From the moment we booked Fruitcraft Winery & Distillery for our wedding, Alan and Mari provided detailed and timely communication every step of the way. Their gorgeous venue with lush live plants and moody lighting created the perfect moody October atmosphere for our special day. The outdoor patio was a beautiful backdrop for our ceremony, and the amazing cocktails and drinks they served were a huge hit with our guests. Fruitcraft Winery & Distillery truly went above and beyond to make our wedding day everything we dreamed of and more.

We had our wedding at Topos Mexican Restaurant, and it was absolutely perfect! One of the best parts was being able to have both our ceremony and reception in one place—it made everything so convenient for us and our guests, and the flow of the day felt seamless. The venue had a great setup with a separate room available to get ready, which was a huge plus and gave us a moment to breathe and prepare before the ceremony. The atmosphere was warm, welcoming, and had that unique charm we were looking for. The staff at Topos were so accommodating and professional throughout the entire process. Everything from setup to service went smoothly, and we truly felt supported the entire day. If you’re looking for a beautiful, stress-free venue with amazing food and an all-in-one setup, I highly recommend Topos. It made our day so special, and we’ll always be grateful

How lucky am I to get married where I work! As someone who works weddings every weekend, it was surreal to finally be on the other side and I truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience than with Flora The Venue. I might be a little biased, but the coordination team is genuinely top-tier. A huge thank you to Jameson, Jade, Ash, Angie, and Adam for making my husband and myself feel so supported and celebrated every step of the way. Most of all, I’m so grateful to Katherine, Flora’s owner, for her constant support, guidance, and generosity throughout the planning process. From start to finish, I felt taken care of not just as a client, but as part of the Flora family. Our guests couldn’t stop raving about the venue’s lush greenery and stunning ambiance, many said they never expected such a magical space tucked right in the heart of downtown San Diego. Flora will always hold such a special place in our hearts 3

The Vistonian was a lovely venue! We loved all of the greenery and natural light inside the venue. It was spacious and allowed for plenty of room for our guests. The bridal suite was also spacious with lots of mirrors and outlets. We used the venue for both ceremony and reception. It was an easy transition going from one to the next. We worked with Shelly, the venue coordinator, and she was fabulous! Great communication from when we toured, booked, and up to our big day. The value for what we got was amazing as well! We did their all inclusive package and were happy with the price for all that we got: tables & chairs, bridal suite, catering, open bar, and DJ. Honestly, so great if you're on a budget or have a bigger budget and want to spend more on something like decor or florals. Highly recommend!!

The most important thing to me when planning my wedding was the quality of the food. I wanted my guests to leave saying it was one of the best meals they'd ever had. I am a wedding vendor and I know that large catered meals are usually blah at best. I got exactly what I wanted at Redbird. The food was AMAZING and their event spaces are gorgeous. Everything else was okay. The information we received at the initial walk-through ended up being less-than-accurate. It's frustrating that there is no real holding space for the smaller spaces when there are multiple events happening at the same time unless you pay for them. It's frustrating that *despite asking before signing a contract and being told it would be fine*, we were not allowed to take photos in any other areas of the building except the one we rented. There were often huge delays in responses to emails. They lost the bottle of wine we specifically requested to take home for our first anniversary (and which we were, of course, billed for). But overall, the food made the frustration worth it.

Nestled among towering trees in San Marcos, California, Twin Oaks is a hidden garden wedding venue surrounded by lush gardens, twinkling rose arbors, tranquil waterfalls, romantic statuary, and the charm of a historic 1891 estate. Twin Oaks offers a celebration experience that feels private, timeless, and beautifully romantic. Couples can begin the day in the restored Grand Parlor or traditional Gentlemen’s Clubhouse before choosing from distinctive ceremony settings including the Natural Forest, Wooden Turn-Post Gazebo, Rustic Atrium, and Braided Ivy Archway and Fountain. Guests then gather in the Heart of the Garden Reception, where shaded forest, billowing drapery, designer gardens, blooming florals, historic trees, and trickling fountains create a romantic outdoor atmosphere before dinner and dancing continue beneath a grand tented pavilion adorned with elegant chiffon, crystal chandeliers, and personalized décor.

Getting married at Twin Oaks was one of the best decisions we could have made. The venue is gorgeous and a fairy tale dream. From the moment we booked, the process was effortless. Our coordinator Jennifer was absolutely amazing. Her communication throughout the entire process was always top of the line. Everyone from family, to bridal party, to wedding guests complimented the effort of Jennifer and the entire team. The day of she made all of our worries non existent. I cannot thank her and the entire team enough for making our wedding day perfect! If we could get married again, we would not change a thing because of how perfect of a day it was!

