Walker Wedding

Kaleigh and Russell decided to host their wedding weekend in the beautiful Paso Robles wine country. The day before their wedding, they invited all 155 guests to celebrate as they embarked on an all-day wine tasting tour followed by a beautiful rehearsal dinner at Still Waters Vineyard. For their wedding celebration, they chose to say "I Do" at the the historic Santa Margarita Ranch in Santa Margarita, CA on August 11, 2012.

The intimate ceremony took place in the Estrada Garden followed by the cocktail reception. The garden was decked out with vintage furniture provided by Forever Vintage Rentals, accented with personal touches from the bride and groom. As a tribute to their families, a table was set up displaying framed photos of Kaleigh and Russell's family members. While some guests enjoyed a train ride around the property of the ranch, others had the option of playing a game of corn hole. 

Guests were greeted with champagne as they entered the historic barn for the dinner reception. The bridal party sat at one long table that ran down the center of the barn surrounded by round tables filled with friends and family members. The tables were adorned with gorgeous blooms by April Flowers and handmade table numbers created by the bride. For dinner, guests started with a local Tomato Caprese Salad followed with their choice of Five Spiced Rubbed Port Tenderloin or Wild Coho Salmon prepared by Trumpet Vine Catering. The Cakery did a phenomenal job on Kaleigh and Russell's beautiful 3-tier wedding cake which sat on a vintage table in front of a handmade fabric garland that the bride created. As the sun began to set, Jen of Jen Rodriguez Photography whisked Kaleigh and Russell away for some romantic photos in the surrounding fields of the ranch. Selah Video Productions was also there to capture the immense beauty of the couple and the entire wedding day. The bride and groom, along with all their guests danced the night away as Kramer Entertainment rocked the dance floor with the crowds' favorite tunes.

Congratulations to the Walkers...thank you so much for letting us be part of your beautiful day!

Dear Sarah,

We are so grateful for your expert coordination of our wedding at Flying Caballos Ranch. It is hard for me to decide where to start thanking you! Planning a wedding can be very overwhelming but as soon as we hired you, all of those fears and stresses subsided. You were fantastic to work with during the entire planning process. Your emails were prompt and responded to all of my concerns and requests. Your vendor recommendations were top notch. You are incredibly creative but also very flexible. You worked with us to craft our wedding vision while keeping our budget in mind. Most of all, I appreciated your organizational skills; you were great at keeping me on top of our giant list of stuff to do. On the morning of our wedding, my family couldn't believe I was going for a hike. To them, it seemed like there were a lot of things left to do. But I felt very calm; I trusted that you had everything under control. I'm sure there were some problems that came up during our wedding day but we never saw them. From our perspective, the whole event went off without a hitch! Sarah, we couldn't have done it without you. We will be forever thankful for your dedication to making our day meaningful, fun, unique, and (relatively) stress-free!

Much love, 

Carrie Northover

"Home is wherever I'm with you" was the inspiration for  Carrie and Patrick's wedding on July 30, 2011.  The Flying Caballos Ranch served as the perfect backdrop to say "I Do" and celebrate with all their closest friends and family. April Flowers designed the gorgeous wedding blooms and Jonathan from Bluephoto Wedding Photography once again did a phenomenal job in capturing the entire day. Be sure to check out his blog post for more pictures from this gorgeous wedding. I had an amazing time planning this event as it brought back so many memories of having my wedding at the ranch. I experienced such ease planning this wedding since I knew the property so well and Carrie was the most easy going bride I have ever met. Congratulations Northovers...it was such a pleasure working with you guys!

Jonathan from Bluephoto Wedding Photography did an incredible job on our wedding photos and video. Jonathan was such a pleasure to work with from our initial phone conversation & consultation and throughout the entire wedding day. While we were coming off our wedding high the next day at our post-wedding brunch, in walks Jonathan with his iPad to show us and all our family and friends the wedding video he had created the night before. We were blown away to say the least! It was such an emotional weekend and Matt and I are beyond stoked that not only do we have these amazing photos and video from the best day of our life thus far, but we are so grateful to have met Jonathan and are now able to call him a friend. Thank you SO much Jonathan for all you have done for us! We will forever recommend you to anyone looking for nothing but the best on their wedding day! Also, I wanted to thank my fellow Cal Poly Reccie, April from April Flowers for not only doing a phenomenal job on our wedding blooms but also for introducing us to Jonathan...we can't thank you enough! Here are some of my favorite shots from our Flying Caballos Ranch wedding on September 4, 2010!
