We visited the Hakone Gardens at the perfect time to see the cherry blossoms. A beautiful example of a Japanese garden.

Everett Family Farm – Farmstand and Event Venue
Photos we took at Everett Family Farm – a little known event venue near Santa Cruz. The farm is so beautiful in when the persimmon trees have turned orange – a small family wedding would be incredible here in the fall. They even do flower arrangements for weddings.

Rooster Ridge Organic Farm
If you are planning a wedding in the Santa Cruz area and want to buy flowers directly from a local grower, consider Rooster Ridge Organic Farm. They can provide the olive branches and lemons for a vineyard wedding, or sunflowers and bells of Ireland for a more country style.
Roses of Yesterday and Today | Santa Cruz
We photographed some of the unusual roses at Roses of Yesterday & Today. These are the roses your grandmother would recognize, but are not as common today. We are fortunate to have this local grower who is preserving the heritage. It is a really lovely location and does allow an occasional wedding to take place there. They just need lots of advanced notice in order to make as many roses as possible bloom all at once – but wouldn’t that be a special occasion!
