We did not use The Knott to find this venue but we had such an amazing experience we had to share. The venue itself, the first thing you see is a modern foodhall / full bar with a large variety of restaurants. If youre staying at the hotel connected, it was such a great place to hangout with your bridal parties before everything starts. Moving along to the even areas, the ceremony room gives off a modern barn yard style venue and it's such a pleasant contrast from what you initially see when first walking in which really adds to the "wow" factor when entering the room. The cocktail hour area is amazing as well and after we gifted some of our items, they will now have Cornhole and a beer cart available! The area itself is wide open with great seating areas as well. The reception is another instance where the contrast is such a difference from the food hall downstairs, it once again adds so much to that jsw drop reaction. We were approached multiple times complementing how "cool" this venue was and it was definitely a true compliment. Now the venue wouldn't be anywhere with out the staff and I can not say enough great things about them. The entire time was courteous, professional and really give they sense that they want to make sure you have your special day as one to remember. Specifically wanted to shout out our amazing coordinator - Brianna, banquet captain - Lee j and Dj - Rhy's. These three went above and beyond for us and it seemed like that was just their normal demeanor. Brianna made sure we had nothing to worry about and made every part of the planning process a breeze. Lee J was also always checking in appropriately often to ensure we were never left wanting, thirsty or hungry. Rhy's was also great to work with, we had a very specific request with music which ended up having my wife and I take part in a lightsaber fight to two different versions of starwars music - Duel of the Fates, and he handled it masterfully. All in all, 10/10 can not recommend enough.

Galway Downs by Wedgewood Weddings was an absolute dream venue for our wedding. From the very first planning meeting, the team was incredibly responsive, attentive, and friendly in helping us bring our vision to life. The value they provided was unmatched - the naturally beautiful space required minimal additional decor, and the add-ons like the photo both and cold touch sparklers were very memorable. We felt like no small detail was missed thanks to Ashley, Austin, Aubree, Devin, Ireland, Kylie, Makenna, Mikayla, Austin (our DJ&MC), and DJ (our banquet coordinator).

Despite a myriad of potential issues due to acts of God, the team at The Outpost made everyone on their property, from guests, and vendors to the bridal party, feel comfortable and at ease. The Outpost's natural aesthetic is perfect for any combination of modern and rustic events, and I highly recommend them to any couple, family retreat, or business team looking for a stunning venue for their special events.

Our wedding at the Dream House was absolutely perfect and so unique! Our guests still can’t stop talking about it! The venue is set right in the middle of the beautiful Palm Desert Mountains, blending seamlessly into the breathtaking landscape. We couldn't have dreamed of a better spot to get married. The staff went above and beyond, making us feel so special. They were not only super professional but always there when we needed them. Quick to respond to texts, they helped with everything along the way. We had our ceremony on one side of the house with a beautiful mountain backdrop and a violinist playing. For the cocktail hour, we moved to the pool area, which offered the best view anyone has ever seen. Our guests kept saying the same thing – they were blown away. The main party was held inside the house in a room nicknamed the game room, which has sliding doors all across that open up to the outside. The decor our planner designed gave the room a unique, modern desert disco feel. The night flowed very smoothly from one space to another, giving our guests freedom to explore all the house had to offer. What you can do with the house in terms of layout and decor is nicer than any wedding venue I’ve ever been to. The decor and flowers were stunning. Even now, our guests keep telling us it was the nicest wedding they've ever been to. The Dream House made our big day so special and unique, we couldn't recommend it more.

We just had our wedding at the end of June and DPV was absolutely incredible!! Our wedding party stayed with us the whole weekend leading up to our Saturday wedding, and it was so amazing being able to be together during that whole time, rather than just on the wedding day. DPV was more than accommodating and the communication throughout our planning process was quick and helpful. DPV had staff available to help our wedding vendors with set-up and clean-up, which made everything so seamless. We would highly recommend DPV for any one wanting a bit of a non-traditional wedding experience!!

With a maximum capacity of 180 people, Hakone Estate and Gardens offers both indoor and uncovered outdoor settings. The overall feel of the 18 acres private venue is classy and outdoorsy. Wheelchair accessible venue offers nearby parking for its guests. Event planning services are also available by Hakone Estate and Gardens to help couples plan a day that they can remember for the rest of their lives. Although the venue does not provide catering or event rentals, We do have a list of trusted preferred vendors who have years of professional experience. The long list of preferred vendors & caterers that Hakone Estate and Gardens provides range from caterers and florists to entertainment and officiants. Each of our preferred vendors have worked with Hakone Estate and Gardens before and is familiar with the venue’s policies and regulations.

