We are so thrilled to celebrate these sweethearts this weekend! This time, the wedding photographer will be in front of the camera as Whitney walks down the aisle to marry Payton- and we can’t wait!

Even better? We get to make it happen alongside some of our favorite fun Friendors:

Sometimes the best days are the ones spent with your closest friends ✨laughing, sharing stories, and slowing down together. Four friends did just that out here at the ranch, soaking up the views and celebrating eachother over a sweet garden high tea.

The afternoon came to life through the creative vision of Aina with Barrel and Bloom Luxury Events, and the ranch turned out to be the perfect backdrop for their Barrel & Bloom Luxury Experience. Simple, beautiful, and full of heart.

Not every barn starts life at sea — but ours did. Its bones were once part of a ship that came to rest off the coast near Oceano. Over time, the wood washed ashore, and the farmers and ranchers of the Huasna Valley hauled it inland for a brand-new purpose.

From those weathered boards, they built barns. Ours became the heart of the ranch — a little bit ocean, a little bit valley, and a whole lot of grit. Its curved silhouette still echoes the ribs of the ship it once was, a quiet reminder that every great love story has an unexpected beginning.

Today, it stands as more than just a barn. It’s a a witness to love and laughter, and a backdrop where new futures set sail. From sea to soil, it’s always been a place where journeys begin.

The garden has seen so many love stories begin—but this weekend, it bloomed with something extra special. 💫 We were honored to host a baby shower for Jessie + Justin as they prepare to welcome their little one (a journey deeply hoped for and joyfully celebrated).

Designed with so much heart by the incredible Heather Hansen and brought to life by an all-star team of friendors—we’re still swooning over the flower wall photo backdrop by Mark Luna 🌸📸!

From signature cocktails and baby bumpin’ mocktails to a cravings bar stacked with a Pickle Station and Mac & Cheese with all the fixings (dreams do come true)… every detail hit the sweet spot.

Speaking of sweet—the cake? A true work of art by the fabulous Just Baked. Elegant, edible, and almost too pretty to cut (almost).

Cheers to new chapters, tiny toes, and big dreams. Baby Boy, we can’t wait to meet you. 💛

No matter the season, golden hour in the meadow always shows up ready for its close-up.

Wild. Romantic. Endless.

And in August? The light hangs on just a little longer, stretching out those sunsets like it knows we’re not ready to say goodnight. It’s all glow, no filter, and the kind of backdrop that turns moments into memories.

Swipe through and soak it up.

Golden hour glow, heartfelt vows beneath the pepper trees, a quiet moment on the bridge, and that bouquet—Maithy + Sam’s day was pure magic from start to finish. ✨

These two brought all the romance and then some to the ranch. Cheers to a love that feels like sunshine.
