“My husband and I could not have imagined a better wedding experience and we are so grateful we chose to have our special day at the beautiful Secret Garden! We got married on December 14, 2024 and it was the most beautiful day we could have imagined! We booked the venue over a year in advance and throughout the entire planning process, the entire team was so available and responsive. As the day approached, we met with our day-of coordination Laura and she was truly amazing!! She helped me create the day of my dreams and was very prompt in responding to any of our concerns. She helped bring our vision to life and I am so grateful!! The very inclusive experience at The Secret Garden was also so helpful. We ended up going through our own food vendor for BBQ for dinner, but everything else was seamless and really helped ease the wedding planning stress. The photography and videography team was so amazing and captured our day so beautifully. I still cry tears of joy looking at our pictures and videos from the special day! :') The DJ services provided were also amazing and we couldn't have been happier with DJ Jason Lyons! Overall, we could not be happier with our experience at The Secret Garden. It was worth every penny to marry my best friend at such a beautiful place surrounded by everyone we love!! :)”

“We hosted our wedding weekend at Sacred Mountain Ranch, Thursday through Sunday over the 4th of July, and it was truly above and beyond anything we could have imagined!! Throughout the planning process, Shannon was incredibly helpful. She was always willing to answer any question and work us through any problems that came up. We had a last-minute cancellation with our wedding coordinator, and Shannon and the Sacred Mountain team stepped in without missing a beat. They kept things running smoothly all weekend, especially on the wedding day itself. The property is stunning, and everyone there was kind and accommodating. They made sure we had what we needed while still letting us use the space in a way that felt personal and comfortable, like it was truly our own. It's a dream venue! Every housing option on property is beautiful and homey, and the wedding venue setup flows so well, with every detail clearly well thought out. I can't recommend Sacred Mountain Ranch enough.

Oakwood Creek was built in the 1930s by WW Wood and his wife Leanora. Wood drove a truck that hauled dairy milk from the outlying ranches into the town of Julian. Later on, Wood would operate B&L Liquor on the main street. The remains of W's garage are still very apparent on the property today, along with his goat shed & stables. We have one of the last intact water towers in the historic district. The property has been preserved to reflect the period in which it was built. This beautiful venue sits atop a picturesque knoll overlooking the historic town of Julian. Sherry Horton, owner of Oakwood Creek Celebrations, offers signature style that everyone—no matter their affair—will find "oh so easy". Growing up in rural Ohio, Sherry brings the style of country that is reminiscent of simpler gracious time, learning from her grandmother Emma Barrett of all things romantically beautiful. Sherry’s work has been featured in Country Living Magazine, Where Women Create, and San Diego Magazine.

Not only is it this gorgeous hidden gem, but it has a wonderful owner who makes you feel like your day is the most important day of her life as well. Our wedding went seamless and perfect and we’re still hearing our guests go on and on about how breathtaking the venue was. Sherry was amazing and always super fast to answer no matter the time or day. She was so accommodating and always made every visit fun. September was the perfect time, all the greenery was so lush! This is the kind of venue where for decor, LESS IS MORE. This place IS THE DECOR. Highly recommend this place!!”

“We have so many good things to say about the Ole Firehouse, we’re not sure where to start. In a gorgeous location with mountain and lake views, the Ole Firehouse is just a short drive from Julian. The venue has a HUGE amount of space inside and out—in addition to the main indoor-outdoor area, there’s a getting-ready room upstairs, a fully functional kitchen for any catering needs, plenty of parking, and a beautiful outdoor deck. The staff is easy to work with and very relaxed, which was such a pleasant change from other venues that insist on monitoring your every move. Getting to access the venue for three days for set-up and tear-down was also a game-changer. And finally, all of these amenities—including tables and chairs—came at a seriously amazing price. Bottom line: if you want a stress-free, beautiful space to host a wedding or a reception, book the Ole Firehouse ASAP! We feel so fortunate that we were able to celebrate our special day in this one-of-a-kind venue.”

“The winery, very much like its name, felt a lot like opening a book to read. So warm and inviting. And the history they know about their selections is impressive. They are small and family owned but very warm, very inviting, very cottagcore... which is my favorite. And they love to pair books and wine palettes/notes together, which I've never seen anyone else do. Highly recommend.”

“I’ve spent a lot of my life looking at structures and solutions, but what happened at Jackalope Ranch for our wedding wasn't about the architecture of a building—it was about the architecture of a soul-level experience. ​We came into this day looking for something authentic and grounded, and what we found was a crew that didn't just "work" an event; they cared for us like family. Amidst record, unseasonably hot weather that could have easily derailed the outdoor spirit of the day, the staff ensured every moment felt effortless. ​Erinmary and Destiny were quiet anchors. We never had to look for them; they were simply there, anticipating needs before they were even spoken. Lillian and Gilbert are names we will carry with us for the way they treated us - we will say hi from now on when we see them. My friends and family haven't stopped talking about the food—several people told me it was the best they’ve ever had at any wedding, period. Even as someone who isn’t a drinker, I heard nothing but praise for the bartenders and the spirit they brought to the house. ​There is a weight to a day like this, a vulnerability in standing before those you love. Jackalope Ranch gave us the room to breathe. Whether it was the privacy of the events room to cool off, the stunning backdrop for our first look, helping to arrange the seating and tables or the photo shoot at the bar, they gave us the run of the place with our best interests at heart. We felt like celebrities, but more importantly, we felt seen and supported. ​I suggested they could say they "put the elope in Jackalope," but for us, they put the heart in it. It was flawless, honest, and truly unforgettable.”

