Everything about our experience with Venture was genuinely terrific from start to finish. A team of hard-working people who are willing to help with anything that they are able to. Communication was top-notch throughout the entire process, and the kindness exemplified by everyone who works there could not be overstated. The location is not only beautiful, but the positive energy one feels when walking around and staying on site is so powerful! I knew it was where I wanted to get married the moment I got out of the car on my first visit. Prior to visiting venture, we had looked at several other locations and had done a ton of online research. Many other venues were outrageously priced, even at a base cost, with basic amenities being additional costs. On top of being more expensive from the jump, the environments offered were not nearly as beautiful and fully realized as Venture. The newly built kitchen is stunning and so functional! All of the bathrooms with flushable toilets, electricity, and outlets made my less nature oriented guests feel very comfortable. Overall, everybody had a fantastic time, and every need my husband I had throughout this process was more than met. You will not regret spending time here at Venture Retreat Center, whether that’s for your wedding or just to book a stay for an escape from stressful life. Book with Venture, your heart will be happy! 3

Seriously the hottest up-and-coming venue in the entire Monterey Bay area - where the beautiful and unique grounds are only the surface! Every aspect of the venue has been carefully thought out to accommodate the wedding party, guests, and vendors perfectly. The tropical foliage of the ceremony lawn offered a stunning backdrop for our vows (plus the sweet scent that wafts from nearby strawberry fields). The reception area was the perfect size and layout for our guests to eat, drink, play games, and dance throughout the night - cozy but spacious at the same time. Brothers Ranch was so beautiful and so well designed that we really didn’t need many of our own decorations. Also a huge plus for us was having access to the space for the entire weekend (Friday-Sunday) so we had plenty of time for setup and we didn’t have to worry about cleanup at the end of our wedding night! But the true heart of this venue is Jessie and Jonathan Brothers. More gracious hosts than venue owners, they helped us every step of the way to have an amazing and stress-free wedding. They both went above and beyond running around the whole weekend handling all of the little details to provide a seamless experience for us and our guests, from giving golf cart rides between the reception and ceremony spaces to rolling out heaters after sundown. So a big thank you to Jessie and Jonathan and definitely book Brother Ranch - the best venue in all of Monterey Bay for an amazing, beautiful, stress-free, and super fun wedding!

JeanieC Charcuterie Featured at Santa Barbara Weddings' Whimsical Spring Showcase We had a wonderful experience hosting our grazing table display at Live Oak Unitarian Universalist Church for Santa Barbara Weddings' Whimsical Spring showcase. The event staff were incredibly helpful and attentive to our needs from start to finish. The kitchen facility exceeded our expectations—beautifully maintained, well-stocked, and spotlessly clean.

We truly couldn't have asked for a more perfect venue for our wedding day. We were able to stay at Shadows for the long weekend - which allowed us to set up and DIY most our wedding. Our family and closest friends got to stay with us on the property for the weekend, which made it feel so much more special - and made us feel like we had so much time to take our wedding weekend in with everyone (rather that just one day). The venue was so spacious, which made the event feel large and free - rather than everyone being on top of each other. We used the following spaces for each part of our wedding: - Backyard grass and overlook - Ceremony - Front yard grass - Dinner & Speaches - Barn - Desserts, Snacks, Seating / Lounge Area, Guest Book - Barn Deck - Dancefloor & DJ We worked with Scena as our day-of coordinator and she was THE BEST! Helped so much with timeline, setup, coordination, rehersal, clean up - EVERYTHING! Truly could not say enough good things about her.

Haley was incredibly attentive throughout the event, handling every detail with care and ensuring we had everything we needed in the moment.

If you're a couple in the market for an intimate, beautiful, well run, wedding venue look no further than booking Forgotten Barrel. Being a mini rustic oasis tucked in a quiet residential track, off the beaten path, this venue (and its wine selection) will surprise you in the best way! We just had our wedding 4/24/26 and from beginning to end we had the best experience. We had explored the details of around 50 venues for our 80 guest wedding and FB offered the absolute best atmosphere and overall inclusive package to follow our budget. Being you do have the option to a la carte the venue, I highly reccomend their inclusive package. Including catering options from Chef Joanne, Donut Hello dessert cart, month of coordination, a variety of optional decor to utilize, DJ Frank, bridal and groom suites and of course an unlimited wine/beer/seltzer/non alcoholic bev bar. The venue coordinator Alyssa, event coordinator Libby, DJ Frank, Paolo from donut hello, and the rest of the FB staff were just 5 stars in making our day a success. Our guests even 2 weeks later have not stopped raving of having the best time. They loved the food, the music, and the overall vibe of the venue. Some said the best wedding they've been to. So again, if youre looking to host your wedding or any event 100 guests or under please consider Forgotten Barrel. You will be happy you did!

