“We had our wedding at Fairview Metropolitan, and it was everything we could have hoped for and more! The real star of the day was our incredible wedding coordinator, Trish. From the moment we started planning to the very last dance, she went above and beyond to make sure every detail was perfect. She kept us calm, handled everything behind the scenes, and made the entire experience so seamless that we were able to simply enjoy our wedding day. Trish is truly the reason we had our dream wedding, and we cannot thank her enough for the care, dedication, and heart she put into making it all happen. Our families and guests were blown away by how beautiful, organized, and smooth the entire celebration was. Everyone was so impressed with the venue, and we received endless compliments throughout the night. On top of that, the food was absolutely delicious — huge shout out to Chef Maria and staff. Fairview Metropolitan gave us the most unforgettable day, with a level of service and quality that far exceeded our expectations. The best part? It was affordable for the value we received. We couldn’t recommend this venue, and especially Trish, more highly for anyone planning their wedding.”

“From the moment we started planning with Amber at Fairview Laguna Seca, we knew we had made the right choice. She listened to our vision and handled all the details so we could actually enjoy the planning process instead of stressing about it. The venue itself is stunning with large windows with views of the hills and bright, modern spaces both indoors and outdoors. It gave us plenty of room for guests to spread out on the patio, golf green, and throughout the clubhouse. The staff, especially Michael, were attentive and professional all evening, and the food was delicious. We threw a lot of ideas at them—live music, passed appetizers, party package modifications, display tables for photos, and a photo video showing—and they made it all happen without hesitation. Two months later, our guests are still talking about how magical the day was, and we couldn't have asked for a better team to bring our wedding reception to life.”

“The Century is an extremely beautiful venue that even pictures can't do justice! Erica Ford at The Century made everything SO easy!! Her organization and attention to detail on top of anticipating my needs because she's just THAT good, was beyond expectations! She kept me sane, helped me make my menu a complete dream (I am the only vegan amongst meat eaters), and accommodated every one of my (last minute) changes! She genuinely cared about us and our dream wedding and did everything she could to make our dreams come true! The chef, the banquet staff, the bar staff, security, everyone was so professional, on top of EVERYTHING, and made it so we had zero worries on our day. Our wedding day was a complete dream, and that's because of The Century and their amazing team of dedicated, professional, caring employees! Speaking of which, Leticia from Hand Creations Floral, their in house florist, brought my visions to life and moved me to tears with her execution! She was so easy to work with, understood our needs and vision with very minimal direction (I knew what I wanted but didn't always know how to vocalize it), and executed beyond my wildest dreams! My bouquet, which were the only flowers I had other than boutonnieres and corsages, exceeded my wildest dreams! The attention to detail, her ability to capture everything I wanted represented, and the sheer beauty could not have been accomplished with anyone else. I will sing the praises of The Century and their team from the rooftops! One of the best decisions we made for our wedding!”

“We toured several venues, but Guglielmo’s permanent tent and rustic Italian storybook village surrounding is what sold it for us. Also, they had a package deal full of excellent local vendors! We went without a planner, which is risky, of course- but we did it and it wasn’t that hard- simply because with the all-inclusive package, the vendor vetting and research were very easy. Our initial point of contact left the company about a month after we signed, but the woman training under her, Brianna, did a great job assuming the role and owning the position. The wedding was even more beautiful than I could have imagined. The space is so naturally beautiful that when the decorations and settings are placed- it’s just next level simple, rustic luxury. This place is ultimate romance.”

We were looking for a winery wedding venue that could host up to 200 guests and where you could see vineyards from the ceremony and/or reception site; Clos has exactly that plus a golf course view! Our tour with Kristin Murphy ended with some wine tasting, both red and white. * Pre-Wedding * Kristin was incredible to work with! We had a lot of questions during the wedding planning process and she always had answers! Kristin was quick to respond via email and very accommodating when it came to special requests. Something that can’t go unnoticed was her expertise in the wedding industry and how knowledgeable she is to the property. * Wedding Day * The Clos LaChance event staff took care of everything day of wedding. They set up all of our signage in the exact location we asked for it to be placed. They placed our appetizers at our sweetheart table since we weren’t able to join Cocktail Hour. Not only did they take good care of us and our guests, the food that Chef Lu cooked was delicious (although we knew this coming out of the food tasting). * Overall * We would highly recommend Clos LaChance to anyone looking to host an elegant wedding. * Clos LaChance will always have a special place in our hearts. We look forward to our future visits reminiscing the best day of our lives along with a glass of 22 Pirates Red Blend and Reserve Chardonnay. Forever grateful, Iannick and Kelby”

“We chose Swank Farms for our wedding and couldn't have been happier with our decision. From the first conversation, the team was upfront about everything—pricing, timelines, and what to expect on the day itself. Their elegant approach to every detail showed in how the venue looked and felt, and they even extended their hours to make sure our celebration could go as long as we wanted. The picturesque setting was the perfect backdrop for our photos, and being so close to the SF Bay Area made it convenient for our guests traveling from all over. Their communication before the wedding was thorough and reassuring, which helped us feel calm leading up to the big day. We'd absolutely recommend Swank Farms to any couple looking for a beautiful venue with a team that truly cares about making your wedding special.”

“Nearly two years later and we still get compliments on our venue! We had our reception at Sierra Cider and couldn’t be happier we did. Seriously- we wouldn’t change a thing. Dana and David were so accommodating and really worked with us to achieve our vision. Nick was our bartender during the event and was so kind and personable with all the guests. He went above and beyond to ensure everyone had an incredible experience. The venue itself is beautiful. Our guests raved about our table setting in the orchard rows. The tasting room is charming with plenty of seating, bistro lights, and even misters for hot summer days. I’d be remiss not to mention how yummy the ciders are! Many guests visited Sierra Cider days following the wedding because they loved it so much. Overall, I couldn’t recommend Sierra Cider more.”

Deloro Valley is a historic Sierra Nevada property with the space and infrastructure to support a wedding that actually unfolds; not just a ceremony and a reception, but a full experience spread across multiple days and acres. The property includes ceremony and gathering spaces, two potential dining halls, two amphitheaters, a pool, sweeping valley views, and the kind of natural setting that does a lot of the decorating for you. Our on-site culinary team handles everything from welcome dinners and morning spreads to late-night bites, all prepared in our commercial kitchen and tailored to your group. Most couples choose to buy out part or all of the property, giving their guests room to move, settle in, eat well, and really be present for the weekend. It's less like hosting a wedding and more like hosting an entire space; one that belongs entirely to you and the people you love for a few days.

“Deloro Valley is one of the most naturally beautiful wedding venues I have ever been to, without the stuffy and stiff vibes of other venues. It feels like a very liberating sanctuary with a sort of 'adult summer camp' vibe. The team is incredibly friendly and the communication is excellent, responsive and diligent. As a wedding planner, it was rare to have every guest mention the space was hard to leave. They went above and beyond to accommodate requests and make the experience truly unique and special. It's clear how important the happiness of the client is to the Deloro Valley team. Most of my wedding guests said it was the best wedding they'd ever been to. If you are considering this venue for a large event of any kind, know that the experience will hold a place in your guests' hearts forever.”
