Wow - What a ride 2021 has been and we aren’t even done yet! Coming out of 2020, nobody knew what to expect for the 2021 season and we are so happy to say that we have had one of our busiest and most exciting seasons yet. Vendors and couples came together to make some serious magic happen this last year. We still have two and a half months left in our season, but wanted to give everyone a quick update and a peak at what to expect in 2022!

This season we had one major surprise: The Stables! We renovated our old 1950s horse stables into an entirely new venue space unlike anything else in the area. As an optional add on, this all white and bright space is the perfect canvas to design your dream ceremony or reception. The glass doors make for the dreamiest lighting and one of the best views you can find in Edna Valley!

We can’t wait to see what kind of visions our 2022 brides are going to dream up in both this new space and in our classic Barn + Courtyard - we love it all! We are wrapping up 2021 and going into 2022 with a nearly fully booked calendar for the next year. We encourage any brides and grooms to come out and see the property soon if they are looking at 2022 dates… otherwise, we look forward to seeing you in 2023!!

Here’s what they had to say about us:

“Dating back to the 1800s as a dairy farm, Greengate Ranch & Vineyard has since been turned into a majestic barn + horse facility. The ranch/vineyard exclusively hosts one wedding each weekend, making this place an ideal retreat destination in San Luis Obispo. And what’s better than a weekend sipping wine by the sea?”

Check out the article and show some love for all of the venues featured. After the year we have all had it feels so good to be recognized and and share the spotlight with 40 other amazing venues. Thank you so much, Green Wedding Shoes and let’s bring on 2021!

Green Wedding Shoes | Modern Lilac + Blush Wedding With Disco Balls, Hydrangeas and Iridescent Details

Featured in Green Wedding Shoes this week is Madie and Jordan’s wedding! Madi and Jordan’s summertime celebration has Lovelyfest Events written ALL over it! From the ombre hydrangeas and disco balls to the iridescent chairs and neon signs—we are obsessed with this coordination of the couple’s vision and Lovelyfest’s creativity!

Guests were greeted by an escort display at cocktail hour that was not to be missed! The attention grabbing colors combined with the lush and light florals felt like something from another world…or at least another decade (70’s dance party, anyone?!).

Our Grand Lawn was the perfect space for all 400 guests to dine together under fairytale lights. Pinks, purples, and iridescent chairs wowed the guests as they walked over from cocktail hour. A mix of vendors were brought in to create this dreamy setting!

Honoring family and friends was the number one priority for Madi and Jordan. Madi played homage to her heritage through florals and the massive dinner party set up was perfect for guests to mix and mingle with the couple. It also gave guests, no matter where they were seated, the perfect view of Madi and Jordan’s first dance!

The icing on the [neon] cake was the hot pink sign toting the couples newly shared last name! If a pink neon sign doesn’t scream “party” I don’t know what does! Guests thought so too as they flowed into the barn to drink, dance, and celebrate Madi + Jordan!
