A Romantic and Intimate Garden Wedding at San Ysidro Ranch


"Our vision was an intimate garden wedding with an outdoor dinner reception to be shared with a close group of family and friends. Working with coordinator Sophie of Amazing Days Events, florist Tracey of Ella & Louie, and Maxine and Harrison of San Ysidro Ranch, the decor we chose highlighted the already romantic and intimate setting of the venue. It was exactly what we wanted! 

We had been to Santa Barbara the year before to attend a wedding, and really liked the area. The following trip we visited San Ysidro Ranch because of all the great things we’d heard. The setting and grounds of the ranch were gorgeous, and we knew right away it was the place that we wanted to be married.
With guests gathered around a stone fireplace on the patio of the wine cellar, we had an amazing dinner party after the ceremony. Everything was perfect, from the flowers and candles to the amazing food, wine, and exceptional service. An acoustic guitarist played while twinkle lights in the loquat trees canopied the guests. It was such a romantic setting - exactly what we hoped for!" -bride & groom
