Wedding Receptions San Diego – Fall in Love with Autumn and Ranch Events for your Fall Wedding

Posted on October 24, 2022

If you are trying to choose a month for your wedding, there’s something so warm and cozy about fall and this feeling lends itself to make a perfect time for a wedding. The color palette for this season is everything from orange and brown to deep green and the occasional deep purple. You can mimic the browns and oranges you would see out- side and pair them with gold and olive. This season can place an emphasis on natural elements you find in a rural setting, such as rustic farm tables and twigs to hold signs. Lilies and roses can be intertwined with artichokes and grapes that captured the abundance of the season. read more

A “THAN YOU” From a Satisfied Client for Ranch Events

Posted on October 24, 2022

An email was received from a satisfied Client for an October 15, 2022 Event.  The Client says:

“We just wanted to let you know how much we appreciated everything Ranch Events did for our anniversary celebration.

First of all a big thank you goes to Ramon for coordinating and helping us through out. (We weren’t actually planning on spending so much but all of the additions made our event even more special.) Ramon was right about people saying yes to our invites as our numbers went from 50 to 75 to 90!! He was also right about having a bartender. Much better than us having to shag ice and having a grandson pour wine, beer, and hard cider. The layout in our backyard functioned wonderfully.  Putting the chocolate fountain inside certainly made a great deal of sense. read more

Food Services San Diego – How to Carve a Pumpkin – Simple Instructions

Posted on October 17, 2022

What would Halloween be without a carved pumpkin sitting on your porch or at the window looking out at all the trick or treaters? Make this Halloween special by carving your own pumpkin.

Tools and Materials you will probably use:

  • Pumpkin
  • Keyhole saw
  • Plaster scraper or fleshing tool
  • Sharp awl, needle tool, T pin or thumbtack
  • Miniature saw
  • Linoleum cutter
  • Petroleum jelly

STEP #1: Choose pumpkin. Choose a pumpkin that’s large and smooth with a stem of at least 2”. If you plan to put a candle inside, choose a ground that’s at least 9” tall.

QUICK TIP: Pumpkins with smaller stems rot quickly.

STEP #2: Draw circle or hexagon. Draw a circle or hexagon on the top of the pumpkin an inch or two below the stem. Don’t worry if it’s not perfect, but make sure it’s a little bigger than your fist. read more
