June 7, 2008The Meeting
Luciana and Kevin truly are an amazing couple. They met about 7 years ago working at River City Brewing Company in Sacramento and have been inseparable ever since.
The Proposal
Kevin proposed to Luciana in Europe when visiting her family. He bought her ring from a street vendor and was so nervous about doing it, he kept putting it off. Finally he got up the nerve to propose and as he leaned over to kiss her he bumped into her head and chipped his tooth! Needless to say, they spent the rest of the afternoon looking for a dentist to fix it!
The Big Day
Kevin & Luciana love the outdoors, which is why they chose Rancho Cicada Retreat as their venue. The Consumnes River flows directly along the reception site/camp ground (yes, the guests camped!) and the peaceful sound of the flowing water enhances the ambience and sounds of the surrounding nature. Everything about their wedding was a true reflection of both Luciana and Kevin, from the natural surroundings to the potted plant favors (that also served as the escort cards), to the live band for the reception, to the Italian inspired menu, it was all absolutely perfect!
