Straus Home Ranch is breathtaking in all seasons, but late winter has an energy of its own. The rain dramatically transforms the hills from golden and sun-bleached to the most lush, vibrant green. Everything is ultra alive and crisp, and smells like damp earth mixed with coastal saltiness. It feels secluded and cozy, and you can request a bonfire at night to stay warm.
This sweet, quirky, wedding day was family oriented, intimate (~45 of their dearest) and infused with the couple's playful personalities.