From our first conversation with the team at Saratoga Springs, we knew we'd found our venue. They responded quickly to every question and gave us thorough answers that made planning feel easy and stress-free. The space itself is truly special—it's spacious enough to welcome all our guests while still feeling intimate, with a nostalgic charm that felt like stepping into a fairy tale. What really stood out was how much they paid attention to the details that mattered to us as a couple. They listened to what we wanted and made sure every aspect of our day reflected our vision.

The setting is spectacular. We had 80 guests who came from all over and we had a beautiful October evening wedding. We were married in the driveway overlooking the San Juan Valley and Gablan Mountains, had our reception in the courtyard, and dinner by the pool. We brought in our own vendors (caterers, dj, photographer, florist) and MVR was very accommodating - always there to help, but not in the way. Our guests really enjoyed the town of San Juan and access to the Monterey Penninsula. We made a weekend of it! Best day ever.

Where to start off, first my Fiancée and I just got married at CRC on 11.10.25 , we want to thank ALL the CRC Staff that came together on our behalf and behind the scenes. To our coordinators Tracey and Tobie for going above and beyond for us. Also to Alex our florist, our beautiful florals and every other staff member who made this day unforgettable. Tracey is well organized and to say she is more than capable is an understatement. Anything we needed, was taken care of. Any questions we had were answered almost immediately. Any issues there may have been, I didn’t even know about and if I found out later it was already resolved with another solution. They truly took care of us at CRC. I can honestly say Tracey, Tobie, and every staff member went above and beyond for us! We are truly overwhelmed with the details, the time, and dedication everyone gave to us that day. It was perfect in every aspect . The food was amazing through their direct caterers, both James and Lorena at Redtail catering took such great care of us and all our guests. We felt the love and support from every angle with the CRC family. Tracey captivated every moment and detail that we asked for with her talented creativity, her transparency, & seasoned experience. Since day one we almost immediately fell in love with the property & knew that we could trust Tracey with this important task of helping us plan our special day. . . A beautiful ranch , in wine country during fall what more could a bride and groom ask for? If you are searching for the perfect Temecula venue look no more. Please book that tour sis you won’t regret it . . . CRC will forever hold a special place in our hearts. . . We thank you all from the bottom of hearts we are truly blessed and are grateful for each and every one of you! May God bless you! With all our love, - The Cornejo’s

Arrowhead Pine Rose Cabins provided a wonderful and accommodating experience for our wedding day. Their communication was fast, detailed, and they were incredibly helpful throughout the planning process. The venue itself had a lovely rustic and spacious feel, with the natural beauty of the outdoors. When a power outage occurred in one of the bridal party cabins, the staff was quick to resolve the issue by providing a backup room with generator power. The DJ, officiant, and on-site coordinator were all included in our package and helped ensure the day unfolded seamlessly. We were able to bring our "Twilight" vision to life thanks to the stunning natural setting.

We toured Scribner Bend last November as a wedding venue option and immediately fell in love with the venue!!! We were looking for a venue that was intimate yet romantic and this venue checked off all of our boxes. The romantic, garden-esque setting is absolutely stunning and was everything we dreamed of for our wedding. From start to finish, working with the Scribner Bend team was such a breeze and truly made wedding planning fun and stress free. When we first booked, Shaye was the wedding facilitator and she was absolutely fantastic to work with. Later, we got to work with Hillary, their new wedding facilitator and she was just as amazing! So attentive, quick to answer questions and always accommodating of any last-minute requests. They really have such a well-oiled team and their amazing list of preferred vendors made the entire process seamless. We were married on a Friday which meant we had the wonderful bonus of hosting our rehearsal and rehearsal dinner at Scribner the night before. It was such a fun, easy experience and set the tone for the big day. Paesanos, their in-house caterer was fantastic (separate review) and they provided us with delicious wood-fired pizzas and two salads for our rehearsal dinner. All of our guests were raving about how good it was!! On our wedding day, we had access to the Bungalow for getting ready and wow!! it is such a beautiful, charming space. My bridesmaids and I loved spending the morning there. It has two make up stations that had great natural lighting and is great for making tiktoks! The guys had the Airstream, which was really unique and fun, though on our 100-degree wedding day it was a bit stuffy since the AC couldn't quite keep up (which is understandable for an Airstream!). Still, it was a cool and memorable space for them to get ready in. I cannot rave about Scribner Bend enough. The grounds are gorgeous, the staff is phenomenal and they truly helped create the most magical and smooth wedding day for us. I'd highly recommend this venue to anyone looking for a romantic, beautiful and well-supported place to say I do!!!!

