Our latest feature in Carats & Cake is taking us back to Alyssa & Stephen's sweet October wedding. It’s not every weekend that our Grand Lawn is blanketed in pinks so this was a little extra fun to reminisce on!

Lovelyfest Event Design created a neutral toned oasis in the courtyard, outfitting it with rattan and mixed pattern lounges from Scout Rental Co. The disco ball lined barn doors made for an eye catching backdrop to the mixing and mingling of Alyssa and Stephen’s weddings guests while they snacked on light bites from Field to Table Catering + Events and drinks served by Copper + Crystal.

From cocktail hour, guests made their way to the sea of farmhouse tables on the Grand Lawn. Noonan’s Wine Country Designs adorned the tables with blush florals to pair with the pink linens and gold settings - a perfect complement to our famous greenery!

Guests dined well into the evening before moving the party in the barn for dancing and dessert. Come Alive Entertainment kept the crowd going all night, while Paper Cake Events delicious desserts kept them fueled - yum! This was a dream vendor team for a dream couple and we loved every minute of celebrating Alyssa + Stephen!

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.

“Set in the rolling hills of Edna Valley on a perfect Summer day, Michelle & Brendan’s wedding day was a reflection of their relationship. 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.”

- Sarah Strausser, Embark Event Design

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!

We just received the first gallery of the 2022 season and man, is it a good one. Chris and Ali celebrated their nuptials with us this past October and it was everything a Fall wedding could hope to be!

Modern bohemia met autumnal, earthy tones to create an iconic display of color and florals. The couple collaborated with two of our favorite coordinators A Lovely Creative and Embark Event Design to bring this Fall Inspired vision to life! Guests dined al fresco on the grand lawn under a canopy of lights before dancing the night away in the barn under the neon light of “The Silvermans” - a night to remember!
