Hola, yo no soy de escribir reseñas pero en esta ocasión amerita hacerlo, si pudiera le diera 100 estrellas a Suisun Valley Inn. Desde el primer día que fuimos a conocer las instalaciones, el señor Gary fue muy atento y respetuoso, contestó a todas nuestras dudas. Tal vez nuestro evento fue algo fuera de lo común, a diferencia de los eventos de boda que se organizan aquí, nosotros contratamos el granero para el 25 de Diciembre para celebrar los 15 años de mi hija , sabemos que son días festivos donde la gente está con su familia , más sin embargo recibimos todo su apoyo para que el evento se hiciera realidad en este día tan especial , puedo decirles que fue una experiencia maravillosa, fue en evento de ensueño y de igual manera nos hospedamos en la casa, donde realmente nos sentimos como en nuestro hogar , sinceramente todas las instalaciones estuvieron limpias en todo momento, Gary estuvo al pendiente de si necesitábamos algo y al igual si la empresa que contratamos para la planeación necesitaban apoyo. Quiero animar a todos los papás que deseen hacerle su quinceañera a su hija, que consideren contratar los servicios de Suisun Valley Inn, ya que harán que su hija viva una experiencia única y de ensueño, no se arrepentirán. Sr Gary agradezco todas sus atenciones y muy pronto estaremos trabajando con usted para los 15 años de mi otra hija… Bendiciones

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.

We recently had the most magical wedding at The Genevieve in Santa Ynez, and we couldn't be happier with our choice! From the moment we stepped onto the property, we knew this was where we wanted to celebrate our special day. Our ceremony took place in the enchanting garden, surrounded by lush greenery and the sweet scent of flowers.

Her kindness and warmth made the entire planning process seamless, and her flexibility ensured that every detail was perfect from beginning to end. Pam's genuine soul truly shines through, and we couldn't imagine anyone better to oversee our dream venue. Following the ceremony, we enjoyed a delightful happy hour on the Lawn, where our guests mingled and enjoyed delicious hors d'oeuvres. The atmosphere was lively and joyful, setting the tone for the rest of the evening. For dinner, we moved to the private and intimate Coach Room, where the ambiance was cozy and romantic. The venue's character added a unique touch to our celebration, making it truly unforgettable. And let's talk about the food - it was absolutely divine! Nothing like any wedding meal we've had before. The culinary team at The Genevieve surpassed expectations. Not only is The Genevieve a fabulous and unique venue, but the entire experience was elevated by the exceptional service and attention to detail provided by the staff. From the premium beverage service to the spacious lawn with firepits, every aspect of our wedding was flawlessly executed. We also opted for a wedding experience, turning The Genevieve into our own private paradise for the weekend. The luxurious accommodations and amenities provided the perfect backdrop for pre-wedding pampering and post-reception relaxation. Overall, our wedding at The Genevieve exceeded all of our expectations. If you're looking for a wedding location on the Central Coast that combines luxury, sophistication, and garden glam, look no further than The Genevieve. We can't recommend it highly enough!

The Bel Vino team is the absolute best, specifically Sydnie! We had the pleasure of planning a wedding here and it was absolutely perfect. Throughout the entire process we felt nothing but confidence in the entire team. They were always so supportive and caring and helped address any concerns that we had that arose. Their level of professionalism and experience from each individual, including the entire staff was the very best. We heard from all of our guests such positive feedback and that the staff was always accommodating. Not to mention the food was amazing and our event captain Heather that night took care of everything. Our needs were always anticipated and met. It was like she could read our mind. She was awesome and could not recommend more. Our dj Andrea made sure our guests were entertained the entire night where everything felt smooth and relaxed. If you do choose to work with the Bel Vino team, you can’t go wrong with any of the staff.

My Husband and I had the most wonderful experience with Churon Winery as our Wedding Venue. Not only are the grounds absolutely gorgeous, but their customer service was outstanding! Meilee set the tone as the venue coordinator, and we cannot begin to express the friendliness, professionalism, and over all care she gave us while we planned our wedding and asked her a thousand questions. She was there for us every step of the way and shared in our excitement of our wedding, she's the BEST!

He was literally working nonstop and did it all with a smile. Robert at the hotel front desk was helpful and pleasant and made every accommodation he could to get us, and our guests settled into our rooms.

I don't even know what to say because I'm so overwhelmed with how perfect everything went on our wedding day. I get more and more obsessed the more I look back at photos! We were at their Villa de Fiore venue and I can't speak of it highly enough - the bridal suite is HUGE and so comfortable, and the groom's suite (though smaller) is also stunning. Being able to have the ceremony, cocktail hour and reception back to back in the same spot was so convenient, not to mention the stunning location. Everyone we worked with at Monserate was so amazing, professional and helpful. Hali took over as our main contact a few months before our wedding and she was an absolute gem, so friendly and incredibly helpful. She was also onsite day-of for anything we needed and helped the whole day run smoothly (even made sure I got my espresso martini before the ceremony after the bartenders told my maid of honor they couldn't serve us yet). She also gifted us a bottle of champagne with a sweet hand-written card afterwards and offered to buy us lunch any time we returned to their winery. Though this might be standard practice for their coordinators, it still meant a lot to us as a couple!

