Calamigos Ranch Wedding in Malibu, CA

All the women involved in this Calamigos Ranch wedding were just exquisite. The little flower girls as well. I love when flower girls are enamored by a gorgeous wedding gown.

The Old Hollywood glam that Yvette embraces is just lovely. She chose a dark red matted lip

Badgley Mischka does it again, like always…look at those shoes.

Carlos getting ready with his youngest stepson. So precious how he loved being included with the “men.”

groomsmen always love a good “grown-up” beverage to charge the day with.

Yvette’s oldest son was so sweet and enchanting. He protects his mom and holds himself to a high regard for her. It’s just so refreshing and so precious to see (especially to me, as a mom of boys!)

These draping oak trees, and the ever flowing windows help curate the most gorgeous lighting and backdrops for our brides and grooms at Calamigos Ranch.

Nothing better than a bunch of bridesmaids all with different gowns. Different textures, different sleeves, different colors! It adds such a diverse amount of color and texture. So becoming, so beautiful.

One of my most FAVORITE parts of photographing a wedding is capturing the authenticity, the emotions, and the feelings. Look how lovely Carlos’ reaction is when he first gazes at his beautiful bride, Yvette.

One of the perks of having a wedding ceremony at The Oak Room, at Calamigos Ranch, is this incredible display of water! It’s a ginormous waterfall, adorned with chandeliers and drop lights alike! Its magical.

The light that shines through the fall colored leaves in the garden provides a rainbow of colors.

The Oak Room, in all it’s glory designed and decorated by the lovely team at Petals and Linens.

I have never seen a wedding cake quite like this one! It was cut in half from top to bottom, split open like a V and then FILLED with these gorgeous flowers. And then it’s all placed on top of a clear glass base box which is also filled with flowers. and of course a pin light above to place emphasis on the cake in such a gorgeous setting. So stunning!

Have you ever considered a wedding amidst an Oak Tree? Like, IN an Oak tree? This specific venue at Calamigos Ranch, allows your reception to enfold beneath the blanket of a giant oak tree. The actual venue is built with the Oak Tree in the middle.

Here is a wide shot of the Oak Room where this reception was held. See the draping across the top, and the floor to ceiling windows? Dreamy isn’t it?

The mirror tabletops were such a glamorous and light filling effect to this reception setting. The mirrors were so lovely. Along with the gold beading lining the chargers, everything was so fresh and garden like.

Yvette wanted a black and white style options for her photos, along with the film photos. Here is a sample of her glamorous and vintage appeal for her wedding day.

One of the must-do’s when having your wedding at Calamigos Ranch, is making sure you take a moment at night, when it’s dark, to take some super fun shots lit with all the lights dangling and intertwined all throughout the venue!