So I came to this brewery once before it was set to be the venue for my college friends wedding, since I lived close by and I’d already heard of it before from coworkers my bf and I decided to make a date night of it and check it out. I will say as a brewery I loved the vibe inside with live music, good beer, food trucks that were amazing that day plus I’m a sucker for brewery board games and dogs so all around great time! I’m not gonna lie though being there I couldn’t really envision it as a wedding venue at the moment, it was just a very different setting from ones I’ve been to before and when they said ceremony and reception would all be at the same place I was honestly confused on how it would all work.. So when I say I was absolutely AMAZEDDDD like jaw dropped instantly a few weeks later coming back in for the wedding it almost didn’t seem like the same place - the whole venue was reserved for the event and they were able to transform the seemingly small space into such a beautiful rustic and romantic setting for a wedding I was shook and stunned and all the things - turns out love makes magic possible and I just know nothing about special awareness apparently lol so aside from all the flowers and decor inside making it a dark aesthetic dream the back area was actually laid out diagonally for the ceremony and perfectly suited for an aisle with seating on both sides that didn’t feel crowded at all. It was a beautiful outdoor ceremony with no actual outside type noises like we heard no cars or any business distractions (which is kind of a pet peeve for me when attending outdoor weddings) just the live singer/guitarist! and then after the ceremony we were able to seamlessly transition into cocktail hour inside the brewery which just felt so right cause duh and by the time we made it back outside for reception it was somehow transformed again with tents and tables for dinner plus a dance area with the DJ and lights! I would never ever have guessed this beautiful wedding venue I was dancing in under white twinkly lights was the same place I was playing giant jenja in with my bf listening to covers of emo bands just a few weeks prior. All around great use of the space and this is just extra I guess but it was so close to the 101 freeway getting home was a breeze for us personally and I know a lot of the family was staying just up the street at the hotels nearby so when the newlyweds did their sparklers send off and drove away from the back area it was actually a great way for everyone to make their way around to the parking lot and disperse for the night. idk about most but personally I just love a clean getaway after the bride and groom leave post wedding.. So if you made it this far thanks for reading, hope it helped and apologies for the super long rant I just can’t get over this place enough and as I’m now looking for venues myself as a 2028 bride I came across this place and had to stop to write about it cause this one definitely changed my whole perception on what a venue could become, it altered my mentality of not judging a venue by what it looks like initially cause potential and vision are truly everything and they have that here for sure! So I wanted to drop by and give them their flowers and to help out those considering it, from my first hand experience because if I wasn’t having a destination wedding this place would definitely be a contender for us. Anyways, Happy venue hunting and congrats to future newlyweds!!

Without a doubt, Hotel Cerro is the perfect venue for an intimate wedding. My fiancé and I decided to plan our wedding to coordinate with our anniversary month and didn’t take into consideration that it was…3 months away. Haha! However, Hotel Cerro and their event planning manager, Jessica, made the experience as stress free as possible. The ceremony space is located on their second floor terrace. You are welcomed by a lush wall of greenery and glass paneling that gives you a view of the beautiful fig trees on the first floor. Across the terrace, is a full length glass wall that opens into the dining area where we had our reception. The space is intimate and inviting with exposed brick walls and windows that look down onto Garsden St. When touring the venue, Jessica was warm, friendly and easy to talk to which instantly took away some the nerves of the planning process. She took the extra time to get a feel for what we wanted for our wedding and offered suggestions of what we could do with the space. The fact that we didn’t have anything planned and a short timeline didn’t seem to phase her at all! She made it obvious that although we didn’t have a lot of time, she was going to keep us on track and get everything planned with us in time. During the tour we saw that the hotel also has an upper level pool area, “Fig Veranda” and an edible garden which are all perfect areas to do wedding photos. Each area has a different feeling to it and it added variety to our photos without having to go all over town. Plus, we had so much fun running around the hotel with our photographer the day of! Throughout the planning process, Jessica was responsive and made sure to keep me updated on due dates and what the next steps were for the planning process. If I had any questions (and I had a lot haha!), she made sure to get me whatever answers I needed quickly and offered multiple options if there were any. Their preferred flower vendor delivered us beautiful arrangements and set them up before the wedding which allowed us to focus on getting ready. They also had our personal flowers delivered to our room and sent photos of the table set up as a “sneak peek”! We stayed at Hotel Cerro for the weekend of our wedding and was pleasantly surprised by how luxurious our loft room was. It had more than enough space for our friends to visit while we got ready and took us about 5 seconds to get to the ceremony area. The staff was very welcoming and seemed to be just as excited as we were that we were having our wedding there! The wedding day was everything that we could have dreamed of and more. The ceremony space was set up on time which allowed us to put out decorations, the floor plan and day of time line was followed exactly how we had planned and the reception dinner was delicious! The staff was also extremely friendly and attentive to everyone during the event. Overall, I wholeheartedly recommend Hotel Cerro if you’re looking for an intimate wedding venue. With the help of Jessica, the planning and execution of our wedding day went as smoothly as one could have hoped for and allowed us to truly enjoy our special day without additional worries!

