“The Secret Garden At Rancho Santa Fe was an absolute dream venue for our wedding! This venue came with the best team and I would 10000% recommend them to anyone looking for a seamless experience and beautiful wedding. From the moment we first reached out, the team was responsive, quick, and clear in their communication, making the planning process smooth and stress-free. Kendra did our initial tour and did a great job laying everything out on the table so there wouldn’t be any surprises. We could not believe everything that was included and the value- but it truly is an all inclusive experience. Mary was great with communication and answered all of my questions (even the really silly ones). On the day of, the quality of their work was truly amazing - they executed my vision perfectly, with every detail thoughtfully considered. Tammy, Ellen, and Brian who were our incredible photo/video team, went above and beyond to make us feel at ease and ensure we had a fun, memorable experience. Last but certainly not least - Laura was our coordinator and she was absolutely EPIC. She played such a huge role throughout the process and relieved so much of my stress through multiple meetings and emails. She made sure everything was perfect the day of, kept me calm (which is not easy to do) and was an absolute gem. She is truly one of a kind and the absolute best - I could not have asked for a better coordinator. We are so grateful to the entire team for helping make our special day perfect (and EPIC) in every way. It truly was the dream team and a dream wedding - thank you epic events for everything!”

“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!”
