The Ojai Retreat & Inn was everything we could have asked for for our wedding in early November!! We rented the whole property for our wedding party and the weekend felt like a dream oasis! Before the wedding, we were able to immerse ourselves in the serenity of the Ojai Retreat by taking a stroll on the nature path. We also enjoyed nearby restaurants (Bonnie Lu's for breakfast and Ca'Marco for our Rehearsal Dinner) that were a short car ride away. We used the living room area and the upstairs library for getting ready spaces and they were well air-conditioned and provided more than enough space for all of us- without the groom seeing the bride, of course. Then during our ceremony and reception, the beauty of the landscape and views made for marvelous photos and memories! It was truly magical and felt like an enchanted fairytale! On top of the beauty of the property, everyone who works at the Ojai Retreat & Inn is so kind and helpful! A special thank you to Dana and Lia for your help and to all the workers who helped move lawn furniture before our rentals needed to unload. They were so flexible with us and worked with us on our many random questions and requests. We can't wait to come back to the Ojai Retreat & Inn for our anniversaries!!

After touring venues consistently on Sunday mornings, we canceled future tours after visiting Hartley Botanica. When looking for a venue, we wanted it to be outdoors and breathtaking since both of us enjoy a special connection to nature. We also were not able to consider a destination wedding because many of our guests live locally and our love story mainly takes place in Southern California. For all of these reasons and more, Hartley Botanica became our venue. The team works incredibly hard to meet rising expectations and they definitely deliver. They are a dream team to work with and I love every step of the planning process. Planning a large event, especially a wedding is complicated and the team does their best to keep it simple and grant your every request. We are so thrilled with how our wedding turned out.

USSB was more than I could have wished for. I myself am catholic, however my now husband was not raised catholic therefore a traditional catholic wedding was not going to be an option for us. We got lucky enough that USSB was recommended to us before we had just settled on getting married at the court house. Although Santa Barbara is home to a beautiful court house, nothing would have compared to USSB. It was the most beautiful ceremony I could have asked for, allowing me to incorporate the perfect touches of a catholic ceremony with the freedom of being in a non-denominational setting. Joanie was also great to work with she kept us at ease every step of the way & was already readily available when we had any questions or concerns planning the ceremony in getting all the vendors aligned together. If you’re looking for a timeless traditional venue with a touch of church setting USSB is the place for you.

We hosted our reception at the Courtyard Santa Barbara Downtown right after getting married at the courthouse, and it was absolutely perfect. The rooftop was amazing and such a unique spot to celebrate with our guests. We kept things simple with a buffet and bar, and it was exactly what we wanted. Our guests were so surprised by the location and how beautiful the hotel itself is. The service was great, and the planning process beforehand was easy and stress-free. The only thing we had to coordinate was decor, everything else was provided by the hotel. The drive from the courthouse took less than five minutes, which made everything so easy. We loved it!!

Rancho de las palmas is what dreams are made of! I loved the fact that only one event happens at a time so we didn’t have to share the space with anyone else. From the beautiful bridal suite to the option for a tree house-like play area for the kids with the option to hire babysitters, the venue offers it all. As a bonus they even offer an option for a pay-it-forward room that offers an incredible amount of decor items to choose from and all the little details that can be stressful to put together or sometimes can be forgotten about like card holders or signage options. Getting married in southern california can be expensive but I found that their prices were incredibly reasonable in comparison to other places. What I was most impressed with were the professionalism and attentiveness of the coordinators Laura and Jenn. Laura was always there to answer questions and was right there from beginning to end to make sure that our day was perfect. When we had an issue with our cake delivery on the day of, they went above and beyond to take care of the problem while making sure everything ran smoothly and stress-free. Words cannot truly describe what an amazing experience our wedding was and Laura and Jenn were the ones that made it all possible. Thank you both! Would highly recommend to anyone looking to book a venue!

From the moment we booked The Gardens at Los Robles Greens almost two years ago, their communication was always prompt and informative. Leading up to the wedding, they answered all my emails promptly and always made me excited for my wedding. The venue provided a day for all couples getting married in the next 4-6 months to taste the delicious food options and see the elegant rental displays, which made it easy for us to envision our perfect day. We were getting married in May so our "tasting day" was in the November before. A month before the wedding, we met with the director to finalize the floor plan for our ceremony and reception, and they handled all the setup so everything looked electric, clean, and beautiful. The one challenge I had as a bride was their rule about not having a place to refrigerate the cake prior to it being set out during the wedding, but our baker was able to deliver it at the right time so that it stayed fresh during the evening. The Gardens at Los Robles Greens truly made our special day incredibly easy and stress-free. We are so grateful for their excellent service and stunning venue.

We looked at quite a few different venues across the state of California (from Piru all the way to Mendocino) and none of the others held a candle to how beautiful this venue is or how kind and helpful Crystal, the general manager, has been. We live in the Bay Area, so we relied heavily on Crystal’s recommendations for local vendors, all of whom were also excellent. The venue has a variety of ceremony sites, depending on your guest count and the vibe you’re going for. All of them are gorgeous. Every guest I talked to was completely blown away by this place. My favorite part of having our wedding here, though, was being able to spend the whole weekend with our wedding party. I feel like weddings are often really rushed affairs, where the people getting married barely get a chance to see even their closest friends and family. The hours surrounding our wedding were still a lot like this, but we also got to have breakfast and lunch and little moments throughout the day with our fiends that otherwise might have been spent driving or worrying about forgetting something at a separate hotel. Also the beds were way more comfortable than any hotel or airbnb bed I’ve stayed in recently. Not to mention the fact that the bridal suite is one of the dreamiest spaces I’ve ever hung out in.

Choosing Fogo de Chao for our rehearsal dinner was one of the easiest choices of the entire wedding. They made everything so easy for us. There were several food and beverage packages that we got to pick from and on the day of we were tucked away in a private area with our own set of servers. It couldn't have gone any better, everyone was really nice and treated both me and the guests like vips on the day of and the food was delicious. 10/10 would do again.

Everyone at Live Oak made it easy for us to achieve the wedding setup we envisioned. From showing us photos of the space with others' decor, to sending us links with suggestions, coming to the venue to help us plan at times that worked for us, working with us to create a checklist and timeline, and showing up early/ staying late to clean up, we felt that the people at Live Oak really wanted to help us achieve the wedding that worked for us. On the day of the wedding, it was nice to have the Cottage as a room to prep and primp, and I was able to see the arriving guests while staying unseen. We also stored flowers in the kitchen fridge, which helped keep them fresh. Overall, we were consulted as to our wishes prior to the event, then during the actual wedding, things that needed to be done "behind the scenes" were taken care of, which left us able to focus on our guests and each other.

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!!

The Sheraton Agoura Hills was a fantastic hotel for our wedding weekend. It was conveniently located next to our venue, and all of our guests enjoyed their stay. We hosted our rehearsal dinner there and also loved having breakfast at the hotel, and everything went smoothly. The staff was kind and accommodating, the food was good, and the bar was a fun place for guests to gather after the wedding. They worked with us on our room block and budget, and while we did need to remind them about some dietary needs like vegan, pescatarian, and kids’ meals, everything was handled and our guests were happy. It was a great home base for our wedding weekend.
