The summer wedding of Angie and Laura was definitely an evening to remember. This lovely couple decided to get married at the beautiful Orcutt Ranch Horticultural Center.
This historical hidden gem is the perfect location for weddings. It is surrounded by gardens, oak trees, and citrus orchards. The brides decided to decorate the adobe ranch with their family photos and fun surprises for the guestsThere were custom signs everywhere to guide family and friends
Wherever the guests went, there was something to do.
A date jar was set in the gazebo to inspire guests to leave an idea for the newlyweds for many years of dating to come
Inside the adobe house was a colorful candy station which had the ladies’ favorite sweet treats
There was a piñata shaped like a case at the toasting treeInspirational notes from their families and friends could be found all over the house
and guests were entertained with fun lawn games
Using their roots as inspiration, the couple decided to have Lawry’s Catering start the fun with a Southern-style cocktail reception. The food hit home with all of the guests as we served some of their favorites:
Basket of spicy cornbread with cinnamon butter & mini biscuits with assorted jams
Sweet Pulled pork on sweet potato coins
Mini chicken n’ waffles & deviled eggs with assorted toppings
The ladies had their own adorable customized cocktail napkins with their personal hashtag
After the cocktail reception,
there were renowned food trucks from Los Angeles
In additional to the candy station more delicious surprises continued to pop throughout the evening. There was a dessert station made of mini puddings and colorful sweet bites
The newlyweds gathered friends and family at the toasting tree to raise a glass to many years of shared happiness
The night ended with Lawry’s Catering passed mini ice cream cones: chocolate with chocolate chip and mint chocolate chip
It was truly a pleasure to help create the perfect wedding celebration for Angie and Laura. May they live a long life of happiness and love!