We had our wedding at Hakone in June 2023. We booked the venue early out (Sep 2021) and have had an extremely positive experience from planning up to our wedding day. The site: Beautiful space for what we needed (120 guests). Guests, including kids, loved experiencing the garden before and after the ceremony. There is a variety of areas/backdrops for photographer to take portraits. Amenities: Their "base" rental includes most essentials - tables, chairs, dance floor, and basic sound system. It is one of the few places we could find in the bay area that allows BYO alcohol which is typically more cost-efficient than an alcohol package from caterer. The only "con" is due to being in a residential area, dancing/loud music has to be wrapped up fairly early. Service: Although the venue does not technically come with a formal planner/coordinator, we felt taken care of by Tony and Melia every step of the way. After booking, they willingly allowed us to come back for 2-3 additional tours and answered our emails promptly. They even coordinated rehearsal and allowed us to drop off decor items/alcohol on the rehearsal day. We did not hire a planner/day-of coordinator (just had family friends help out) and yet we felt completely taken care of. On our wedding day, Melia ensured our ceremony started on time and directing the procession. She even stayed until the end of reception. Most of our vendors had worked at Hakone before which made the day even more seamless. After the wedding, we promptly received our deposit.

This is a working ranch with cattle, donkeys, peacocks, and chickens. We do have an occasional deer wandering through, as well as foxes, raccoons and many birds and butterflies. We do not offer catering but have a long list of local vendors we’d be happy to provide you with - you are welcome to select all your own vendors.

Awarded Best of Zola
We are not ballroom wedding people, so we were looking into National Park weddings and found some information on Redwood Ranch. It was much easier then going through the permit process for NPS and finding a separate reception site. It is also close enough to visit Sequoia and Kings Canyon while you are there. 2023 was especially rainy, which meant the river was really flowing and the lupins were absolutely gorgeous. This venue does not include any vendors such as catering, but that worked well for us as we could customize things exactly what we wanted. It is a bit of a narrow access road, so I recommend hiring shuttles for you guests especially if you plan to serve alcohol.

Nestled in Glen Cove among rolling hills and a majestic waterfront—this historic building, originally built in 1910 and moved from another location, is rich in local history and has been renovated to include a combination of modern-day conveniences and historic charm. Your Celebration Awaits at The Lighthouse at Glen Cove Marina. A one-of-a-kind destination for once-in-a-lifetime affairs. Please note: The Lighthouse is not an all-inclusive venue. As such, clients must hire licensed and insured vendors, including food and beverage, for their Lighthouse event. Please refer to the Preferred Partners page on our website for a list of pre-approved vendors to choose from. The Lighthouse proudly serves and celebrates all races, ethnicities, orientations, identities, and religions.

Both my wife and I are from bay areas so it was important to get married by the water. I can’t stress enough how beautiful this venue is. It’s pretty much all inclusive, you can bring your own booze, vendors and decorations. It includes a stay in their fabulous inn which is 4 bedrooms. Our whole bridal party stayed and it was the best experience. We decided to book the night before too. You can even take pictures on the Marina docks right next to the property (for a small fee). The place itself is so dreamy, we used one lawn for our ceremony and one for lawn games and our cocktail tables. Watching the sunset from the reception space and the sparkly lights on both lawns was just sooo gorgeous. Now for the team, they went ABOVE and BEYOND to accommodate our requests and answer all my hundred questions and they were so flexible with us when we had to postpone for Covid twice. We are incredibly grateful for the team. They shared all their tips and tricks and made our wedding perfect. The coordination between the wedding venue and our planner was flawless. And best part was the seamless delivery of our late night snack, hot pretzels! And the space perfect accommodated a photo booth which everyone loved. We finally got married in September 2023! I highly recommend as a wedding venue 10/10.

Within the Fort Scott campus along the Presidio's western shore, not far from the Golden Gate Bridge, this rustic cabin is ideal for wedding celebrations. Feel cozy indoors or step out to the generous lawn with panoramic views of the San Francisco skyline. Dating back to 1937, step into history and enjoy the rustic grandeur of this Army Clubhouse or enjoy the patio and lawn with views of the world-famous Golden Gate Bridge and San Francisco city skyline. By choosing this unique, rustic wedding venue, couples can relax with a stress-free planning experience while also hosting a grand event that impresses their guests! As with all Wedgewood Weddings venues, our dedicated event planning team makes everything about the wedding planning experience a breeze.

