When local nurse Erin told her fiancé, local fireman JP, that she wanted to get married at her family’s avocado orchard, he didn’t even blink. He immediately got to work clearing the area—and even built an arch from the very tree Erin had played in as a child, a tree that was no longer standing. With the help of Ventura Rentals and Erin’s impeccable sense of style, we transformed the orchard into a rustic, spooky, and fall-dreamy wedding, complete with a tent and all the details, and welcomed guests for an unforgettable celebration right in the heart of the orchard.
Moments We’ll Treasure from this Camarillo Orchard Wedding
✨ Favorite Moments from the Lucky Penny Team “What we loved most was how personal the entire celebration felt—longtime family who had gathered at the space for BBQs over the years were joined by new family, welcomed with open arms.”
💍 A Couple’s Touch Erin & JP envisioned a day that felt cool and casual—allowing moments to unfold naturally while still keeping to a thoughtful timeline. The balance worked beautifully, creating a celebration that felt effortless and familiar.
🎉 A Lucky Penny Moment
Since Erin & JP already had a toddler in tow, we came prepared with a few toy trucks from the local toy store. Sure enough, when a little pre-ceremony meltdown hit, those trucks turned out to be the perfect distraction—keeping him happy, occupied, and ready for the big moment.

🌿 Pro Tip for Future Couples If you plan to have little ones at your wedding, consider bringing a few activities to help pass the time—things like toy trucks, coloring books, or playdough are always a hit.!
✨ Whether you dream of an orchard wedding in Camarillo or simply want to infuse your celebration with heart, Erin & JP’s day proves that with the right touches, your setting can feel like the ultimate destination.
