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.

“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.”
