Question
Why are you getting married in Silverado? What even is Silverado?
Answer
Orange County is a special place for Brooke and her family: she grew up spending time at her grandparents house in Newport Beach and her Father lived in Laguna Beach in his youth (Go Anteaters!). As Brooke and James have moved to Southern California, they are excited to host you at what they think is the most beautiful part of the state. Silverado is nestled in the hills of Orange County. Rancho Las Lomas is a private estate that used to be an old Spanish Hacienda. We're excited to show you the best of Orange County between the wedding on Friday, the lunch on Saturday, and recommend other activities in the area.
