Effortlessly Romantic Bridal Beauty at Hummingbird Nest Ranch

May 6

natural and effortless hair and makeup look for los angeles bride's ranch wedding

Our bride Jordan wanted to feel like herself on her wedding day, and that is exactly what our team brought to life.

Her vision was effortlessly romantic, and we executed it with cascading waves that flowed down her shoulders and the most gorgeous bronzey, natural makeup that gave her that radiant, sun-kissed glow. Think dewy, glowing skin with minimal eye makeup that let her natural beauty do all the talking. Less is more at its finest, and she looked absolutely stunning on camera.

Hummingbird Nest Ranch is one of those venues that just takes your breath away the moment you pull up.

Nestled in the Santa Susana Mountains just north of LA, this private estate feels like you've been transported to a European countryside while still being so close to the city. The property features a gorgeous Spanish Villa, shaded olive groves, sparkling fountains, sprawling lawns, and private vineyards, and there are so many stunning ceremony and reception spaces to choose from, including the Q Vineyard with its incredible mountain backdrop. It's an award-winning venue for good reason, and getting the bridal party ready on a property this beautiful honestly makes our job even more fun. The natural light, the romantic architecture, the sweeping mountain views... it all creates the most dreamy backdrop for getting ready photos and we loved every second of being there with Jordan and her crew!

We had the best time getting the entire bridal party ready the morning of! We provided hair services for four lovely ladies and makeup for eight, and the goal was a cohesive look that felt polished but still natural and authentically beautiful. Every single person in that getting ready suite was glowing.

The details at this wedding were a complete dream. Jordan wore the most incredible Vivienne Westwood gown that paired perfectly with the romantic ranch setting at Hummingbird Nest. The Alison Rose Events team did an unbelievable job with the planning and design, and the florals by Creative Light Design were breathtaking. Sophie Savage Photo captured every precious moment beautifully.
