Summer Malibu Wedding at Calamigos Ranch
From the bride’s Ines Di Santo gown to the ‘maids’ sparkly frocks, this wedding is a day centered on style. Bright Blue Events designed the gorgeous details, and I, for one, can’t get enough. It may be blistering cold in our part of New England, but I’m feeling pretty good about settling in for the night with Gina & Ryan’s photos and soaking up every last inch.
From Gina & Ryan Photography…We’ve been in love with Calamigos Ranch ever since we first stumbled upon it while planning our own wedding. The grounds of this Malibu ranch are gorgeous. Twinkle lights, large oak trees, pretty signage, and subtle quirks of a vintage carnival theme are sprinkled throughout the property, making this place truly unique. Even the architectural design is of it’s own. It’s a dream. And although we weren’t able to have a Calamigos Ranch wedding ourselves (tip, book your date way in advance!), we were able to relive the romance through Megan & Stanley’s breathtaking wedding.
Megan & Stanley’s vision was aimed towards simplicity, clean graphic design, and a whole lot of pretty; upscale rustic chic. The two put together an elite team of wedding specialists who brought their vision to life. Every little detail was executed to a “T”, making for an absolutely unforgettable day. Megan & Stanley’s Calamigos Ranch wedding took place at The Cottage Pavilion. They tied the knot under a large twinkle-lit oak tree, beneath the warm ambiance of the chandelier above. It couldn’t have been any more romantic! And the reception? Whoa, yeah, that pretty! Large dark wood tables were canvased with pretty white hydrangeas along with an eclectic mix of glass and crystal dinnerware, silver candle holders, and baby succulent wedding favors jarred in glass pots.
The wedding day unfolded with ease. Megan was absolutely stunning, calm and collected. And Stanley was as handsome and as excited as ever. The two (without a doubt) are a couple of the most rad people we’ve worked with. They radiate happiness, kindness, and a whole lot of fun. Genuinely happy, the type you can hang out all day with and still want more.