We are so, so happy with our decision to hold our wedding reception at the Log Cabin at the Presidio. I would recommend the Log Cabin and Wedgewood Weddings to anyone looking for an all-in-one package, easy breezy planning, awesome event planners/coordinators, and a flawlessly executed day. The Log Cabin itself is beautiful, the food was amazing, the drinks were flowing, the flowers were beautiful, and the location in the Presidio is perfect. They have a fabulous team to help you plan and execute the wedding of your dreams! The team (Duckie, Jimmy, and Libby - huge shoutout!) all were awesome to work with through the planning process. Super communicative, responsive, professional, knowledgeable, and supportive through the whole thing. They helped us plan the most perfect day and made it so easy on us. Jimmy was our day-of coordinator and deserves extra praise for pivoting gracefully and adjusting the evening’s timeline flawlessly when our shuttles unfortunately were super late to arrive with our guests. The rest of the day-of team were all amazing, too. DJ Abel blew our socks off - we didn’t want typical wedding music, and he totally nailed the playlist and the vibe we were hoping for. I even had a touching moment with the security guard who pulled me aside and said he got emotional during the father/daughter dance, which was such a lovely thing for him to share. Wedgewood as an organization seems to have a very organized, structured approach to wedding planning, which I so appreciated. They were great partners and helped us have the most perfect day on one of the biggest days of our lives!

At Whispertree you can celebrate without the pressure of fitting into the conventional wedding box. We invite couples with a love of nature (including LGBTQ couples) to craft a unique wedding experience to honor their union and enjoy intimate and nourishing connection with family and friends.

The choice of WhisperTree as our wedding venue was the absolute best decision we made in planning our sacred ceremony. We could not have asked for a more ineffably perfect setting—the gorgeous land, the incredible staff, and the rustic chic decor created the perfect atmosphere for the conscious California retreat wedding of our dreams. The land and property is absolutely gorgeous. You have access to a beautiful historic mansion with a beautiful backyard and hot tub, a rustic-yet-upscale barn with glimmering string lights, a charming riverside cottage, a gorgeous yurt where we hosted a soundbath and yoga, absolutely stunning glamping tents, and breathtaking trails. The entire weekend, all our guests kept noting how beautiful the property is, and how carefully and thoughtfully maintained. You can tell love and intention was put into every single piece of furniture, and there are incredible amenities, including rain boots, umbrellas, blankets for chilly nights, and so much more. We felt help, taken care of, and very grateful for the opportunity to host our unforgettable event here. The staff is top notch, and always available to assist you with any needs you may have. Everything is perfectly organized, so it made wedding planning as breezy as possible. We also worked with local farmers to source our food, wine, and flowers, and we could not have asked for better options. Many of our friends expressed that they hoped to get married at WhisperTree too, or to host a retreat, because it truly is the most unforgettable property in Northern California.

The host also let us know that it can be a steep slope coming up so we too were prepared here with any cars or vendors. We had an onsite caterer who set up with a grill top outside on the backyard and licensed bartender on site. I truly look forward to recommending more clients and friends to this beautiful estate and encourage anyone to consider it for their next weekend getaway, shoot, or event. The hosts are so kind so don’t hesitate to communicate your plans with them and they’ll assist you along the way! Can’t wait to be back here again real soon!

Tess and the rest of the China Peak crew did an exceptional job at our wedding. On the day of my wedding, we realized the rental company forgot to deliver the chargers for the table settings. Tess sent one of her employees all the way to Fresno and back to get them and made it all seem like it was no big deal. Also, I tend to be a little camera shy and Tess did a great job of making me feel comfortable and directing us in a way to get great photos!

Victoria Ranch is the perfect place for a local destination wedding. From the breathtaking views overlooking the rolling hills of San Diego to the intimate and nostalgic setting of a vintage property, this is a hidden gem. We offer a completely full-service experience that includes but is not limited to event rentals, catering, florals, and entertainment. Let us turn your vision into a reality. Victoria Ranch embodies the spirit of the coastal mountains it was built upon. On a clear day, stunning views of rolling chaparral give way to the sparkling crystal blues of the Pacific Ocean. The gentle and magnificent presence of Mother Nature surrounds this home that love built.

I had my wedding at Victoria Ranch in February. It was perfect! The location is stunning with beautiful views and a gorgeous sunset – plenty of spots for incredible photos. Our wedding was 80 people and there were tons of spots throughout the property for people to wander, explore, and take photos, while still feeling intimate. We had a happy hour event the night before our ceremony and reception, all of which were catered by the preferred vendor, Chef Joann. The food was incredible. Hands down the best wedding food ever. We ended up staying at the property for two nights with our families and when the weather got chilly at night we ended up moving the party into the ranch itself. The ranch is charming and cozy, full of vintage tchotchkes that made this antique lover's heart melt. Perhaps most importantly, the team was easy to work with in the months leading up to the wedding. They were responsive and knowledgeable. I put a lot of trust in their vision and input. It was the best decision because it took a lot of the stress off of planning a wedding, knowing that the catering and venue was in good, capable hands.

The octagon gazebo bar with the thatched roof gives the feel of being in a tropical paradise. There is also a fire pit which adds to the ambience as well as keeping people warm on cooler nights. The lighting is magical at night with the grotto pool changing colors and the twinkle lights in the trees. Feels like you're in a fairytale. Because of the special ambiance, The Enchanted Manor is chosen for many kinds of themed events.

