonan’s Wine Country Designs. The celebration then moved to the Grand Lawn for a cocktail hour full of refreshing drinks poured by Hitched Co. and delicious, summertime appetizers by Trumpet Vine Catering. It was a perfect summer night as cocktail hour turned into an al fresco dinner reception in the courtyard.

As Michelle and Brendan slipped away for sunset photos with Jen Rodriguez Photography, Michelle also slipped into a second dress - the sweetest surprise for Brendan! The couple roamed the vineyards of Greengate Ranch enjoying a moment away from the excitement and taking time to be present together, married. The night carried on with heartfelt speeches, cake cutting, and some serious dancing as the two families came together to celebrate the newly married couple!
