A Coastal Wedding at Slide Ranch: Grace + George

Written By Slide Ranch

Grace and George were married at Slide Ranch surrounded by their loved ones, ocean views, wildflowers, and the quiet magic of the Northern California coast. Their wedding was a beautiful example of how the Ranch’s natural landscape creates an unforgettable setting for a deeply personal celebration.

"We would choose Slide Ranch a million times over again! It was the most beautiful place to gather our loved ones, overlooking the Pacific Ocean, yet less than an hour from our home in San Francisco."

A Ceremony on the Bluffs The ceremony took place on the bluffs overlooking the Pacific Ocean, where the sound of waves and open sky set the tone. Guests gathered on the terrace, some seated on quilts laid out across the grass—a down-to-earth touch that felt perfectly at home at the Ranch. A hand-drawn program included agenda item 11,"They’re married! Kiss!”, that drew smiles before cheers for the actual event.

Dinner in the Garden Following the ceremony, guests made their way to dinner on the deck of the Farm-to-Table Center and among the organic garden beds. Each place setting included a handwritten letter from Grace and George, a personal gesture that reflects the thoughtfulness of the couple.

Dancing in the Yurt As the sun set, the celebration moved to the Yurt, where the dance floor came alive. “The yurt will always be a special place for us. Right after the ceremony, we spent our first quiet moments there as newlyweds, and by the end of the night, it became the dance floor where we celebrated with everyone we love.” Polaroid cameras invited guests to capture candid moments throughout the night, a bit of spontaneity and charm, fitting with the Ranch’s hand-crafted ethos.

A Place to Return At Slide Ranch, the story doesn’t end with the wedding. “One of the unexpected benefits of getting married at Slide Ranch is being able to come back. We camped in the meadow on our first anniversary. We love knowing this place will always be part of our story.”