One of the best parts was the variety of on-site lodging options for our guests, which made the entire weekend so convenient and enjoyable for everyone. Tracey, Leslie, and Lacey from the CRC staff were amazing in every way. They were helpful, kind, and truly went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly. We couldn’t have asked for a better team to help us. Tracey was absolutely amazing in every way. From the very beginning of our wedding planning journey, she offered vendor recommendations and shared her honest, thoughtful opinions, which we truly appreciated. Throughout the process, Tracey regularly checked in with me, making sure I felt supported and didn’t have any unanswered questions. When it came to our rehearsal and the big day itself, Tracey went above and beyond. She ensured every detail aligned with our vision, kept everything running smoothly and on time, and made sure everyone was where they needed to be. Her presence brought us so much peace of mind.

Knowing they were completely prepared for rain gave us such peace of mind, and their flexibility ensured everything would have been just as beautiful no matter what the forecast decided to do. We couldn’t recommend Flying Cloud Farm more highly for any special event. It’s a magical place run by truly wonderful people!

From our engagement party to our wedding, Fortino Winery proved to be the PERFECT choice. Bri and Dawn, along with the owner Gino, made us feel supported every step of the way and went above and beyond to bring our vision to life. When we shared inspiration ideas, they connected us with vendors that fit our needs, and they were flexible with everything we requested, from custom drinks, custom bar and seating area to our cigar lounge, 360 photobooth, marquee signage, champagne wall and oyster shucker. Gino's cooking was outstanding-- guests couldn't stop talking about dinner and the late-night bites he prepared. The spacious grounds provided a beautiful backdrop to our wedding, and the whole team's customer service made planning stress-free. We're so grateful to Fortino Winery for making both our engagement party and wedding truly special.

Every staff member we worked with was kind, knowledgeable, and committed to helping create a day that was uniquely ours. A feature we absolutely loved was the Borrow Barn. Having access to such a wide selection of décor made the planning process so much easier and allowed us to create the look we wanted without the expense and hassle of purchasing everything ourselves.

The Red Barn Ranch was truly our dream wedding venue. Not only is it rustic and beautiful but it radiates love and family. The Rorabaugh's are the most down to earth and loving hosts you could ever hope for. They are there for you when you need but they also allow you a lot of freedom to create the exact experience you want. And they work hard to accommodate whatever you need for your special day. For example, she allowed me to have alpacas at our wedding and talked to the Alpaca handler about the best way to get in and set up so I didn't have to. Our wedding was a dream; from the rehearsal dinner at the venue and staying in the bridal suite, to the hustle of getting ready, to walking down the aisle and finally to dancing the night away. The accommodations were unparalleled and the venue is so beautiful, it saved me tons on florals and decor. Also when booking this venue, you get access on Friday and don't have to be gone until 3 the following Sunday. They also allow guests to camp in tents or bring RVs. This was one of my favorite parts about our wedding. A lot of my family stayed in their RVs and the morning after the wedding, it was the cutest and most fun little camp site. The proprietor woke in the morning to feed their cows and invited my little cousins to join. They also brought out their horses and my niece got to ride a horse for the first time. The pond is an adorable hang out spot where they allow catch and release fishing and rides around in the canoe plus it is an amazing background for pictures. My little nephews were having the best time chasing frogs and catching fish. When you book your wedding or other special event with Red Barn Ranch, you are not going to be disappointed. You are booking the most perfect experience with some of the most wonderful and caring people.

My husband and I got married at Secluded Garden Estate back in February. I have no regrets in choosing this venue. There were some hiccups right before and after our event happened. The venue owners were very kind and welcoming to us and what our vision was. It is on their home property so be prepared to share the smaller Bridal Suite area and possibly hear some noise as you’re getting ready. There was no all inclusive package available for us so we had to bring EVERYTHING and get it from, outside vendors. We chose this so that we could make it more our own. They did offer heaters for a certain price but we chose not to use them after all. The day of staff were so incredibly helpful, all the men that were there offered to lend a helping hand to our family as they cleaned up. Because of this, there was some miscommunication between us and the vendor owners. So, please be clear with the staff that you do not want to get charged for something that you aren’t supposed to. Also, make sure to just communicate with the owners of how you should coordinate with the vendors, such as day and time of drop off and pick up. (Ex. Tables and chairs) Overall, we loved this venue. It was what we had envisioned for our special day and we are blessed because of it. Hope this helped someone!!! :D

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

Which California Venues Are Fully Accessible?

The Griffith House features wheelchair-accessible pathways throughout its Spanish-style grounds including the private ceremony lawn and separate preparation spaces for couples. You might also consider Holman Ranch Sunstone Winery and Villa del Sol d'Oro though you'll want to directly confirm their specific accessibility features when you visit. Accessibility options have improved greatly across California venues in recent years.

When Should You Book Your California Wedding Venue?

October leads venue inquiries in California with couples typically booking venues about 13 months (400 days) before their wedding date. If you're dreaming of a Northern California wine country wedding during peak season you'll want to book up to 18 months in advance. Southern California venues offer more flexibility especially during winter months when you can still enjoy beautiful weather while potentially securing better rates.
