Ranch Events says Thank You to All Our Veterans

Image
  Posted on November 11, 2021 Ranch Events wants to say THANK YOU to all of our military service men and women who served or are now serving in one of our military branches.  Without your service and dedication our Nation would not enjoy the liberties and freedom we have today. Veterans Day originated as “Armistice Day” on Nov. 11, 1919 to commemorate the end of World War I. The day became an annual observance in 1926 and Nov. 11 became a national holiday in 1938. Armistice Day was changed to Veterans Day on June 1, 1954 to recognize all veterans and not just those who served in World War I. Veterans Day (Nov. 11) is now intended to thank living veterans for their service,   whether they served during wartime or not. THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE

San Diego Weddings - It's Not All About Pumpkins For Your Autumn Wedding!! Some Fall Wedding Traps To Avoid

Image
  If you think your autumn wedding has to be all about pumpkin centerpieces and foliage hues? Not to worry — fall weddings have tons of  wedding  style options. It’s easy to feel trapped in a certain kind of wedding style when you’re planning a fall wedding — you might feel bound to a wedding color palette of brick to russet to terra cotta, and that autumn leaves are a decor necessity. But it’s not so – Here are some fall wedding traps that you don’t have to fall into and so your style possibilities will be as excellent as the weather forecast. TRAP #1: You Must Stick To a “Fall Foliage” Wedding Color Scheme Experts agree that you do  not  have to use leaf-hues for a fall wedding, and that some couples tend to rely too heavily on these and other earth tones (like chocolate brown) in autumn. We’re not suggesting that you ignore the season entirely and use bright, summery colors or spring pastels; simply consider other rich and glamorous hues that fit this time of...
