"It’s a dream location for any couple looking for a timeless and picturesque setting"
"Holman Ranch is truly one of the most breathtaking wedding venues in Carmel, and it’s always a joy to photograph weddings there. With sweeping views of the Carmel Valley, a stunning ceremony space, and endless backdrops for portraits, it’s a dream location for any couple looking for a timeless and picturesque setting. Every time I work at Holman Ranch, I’m reminded why it’s one of my absolute favorite venues—the golden hills, the vineyards, and that iconic tree at the entrance make for the most incredible sunset portraits. Whether capturing intimate moments under the oak trees or heading up the hill for panoramic views, every wedding here feels like pure magic. I can’t recommend Holman Ranch enough for couples who want a venue that is as breathtaking as their love story."
