“From the moment we stepped into the Sanctuary, we immediately fell in love with how stunning the place was and knew that this is where we wanted to host our wedding. Nancy & Shelly really took the time and cared about every little detail that we wanted and helped bring our vision to life. The day of, Shelly and her team were OUTSTANDING, making sure that we were taken care of, on schedule, helped make the room look beautiful and that no detail went astray. Throughout the entirety of the night, we had guests coming up and complimenting how beautiful the space itself was. The transition from the ceremony to the reception, with the subtle "room flip" was so seamless and quick that we didn't even realize that it happened - which was one of the small concerns we had.

“3rd Coast Live was the live music for our wedding at monte bello estate. They delivered an amazing performance. While their communication leading up to the wedding could have been a bit better, they ultimately worked everything out and ensured our day went off without a hitch. The quality of their work was truly outstanding - they were the perfect addition for our cocktail hour and ceremony. One highlight was when they surprised my husband by playing a Lord of the Rings song as his groomsmen walked down the aisle, which was such a thoughtful and personal touch. We had an absolute blast celebrating with 3rd Coast Live, and they were worth every penny. I would highly recommend them to any couple looking for an incredible live music touch to their wedding.”

“We originally contacted Beauty By You because she had gorgeous portfolios and was a budget-friendly option! We loved her during our included engagement session as she had multiple poses planned, listened to my Pinterest inspirations, made us feel comfortable, and found the best “golden hour” lighting as requested even after the rain settled down! She was very integral with our wedding day planning as she helped figure out what time sunset photos would be and when to start the ceremony based on this! On the Wedding day, Her and her second photographer communicated very well together and made us feel like models the entire day! They worked very well with our videographers which could have easily been chaotic! To our surprise, my husband and I received the sneak peeks 12 hours after our reception ended! They were stunning! Recently just received our whole wedding day photos only 2.5 months later and they are exceptional! Truly priceless! Would love to highly recommend Beauty by you for any family or wedding photography!”

Awarded Best of Zola
“If there is one decision you must make for your wedding, you must hire Sholeh as your wedding planner or coordinator. Sholeh is everything that every good planner should be. She is organized, thoughtful, flexible, down-to-earth, detail oriented, solution oriented, and extremely kind. She was recommended to us by our wedding venue and to say we were not disappointed would be the understatement of the century. Initially, we hired Sholeh for half-day coordination services, and planned to have the in-house reception planner handle the remainder of the day. But when the venue coordinator fell through, we immediately called Sholeh in a panic and she said, "Don't worry, consider me your full-day coordinator now." She hardly even charged us a substantial upcharge for planning the entire day. On the day of the wedding, she truly felt like family. She arrived on-time, with her wagon full of supplies, ready and eager to help. She made sure everyone was fed, went out of her way to spend quality time with the mother of the bride and bride's sister, and executed every detail to perfection. She even sewed one of the groom's cousins back into her dress at the reception. Sholeh is a dream come true. We could truly write pages about how wonderful she truly is. Believe us when we say that you must must must hire Sholeh!”

“We absolutely loved having our wedding at Monte Bello Estate! One of my favorite things about the venue was being able to get ready on site and have our entire wedding day unfold in one place. We had our ceremony at the gazebo, which was absolutely beautiful, and our cocktail hour looked stunning. Moving from one space to another throughout the day felt effortless and seamless. They also had golf carts available to transport guests from the parking lot to the ceremony site, which was such a thoughtful touch and made things easier for our guests. One of the biggest things that gave me peace of mind when choosing Monte Bello was knowing that even if it rained, our wedding would still be beautiful. We had a May wedding, so rain was always a very real possibility, but I genuinely never felt overly worried about it. The inside of the venue is gorgeous on its own, and all of the windows still allow you to see the beautiful scenery while bringing in so much natural light. Even more importantly, their backup indoor ceremony space does not feel like a “Plan B.” It is beautiful in its own right and still allows for that grand entrance moment I had always envisioned. Knowing I would be happy with either ceremony option took so much weather-related stress out of the planning process. I was also initially nervous about the food because that was such an important part of the guest experience for us. Attending both the food tasting and Raise the Bar event made me feel even more confident in our venue choice. And somehow, the food was even better on our wedding day than it was at the tasting, if you can believe it! We were so happy with everything. Another one of my favorite things about Monte Bello was their network of vendors. They work with so many amazing vendors and provided recommended vendors from the very beginning. Having vendors who already knew the property and were familiar with the venue helped bring our entire wedding together perfectly and made the planning process so much easier. Communication was amazing as well. I honestly didn't have many questions in the beginning, but naturally, as we got closer to the big day, we had more questions and a few last-minute things come up. The team was always incredibly responsive and answered us quickly, which gave us so much peace of mind during those final weeks. Monte Bello gave us the romantic garden wedding we envisioned while also making the logistics of the day feel incredibly easy. From getting ready on site, to our gazebo ceremony, to cocktail hour and the reception, everything flowed beautifully. Our guests loved the venue, the food was amazing, and our photos turned out gorgeous. We couldn't be happier that we chose Monte Bello Estate for our wedding day and would absolutely choose it again.”
