A Festive Wedding At Saddlerock Ranch

A Festive, Blue Toned, Wedding in Malibu

One of the biggest things Jamie + Jesse wanted for their big day, was for it to feel festive! They wanted guests to be entertained and wowed. We knew Saddlerock Ranch was the perfect place for a jaw-dropping backdrop (check out this wedding + this wedding we have also celebrated there). So, the next step was adding in the entertainment elements. In order to honor Jesse’s Mexican heritage, they hired a Mariachi band to play during the cocktail hour. In addition, they participated in a La Callejoneada, which is a parade and dancing to get the guests in the mood! The final piece to make this wedding feel festive + fun, was to bring in a bounce house! The photos of Jamie + Jesse enjoying the bounce house are priceless.  

Modern Blue Tones 

I’m a big fan of how elegant this wedding design is! We chose to use natural greenery + tones of blue throughout the entire event, including florals. All of the blue tones in this wedding feel reminiscent of the breezy blue wedding styled shoot we did. Lastly, we used clear acrylic signage with white script so nothing in the design distracted from the blue colors. (The crystal blue sky also helped!) 

Huge congrats to Jamie + Jesse! If you’re planning your big day + looking for ways to give your guests a great party, contact me on my homepage here!

Hi, I'm Kari.
Wedding Planner, Podcaster, & Creative Entrepreneur.

The founder and lead planner behind Feathered Arrow Studio. Over the past 11 years, I’ve designed and executed more than 175 weddings throughout Southern California, helping couples create celebrations that feel deeply personal and beautiful.

My approach blends thoughtful design with genuine hospitality. I care deeply about how a wedding feels not just how it looks. I want every detail to be intentional and every guest to feel taken care of. Together we take your inspiration, your story, and your priorities and turn them into a celebration that feels effortless, welcoming, and unmistakably yours.

Not every couple needs full-service planning, which is why I also offer wedding consults and planning guides for those navigating the process on their own. I’m also the co-host of Just Another Biz Podcast, where we have honest conversations about the wedding industry with fellow creatives behind the scenes.