We recently had our wedding at Suisun Valley Inn, and overall, it was a beautiful and memorable experience. One of the biggest highlights was being able to use the venue for three full days, which gave us extra time to relax and connect with our bridal party and loved ones. That extended access truly made a difference in how special the weekend felt. However, there were a few challenges that did impact our plans. The event barn, which was a key part of our original vision, was unfortunately not finished in time for our wedding. While we understand this was out of the owner’s control, we were disappointed that we were not refunded the full 2,000 deposit, especially since the change affected nearly every aspect of our day. Additionally, when we arrived, we were surprised to find the vineyard had been plowed without any prior notice. This forced another last-minute adjustment to our setup so we wouldn’t be facing a dirt lot. It would have been really helpful to have been told about that in advance. Despite these hiccups, the venue itself has so much potential and charm, and we did have a lovely wedding. I just hope some of these experiences can help future couples plan better or spark a few improvements from the venue for the future.

“Rachel was truly there in a pinch when we needed a wedding venue on extremely short notice-very short notice. She dried this brides tears and simply said, ‘Don’t worry, we’ve got this.’ From that moment on, she proved it every step of the way. She has been amazing to work with, and through this whole process, I’ve gained not just a dream venue but a lifelong friend.’

Going with Miller’s Landing was the best decision we ever made and we genuinely can’t recommend this venue enough!! Everything- and we mean everything- was above and beyond our expectations! The Millers: The entire Millers family is so incredibly kind, warm, and welcoming. From Terri’s kindness and patience showing us around and answering all of our questions, we knew right away that this was the place for us from that very first tour not only because the space was stunning but because we felt so cared for as if we were part of the family. But it didn’t stop there! Kellan was so thorough, kind, and patient and stayed in constant communication with us the entire time leading up to the wedding. We never had to hire a wedding planner because of how thorough she was!! Then when we went back a few times throughout the year to show our parents the space, we had the opportunity to meet Joe who was just as warm and welcoming and went out of his way to meet us to give our parents another full tour on the weekend. Not only that but he gave us great advice, and just made us feel so cared for! This is genuinely one of the nicest families we’ve ever met and couldn’t believe how lucky we were to have found a venue operated by such a loving family. The venue: Every part of the space is so perfectly designed, it genuinely feels like a fairytale space come to life! From the ceremony in the garden to the reception in the barn- it truly is the perfect mix of rustic charm and elegance! Then when we didn’t think it could get any better- in comes the bridal suite!! Every detail in the bridal suite was so perfectly designed, we still can’t believe how stunning it all was! To have such a beautifully designed space to get ready in was just the cherry on top to this perfect venue! Another perk we didn’t know about until we toured the space- the venue also has a TON of decor from previous weddings available for you to use for free! Being on a tighter budget, this was such an unexpected surprise and allowed us to add beautiful touches through decor that we may not have been able to afford otherwise! The vendors: One of the many perks of choosing Miller’s Landing was their list of amazing vendor recommendations! Since we knew going into this that we weren’t going to hire a wedding planner or coordinator, we were a little nervous about having to find all the vendors on our own, but having the venue supply such incredible recommendations was a HUGE time saver!! Not only are some of the biggest vendors already included in your package, but every other vendor we went with came right off their recommendation list! We cannot thank Miller’s Landing enough for such incredible recommendations and for all the stress this alleviated on our end!! The food, desserts, and bar drinks in particular were all out of this world, and we had guests coming us throughout the night to tell us this was the best food and desserts they’d ever had at a wedding! Overall, we couldn’t recommend Miller’s Landing enough, and we are forever grateful to the entire Millers family, vendors, day-of coordinators and staff for making our special day better than we ever could have imagined! We cannot wait to watch this venue continue to grow!!

Had an amazing 8 nights stay at Happy Hills Farm! The grounds are so gorgeous with all of the trees - kumquat, lemon, orange and avocado. The property surrounded by beautiful flowers. The hosts were the nicest people and their two young children were such a joy. We were so very comfortable in our space. Beautiful setting in the upstairs barn. The bed and bedding were luxurious- mattress and pillows. Shower was extremely nice. Even the sofa was relaxing and comfy. Nice deck on the outside to see the views of this VRBO.

Palm Springs offers dramatic desert venues with mountain backdrops and striking midcentury modern architecture that photographs beautifully.

How Much Do Wedding Venues in California Cost?
