Hummingbird Nest Ranch Wedding

Romantic, Vibrant, and Inviting

We’re more behind-the-camera than behind-the-keyboard people, so we let AI help us put some words together for this one.

Tucked into the mountains just outside of Los Angeles, Hummingbird Nest Ranch is one of those venues that instantly takes your breath away. Mediterranean architecture, sprawling gardens, mountain views, and the sound of fountains echoing through the courtyards, it’s a setting that feels both cinematic and deeply peaceful.

For Jess + John, it was the perfect place for their romantic, vibrant, and inviting fall wedding surrounded by 200 of their favorite people.

A Venue That Feels Like a Dream

Hummingbird Nest Ranch has endless corners for photos, each with its own magic:

  • The mountain views glowing at golden hour.

  • Cascading bougainvillea framing the archways.

  • The iron gates and colorful tiled steps where Jess + John took their first portraits together.

  • The villa courtyard fountain, a favorite gathering spot as the evening light faded.

Every moment here feels timeless, from the grand villa steps to the open lawns behind it. It’s a venue that’s built for celebration, connection, and the kind of joy that fills the air long after the music fades.

Jess + John

The day felt warm from the start—friends and family arriving with hugs, laughter, and the buzz of something special in the air. Jess and John shared an emotional first look before their ceremony, a quiet moment of calm in the middle of the excitement.

Their first dance to “Can’t Take My Eyes Off You” by Frankie Valli perfectly summed up their relationship: joyful, classic, and full of love.