“From our first conversation with the team at Ranch of the Sun, we knew we had found the right venue. They listened to what we wanted and answered our questions right away, making the whole planning process feel easy. We booked through WEDSTAY and appreciated how transparent and organized they were with every detail. On our wedding day, the venue itself set the tone for everything. Between the view and the fact that we got to bring our own vision to life. It truly did all came together to create the exact atmosphere we had envisioned. The staff was attentive and smooth, handling everything behind the scenes so we could focus on celebrating. We'd absolutely recommend Ranch of the Sun to any couple looking for a venue that delivers on both the experience and the value.”

Mt. Woodson Castle by Wedgewood Weddings

Ramona, CA
  • Up to 250 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $12,000

Perched in the rolling hills of Ramona, California, Mt. Woodson Castle is one of Southern California's most extraordinary wedding destinations, where old-world grandeur meets the untamed beauty of the San Diego backcountry. Built as a private dream home by dress designer Amy Strong, construction began in 1909 and culminated in 1920 as a stunning embodiment of the American Craftsman Movement. Amy personally selected stones from the slopes of Mt. Woodson, building with eucalyptus, oak, and redwood harvested on-site. No chalk lines were used, leaving uneven floors and rooflines that give the castle its irreplaceable soul. The 12,000-square-foot, 27-room masterpiece features 4-foot-thick walls, four fireplaces, and an eclectic identity blending European, Medieval, Mesoamerican, Mediterranean, and East Asian influences, crowned by a working windmill. Just 40 minutes from downtown San Diego — unlike anywhere else in Southern California.

“We worked with Knife House in 2023 2024 for an annual event for one of our agency's clients where we were tasked with curating a hospitality house space & hosting VIP dinners within the space. We received SOO many compliments on the space itself and it was such a hit! The Knife House team is great to work with as (especially in our 2nd year working with them) they totally understand the needs/complications of event hosting and the various tasks needed. They were up extremely communicative collaborative throughout our time planning the event and instrumental in it's success. When/if there was an issue with the venue prior to the event, they did all they could to rectify the situation on our behalf, including getting the cement power-washed so it would look it's best reinstalling lights that were not intended to be removed. Both of these elements were handled swiftly and professionally, and without question. Kim was a pleasure to work with and really collaborated with us, answering all of our questions and being available throughout the full planning event timeline to support however she could. This is a beautiful venue and would definitely recommend it for any upscale, modern setting you'll be looking for in the Palm Springs area!”

“A week before our wedding, we found out our event coordinator at the hotel we had worked with for a year was no longer there. When we arrived, the support team had about 4 days to learn about everything we had in place and take a years worth of planning and make it happen. I am so grateful to say that team did it! They whipped those four days into shape and created a beautiful wedding for us. Huge shout out to Maria and Liz who worked with our week of coordinators to make sure everything was perfect. There’s definitely some room for improvement in regards to staffing properly but overall we had a beautiful service and a fantastic reception and the staff at the saguaro did an amazing job! Also, there’s not a lot of venues where you can say the food at your wedding was fantastic and they did such a great job. They have a fantastic kitchen at the Saguaro. The Saguaro is not in any way a perfect place, but it is a place you choose because of the vibes and the warm hospitality of the team. We look forward to always visiting the Saguaro every time we come to Palm Springs and now we have a very special occasion we shared there to also remember it by. Thank you!”

“Married April 25th, 2026: Everything about the day was 100% perfect... except that I (bride) had to wait in my car to keep my bouquet out of the heat for 45 minutes while waiting for them to find a van. We had already requested a van prior to our wedding day, but it was very frustrating to have to wait, which did cut into our photography time. I was also disappointed that when the chairs were changed for the area, we were not informed and it was simply by luck that we had family touring the area prior to our wedding, so we were able to plan decorations around this change last minute. Other than that, every single employee was wonderful, on top of everything that we needed, and eager to help make our day perfect. The food was delicious; we went buffet style. I cannot recommend this place enough for your special day!”

Poway, CA

Designed for Connection, Not Just Celebration Traditional venues are often built around tight timelines—set hours, quick transitions, and a sense that everything must fit neatly into a single day. At Poway Equestrian Center, we’ve chosen a different approach. Our weddings are intentionally designed as multi-day, hosted ranch experiences. This means you’re not rushing from moment to moment. Instead, you’re given the time and space to settle in, connect with your guests, and fully enjoy each part of your celebration. Whether it’s a relaxed welcome gathering, a quiet morning getting ready, or a farewell brunch the next day, every moment feels more intentional when it isn’t compressed. We believe your wedding should feel like something you lived, not something that flew by.

It was a beautiful place to celebrate something meaningful, surrounded by nature and quiet charm.”