I have worked with Georgia Durante at her fabulous Enchanted Manor a few times and have had great experiences! She and her other vendors are a joy to work with and really go 'the extra mile' to make sure you feel extremely special and very welcome. I would recommend this lovely venue for a variety of reasons...but, if you're looking for that different and intimate setting for your special event, visit The Enchanted Manor in person or online...you won't be disappointed at all!

With its panoramic views, sweeping lawns, and historic buildings, the Paicines Ranch is the perfect location to begin your happily ever after! The ranch has a peaceful and magical feel that helps our couples feel relaxed and really take in the moments of their special day! With our 27 rooms in the event center, you can spend the whole weekend with family and friends and truly make your wedding a weekend to remember!

I got married here recently and it was beautiful! It is very convenient having rooms on site to accomodate so many guests. You have to cater through the venue but their food is amazing. They use their own grass fed meats and were great about what food and drinks we wanted. While the venue does come with a few things like tables and chairs, you do have to pay to rent other items from them and a lot of the decoration will be DIY, but this can be a good thing if you want to personalize a lot of things! Owners are not too strict about things and are flexible. This can go both ways though - sometimes the planning was a bit difficult due to lack of communication with the venue. It would take a while to get answers, or they would forget some things I told them. Definitely recommend getting a day of planner to help since this is a large venue with lots of DIY and family around usually. Other than that though, everything turned out beautiful and guests were very happy with the views and rooms. They are reasonably priced and we were able to stay up late too! Perfect day :)

Meghan was awesome! The whole team at Convict Lake was honestly super awesome… I don’t even know where to begin. Everyone working the wedding was super nice and helpful- if you asked for anything they were on it. Meghan was great for helping me to get the schedule made and then coordinate it before and during with the other vendors. And the food! We had so many guests come and tell us how good food is. And the location is just totally awesome too. Our friends and family loved being able to stay in the cabins near each other. I honestly can’t recommend this venue enough.

Owned by a famous host and designer, Casa Tierra is an exceptional wedding venue for many reasons. Its unique Spanish-style architecture, paired with modern, cozy touches, provides a beautiful and distinctive backdrop that adds natural elegance and romance to any celebration. You can dress it up as much, or as little, as you like. The spacious layout, spanning over 5,000 square feet with 7 bedrooms and 6.5 baths, allows for both intimate gatherings, and larger dinner parties under the golden desert light. The property’s seamless indoor-outdoor flow is ideal for a wedding; allowing ceremonies, cocktail hours, & dinners to take place outdoors against the desert landscape, while also offering perfectly curated indoor options for stunning photos. This flexibility enhances the experience, giving couples and their guests a variety of beautiful spaces to enjoy throughout the day. The mountainside location provides a sense of privacy and intimacy, creating an exclusive atmosphere.

Rented this house for our daughter’s 15-person micro-wedding in May. It was the perfect venue with endless picture-perfect options for photos, meals, and activities. It’s like having your own private resort. The pool area is amazing. In addition, the house was clean, well appointed, and rooms are well laid-out for everyone to not feel like they were on top of each other. There are quite a few steps both inside and out so if you have anyone with mobility issues it could be challenging. The TRAVLR staff was very responsive and helpful with all of our questions. We had a number of pretty specific inquiries about types of dishes and glasses, etc. (for the wedding dinner) and they were always prompt and thorough in their replies. They even tracked down and shipped some bathing suits that were left behind. We appreciated their attention to detail. Casa Tierra exceeded all expectations - I just wish we had stayed longer!

This is a special place. The moment you walk through the welcoming rustic gate and past a quintessential redwood barn, you enter a quiet, peaceful world of bird-song, the splash of water falling, tropical plantings of every conceivable varietal, winding paths, and cottages tucked away among exotic palms, banana, and ancient cypress trees. Abundant oak trees and giant prickly-pear cacti stand sentinel. Wooden benches and comfortably-cushioned, bent willow chairs in secluded, shady oases offer places to sit, to rest and to absorb the quiet. This spectacular private estate is a sanctuary, nestled along the Santa Lucia Mountain Range. Family-owned and operated, this expansive Carmel jungle hideaway was created exclusively for destination weddings or for those looking for a relaxing, retreat-style experience. Your closest family and friends gather to spend 2-5 nights together at your own private oasis, a hidden Shangri-la- your home base for days of celebration of love. All are welcome.

I always highly recommend Holly Farm for so many reasons. In additional to feeling intimately in the tropical forest, you will be surrounded by love. Erin and Ryan reflect their hearts in everything they do. When you’re here, you’re family. Accepted, loved and supported which is exactly what matters when choosing where to hold your special weekend.
