A VERY happy 1 year wedding anniversary to Namrata

A VERY happy 1 year wedding anniversary to Namrata and Tudor. We had initially postponed their large wedding last year, but after sheltering in place a month or two, I got the call to move forward with the 2020 date. We designed a much smaller gathering in person, while live streaming to 300 guests around the world. And even though there were two large wildfires happening close by in the Russian River and Santa Cruz, the skies magically cleared up, making for one incredible day! These two amazing souls and their families were a complete highlight to my 2020 for sure. Happy Anniversary! #VibrantEvents⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Dear CA Wedding Industry, Hold on tight and keep connected! I'm sending all my vendor friends and colleagues a loving hand and virtual high fives. We got this!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

The events industry in California has gone from zero to one hundred recently, throwing us all into a frenzy. It's more important now than ever to have patience and to stay connected so we can help one another ride the wave of inquiries, price hikes, staffing shortages, and limited availability. I know I'm putting out fires left and right at the moment, while writing proposals, meeting with new clients, and throwing my historical averages out the window! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

I'm so grateful to my network of close planner colleagues and vendors who are offering helping hands, guidance, and a friendly voice at the end of the line. We will get through this together, and all the hard work we've put in over the last year to create a safe reopening was not lost. Though we may feel the chaos all around us now, I know we have each other's backs after this year like non-other, that we've just navigated together.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

For ten years I coveted the stunning 57 acres of organic Tuscan olive orchards at McEvoy Ranch in Petaluma, CA as a possible wedding venue. I called every 3 years, or so, to see if they were allowing weddings yet. The answer for a long time was no. Then one day, it was yes! For a select group of couples each year, McEvoy Ranch opens its spectacular and relaxing estate for private celebrations. Nestled amongst natural ponds, trees, vineyards, wildlife, and coastal fog, the location is simply stunning. Like any farm or ranch, you have a choice of ceremony spots that range from the more manicured to the outright wild. I love this photo and remembering how the bride had found her perfect ceremony location up a long hill and was not put off one bit by the distance-- 11 minutes along a dirt path. Past the olive orchards and ponds she walked, marching to the beat of her own drum, wind in her hair, and elation on her face. This was a wedding where nothing could wipe the smile off the couple's faces that day. No matter how much wind and cold Mother Nature kicked up, they had the time of their lives!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
