“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!! :)”

“If we could give Wedgewood 100 stars, we would. We were in the planning process for almost 2 years, and during that time, we had to navigate a lot of changes with the venue due to new winery ownership. It could have easily been an incredibly stressful process, but the entire team handled everything with absolute grace, professionalism, and unmatched care. They went completely above and beyond for us every single step of the way. First and foremost, we have to talk about our incredible coordinator, Alison. There are truly no words to describe how amazing she is. Throughout the entire process and especially on the day of, we genuinely felt like she was reading our minds. Her intuition, attention to detail, and execution are flawless. She took every single vision we had and made our dream wedding come to life. We didn't have to worry about a thing because Alison was always three steps ahead. She loves what she does and cares so deeply about making sure her couples are over the moon happy and we truly cannot thank her enough. I have so many pictures of me bawling and looking absolutely shocked when she walked us into our reception hall for the first time - I couldn’t believe that I was looking at MY wedding! We could not have asked for anything more. We also owe a massive thank you to Tori, Amanda Jo, and Daly. They were so supportive, incredibly responsive, and made us feel so cared for. They all tackled the changes that the winery made with the utmost consideration and care - I cannot imagine being in their position having to manage the unplanned changes that they did, but they acted with no hesitation and complete transparency from the beginning. We trusted them completely and are so happy that we did. Every single one of them also brought amazing energy and dedication to making sure our wedding day was spectacular. The venue itself is beautiful, but it’s the people who make it extraordinary. If you are considering Wedgewood Weddings at Truffle Pig or any location, you are in for the most incredible planning process and wedding day. Our guests could not stop talking about the food, the scenery, the vibe, and the flow of the day. It truly was perfect in every aspect. Thank you, Alison, Tori, Amanda Jo, and Daly, for giving us the best day of our lives!”

“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.”

“We had our wedding at Carter Lane Estates, and it couldn’t have been more beautiful! We had our ceremony on the lawn, tucked away and surrounded by gorgeous landscaping of rock work and olive trees. We had our reception in the barn, and everything was exactly as we hoped. Jennifer was so kind, communicative, and very easy to work with! Since she knows the layout of her property so well, she knew what decor would look good, and where to place furniture and vendors. Jennifer assisted with the supervision of our chair and arbor deliveries, and was the point person for the rest of the vendors, so the bride and groom could relax. She made the whole event seamless!

“Rented this house for our daughter’s 15-person micro-wedding in May. It was the perfect venue with endless picture-perfect options for photos, meals, and activities. It’s like having your own private resort. The pool area is amazing. In addition, the house was clean, well appointed, and rooms are well laid-out for everyone to not feel like they were on top of each other. There are quite a few steps both inside and out so if you have anyone with mobility issues it could be challenging. The TRAVLR staff was very responsive and helpful with all of our questions. We had a number of pretty specific inquiries about types of dishes and glasses, etc. (for the wedding dinner) and they were always prompt and thorough in their replies. They even tracked down and shipped some bathing suits that were left behind. We appreciated their attention to detail. Casa Tierra exceeded all expectations - I just wish we had stayed longer!”

“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.

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.

We require a buyout of our amazing vintage campers, along with a venue fee.

“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!

“The Lake Cuyamaca and Ole Firehouse wedding venue is an absolute must for any outdoor lovers! I have camped, hiked and backpacked the Cuyamaca Recreation & Park District many times, but when I learned that they offer a space for weddings that's affordable, we didn't look anywhere else. We just booked it. Kelly Little (the event coordinator) is incredible! She is friendly, helpful and quick to respond to any questions you have. We got married on October 31, 2025. The weather was perfect, and the fall colors even more stunning! Something that is so special about this venue is that it's secluded. Besides a few geese (paid actors) in the background, it's quiet and romantic. We especially liked being able to DIY everything and set up the reception just how we wanted, because it was available for set up the day before, and clean up the day after. The perfect amount of time, for the perfect amount of . A special thanks to Kelly and the rangers who helped with a few logistics that came up on the day of 3 I highly recommend this amazing venue!”
