Real Wedding Shenanigans: Sara & Benjamin

Sara and Ben chose to celebrate their love for one another in a beautiful outdoor ceremony and reception at Highlands Spring Ranch and Inn. Tucked away in Cherry Valley, the property sat on hundreds of acres, full of natural beauty. Known for its olive trees and lavender fields, it was no surprise that Sara and Ben wanted to incorporate these aspects into their wedding decor. For Sara and Ben, this rustic-themed wedding was magical, and we loved every part of it! So Smitten provided full service planning, design and day-of coordination.
