“The Safari Park is a stunning wedding venue that I would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for a unique and memorable wedding day. We chose Kijamii Overlook, which had spectacular views of the safari area, with giraffes, rhinos, and antelope visible throughout the ceremony and reception. When we first toured the venue, we were blown away that we could actually have our wedding in such a beautiful and unique setting. The entire experience, from our initial tour and planning through the wedding day itself, went incredibly smoothly. Our sales coordinator, Magda, was informative, responsive, and always available to answer our questions. That responsiveness stood out immediately. When I first called, I was able to speak with someone right away and schedule a tour within a couple of weeks. With other venues, we sometimes waited weeks just to hear back. The planning process itself was an absolute breeze. Our coordinators, Anna and Delaney, gave us their full attention throughout, and the wedding day went as smoothly as we could have hoped. We were blown away when we saw the venue with the tables, flowers, and full setup in place. Another huge plus was the included park admission. Many of our guests spent the day exploring the Safari Park before the wedding and loved it, which made the whole experience even more memorable. The catered food was also absolutely delicious and genuinely exceeded our expectations. Overall, the Safari Park was an easy 5/5 for us. The setting is spectacular, the staff were fantastic, and the entire experience felt incredibly special. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a beautiful, memorable wedding venue—especially animal lovers.”

“Wedgewood was like a dream come true for us! We had been searching for almost a year for venues, and we finally found the orchard. The venue location was beautiful, small and intimate for our wedding. From day one, the team at the Orchard really helped us make our dream come true. They were incredibly flexible with us, gave us ideas even we hadn't thought of, and with the premier package we selected, it removed so much additional stress we would have had to worry about. The day of our wedding, we had some delays on our part but our day-of coordinator Anissa really pulled through for us, and beautiful day went without a hitch. Our guests loved the environment, and they STILL talk about how delicious the food was (It's currently my biggest brag). 100% over and over, I would HIGHLY recommend a Wedgewood venue to anyone looking to get married without so much added stress, big or small. Thank you Wedgewood!”

“Tremar Ranch is a fantastic venue! We had our baby shower here and it was perfect. If you're looking for a venue that strikes the perfect balance between polished and homey, this is it. This outdoor desert oasis has everything you need to host a great event without losing that warm, backyard feel. What makes this place stand out is how thoughtfully it's laid out. There are multiple areas, each with its own charm. A large grassy area provides a blank canvas for tables, chairs, tents, etc, The pool area adds a touch of resort-style class, while the tennis courts and surrounding gazebos offer great options for entertainment or quieter corners for conversation. It's rare to find a venue that can feel both high-quality and down-to-earth, but this one nails it. It’s ideal for weddings, family reunions, milestone birthdays, or even company events where you want guests to feel both impressed and comfortable. The hosts are also incredibly warm, helpful, and excellent communicators. Couldn't recommend TreMar Ranch enough!”
