Why Rancho 4 Milpas Is the Perfect Rustic Wedding Venue

So, why did Cristina and Hunter choose Rancho 4 Milpas for their big day? Well, Cristina has Mexican roots, and Hunter is all-American, so they wanted a place that could symbolize both. The ranch had it all – a charming red barn, a stunning cobblestone house backdrop, and it was tucked away from the hustle of Downtown Rosarito. Plus, the surroundings matched their vision to a T.

Nestled in an inland valley, it offers the feeling of being a world away from the hustle and bustle. However, what makes it even more special is its proximity to downtown Rosarito. This allowed Cristina and Hunter to get ready at a hotel in the heart of the town, making logistics smooth and stress-free. It's the best of both worlds - the tranquility of a hidden gem combined with the convenience of easy access, ensuring that their wedding day was as seamless as it was picturesque.

What made this wedding extra special was how it perfectly mirrored Cristina and Hunter's shared interests. These two are all about the great outdoors, country tunes, and everything cowboy-related. Cristina's dream was to rock a mermaid-style wedding dress, and she absolutely nailed it. Hunter, on the other hand, went all in with a bolo tie, cowboy boots, and a classic cowboy hat. Their outfits weren't just clothes; they were a statement of who they are.
