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.