My husband and I were on a budget for our wedding (like most people). We came to Fogo with low hopes that it would be in our range, but after finding out about their packages we were BLOWN away by the prices!! We were able to treat the most important people of our wedding to a full on feast! Everyone was super nice and service was top notch! Would def come again on our own, overall, it was a wonderful time. The desserts were also super good, not to mention the drinks!

We couldn't be happier with our experience at the Stone House! They worked with us and our budget and were very generous in finding creative ways to bring cost down while maintaining our vision. The food was over the top - better than imagined for cooking for such a large size party. Such colorful, nutrient dense and seasonal dishes! So many of our guests commented on the quality. The space is just gorgeous - perfect backdrop for photos. Also, the owner Jonathan Rowe did an epic job DJing for us. Highly recommend. We look forward to many date nights returning to the Stone House to reminisce and would love to have an anniversary party in their cave someday.

The Terrace Room was the perfect venue for our wedding day. From the very beginning, the staff, especially Candi and Bryon, were friendly, simple, quick, and incredibly helpful in planning our wedding all the way from Paris. They gave us great tips on vendors that really helped make our day magical. The venue itself is beautiful, with a lovely art deco style that felt elegant and unique. Our guests raved about the gorgeous space, the friendly staff (bar tenders, ...), and how well everything came together to make our wedding day truly perfect.

Our wedding at Summit House Restaurant was an absolute dream come true. From the very first interaction, the team there was transparent, professional, and clearly knew exactly what they were doing. The natural beauty of the venue lent itself to so many unforgettable moments and photos that we'll cherish forever. The Summit House team, from planning and ceremony coordination with LeeAnn, to the entire service team during cocktail hour and reception, ensured everything was seamless. They made sure we were well-informed and had everything we needed, and we loved that we were able to secure our own vendors while also using a couple from their preferred list. The gorgeous landscaping, accessible location, great food and service, and affordable pricing made Summit House the perfect choice for our special day. We couldn't recommend them more highly and would get married there all over again if we could!

Vida sat down with us and helped us cherry pick the meals we wanted to serve. The plates courses were too good to be true and the food was of the best quality and flavor. Highly recommend. The Coordinator: Vida was simply phenomenal at what she did. She made great recommendations and the day of made sure things were executed to my wife and I’s liking.

Venue considerations

  • Best for events with big guest lists
  • Not wheelchair accessible
  • No built-in audiovisual options
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.

The beer (obviously) was amazing, and they even let us bring our own wine for a small corkage fee, which was perfect for our wine-loving family.

Went to a wedding at Rick & Roxy’s and it was honestly one of the coolest wedding venues I’ve been to. What made it different was having two completely different spaces in one place. Rick’s side was great early in the night with good drinks, easy to talk with others, and a really cool atmosphere to hang out and catch up with people. The craft cocktails were surprisingly legit. Then once things shifted over to the Roxy’s side, the whole vibe changed. It felt more clubby which was my type of vibe then a generic wedding venue dancefloor. People that normally don’t dance ended up staying on the floor. It never felt overly formal or forced just a really fun night with a great flow from cocktails to party mode. If you want a wedding venue that people actually remember and talk about after, this place nails it.

About wedding venues in California

California offers an incredible 840 miles of coastline, 3,000+ wineries and ancient redwoods for your wedding day. When you choose the Golden State, you're getting exceptional natural lighting for your ceremony across diverse settings from Mediterranean coastal zones to alpine mountain backdrops. Each region has its own distinctive character that can perfectly match your vision.

What Makes California Wedding Venues So Special?

Northern California's Napa Valley welcomes you with rolling vineyards and Spanish colonial architecture where intimate wine cave ceremonies create unforgettable moments. Head to Southern California and you'll find oceanfront venues like Duke's Malibu where you can exchange vows with the Pacific stretching out behind you while enjoying fresh coastal-inspired cuisine. 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?

Wedding venues in California typically run between $9,600 and $11,700 which aligns nicely with the national range of $6,500-$12,000. This represents about 18% of your total wedding budget. Your overall costs will vary based on guest count: - 50 guests: $26,190 - 100 guests: $43,692 - 150 guests: $60,141 - 200 guests: $74,836 - 250 guests: $89,530 - 300 guests: $104,224

When Should You Book Your California Wedding Venue?
