From the moment we started planning, the coordinators at Galway Downs by Wedgewood Weddings were responsive and genuinely caring about making our day special. They know the venue inside and out, which meant they could anticipate issues before they happened and solve them on the spot. The setting itself is gorgeous and private, with a romantic atmosphere that made everything feel intimate. Having vendors already lined up through Wedgewood if you want to use them took so much stress out of the planning process and let us actually enjoy getting ready for the wedding instead of constantly hunting for new people. The coordinators handled all the details with such professionalism and attention, and it showed on our wedding day. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and would recommend Galway Downs to anyone looking for a beautiful venue with a team that truly cares.

I really wanted to get married in a garden with Greenery around. This place was the perfect place. We only have the ceremony there and the pictures were exactly what I wanted. Only 2 things I wasn't happy with was that they didn't arrange the chairs the way we had asked (I sent pictures and they said they would). And our other issue was that since we got married on a Sunday morning, there was also a basketball game going on that we had no idea about, so parking was somewhat hard to find. It didn't ruin our day, but could've been perfect.

Let me just start by saying what an amazing day and venue Hawk Ranch is for a wedding. When we were looking for venues, I didn’t want anything over the top — I just wanted something beautiful, natural, and stress-free. The moment we drove through the gates of Hawk Ranch, it felt magical. Then we met Crystal… and don’t even get me started on her! She was beyond amazing from the very beginning. She walked us through the property, explained exactly how the day would flow, and truly made us feel like we were in good hands. We planned our wedding for two years, and Crystal stayed in touch the entire time — checking in, keeping us calm, and making sure every little detail was handled. She coordinated with vendors, managed head counts (which I changed about four times after the due date!), and kept everything running smoothly so we didn’t have to stress. Seeing the venue transform from a blank slate into my dream wedding was unbelievable. The ceremony site was everything I imagined and more, and the reception and cocktail areas were laid out perfectly. Once the sun went down, the twinkle lights made the night absolutely magical. The Hawk Ranch staff, catering team, security, and bar were all incredible. Even when our dogs needed water during the ceremony, someone found a way to make it work using a tray — that’s the kind of care and attention they give. All of our guests couldn’t stop talking about how stunning the venue was — many said it was the most beautiful wedding they’ve ever been to. If I could give Hawk Ranch 10 stars, I absolutely would. This place and the people behind it made our day perfect in every way.

The Secret Garden was the perfect venue for our group of 105 guests in May. It has an intimate feel, but still feels open and welcoming. The flowers were in bloom and the grass was very green. The coordination team did an amazing job accommodating all of our set-up requests and took great care of us on the day of. We are very pleased with everything and loved the preferred caterer and DJ that were part of the all-inclusive package. Overall we found this venue to be one of the more affordable options, especially given you bring in your own alcohol/drinks and can take home what’s leftover. This saved us at least 50/person. The surrounding area and city of Rancho Santa Fe are gorgeous. Parking was easy and all our guests loved the venue.

Heritage Park and Clarke estate are two hidden gem venues I love telling future clients about along with friends and family. Working there as a preferred vendor for nearly 5 years now has been a great experience as a vendor and for my clients as well. Working together with a venue to ensure the couples day is going well without a hitch is very important and let me tell you Leanne and her staff consistently work together and hard to make sure of that. Not only are both venues historic they're also affordable. That is a perfect combination for a venue Especially when people need to accommodate large guests 200-300 guests. Highly recommend both venues I do work more at heritage Park since their guest capacity is 300 but I always look forward to working with Leanne. Always a great experience.

I had the absolute pleasure of getting married at this venue just a month ago, and I can confidently say it’s a hidden gem! Everything came together beautifully. We chose the Elite Package and worked with their in-house florist, Events by Floral Sensations (amazing floral arrangements omg!), DJ from JC Entertainment, and cake vendor, Bo Cakes, while bringing in our own officiant and photographer. Every detail went above and beyond my expectations. I'm still getting compliments on how gorgeous the venue was and how amazing the food tasted! Iveth, our coordinator, was incredible. She made the entire process so smooth and stress-free, which truly says a lot coming from someone with a Type A personality who usually struggles to let go of control (LOL). The venue also provides a wedding planner to help keep everything organized and on track, which made the planning process so much easier for me. The day of coordination went without a hitch and Kyle, our DJ, did such an amazing job with the music for our ceremony and the reception and Iveth was on top of everything! The food was absolutely delicious! Admittedly, we were a little hesitant after sampling it at the extravaganza, where much of it was overcooked, likely due to the small bite-sized portions prepared for the crowd. But don’t let that discourage you. On the actual day, the prime rib was cooked to perfection, the sides were flavorful, and everyone kept raving about the tray-passed appetizers. Will set aside a special platter of appetizers for my husband and me so we wouldn’t miss out while we were taking family portraits during cocktail hour. The drinks were another highlight! Strong, flavorful, and consistently complimented by our guests! At the end of the night, they packaged up our leftover cake, 2 plates of leftovers to go with a bottle of champagne with a thoughtful thank you note. I would do it all over again! I am so glad I came across Wedgewood Weddings, you guys have an incredible team! To the Orchard Team: Iveth, Will, Sara, Anissa, Krystle, Kevin, Oscar, Rileigh, Abby and Marcella, thank you from the bottom of our hearts for making our day so special. We couldn't have done it without you all! And Will, thank you for being so awesome and letting us feed your catfish LOL and the turtles at the end of the night.

Our wedding at Summit House Restaurant was an absolute dream come true. From the very first interaction, the team there was transparent, professional, and clearly knew exactly what they were doing. The natural beauty of the venue lent itself to so many unforgettable moments and photos that we'll cherish forever. The Summit House team, from planning and ceremony coordination with LeeAnn, to the entire service team during cocktail hour and reception, ensured everything was seamless. They made sure we were well-informed and had everything we needed, and we loved that we were able to secure our own vendors while also using a couple from their preferred list. The gorgeous landscaping, accessible location, great food and service, and affordable pricing made Summit House the perfect choice for our special day. We couldn't recommend them more highly and would get married there all over again if we could!
