When my fiancé and I were looking for a venue for our wedding, we had a certain budget in mind that we didn't want to break and the price here was very reasonable for such a beautiful and unique venue. We also wanted a place that could hold a big wedding party in a fun town where all of the wedding party could explore before and after the event. So The Hanford Garden checked all of the boxes for us. Between the unique layout of the property and the lush greenery and flowers scattered all throughout, I pretty much knew right away it was going to be our venue when I first laid eyes upon it. We had the best time at our wedding and Sabrina (The owner) was very helpful and attentive with all of our needs before the big day, so we're very thankful for that. She even helped when one of my Groomsmen left his shoes at the venue by shipping them back to us haha All in all, its an amazing venue and the location is so nice out in Sutter Creek where you and your friends and family will have a great time during all of the festivities. Everything is within walking distance from hotels/venue/bars which is also a huge plus.

MSR was by far our dream venue. Not only are the views and property absolutely stunning, but Scena and Susanne were incredible to work with. Wedding planning is hard and stressful, there’s always something you didn’t think of, but, believe me, Scena already has and has already worked it out for you. A God send Our family and us had so much fun staying here as well. We loved being able to stay for 4 days, wind down with our close family after the wedding, and relive the moments together. It truly makes the weekend more special when you don’t have to pack up and get out the very next day. I could go on and on about how wonderful our weekend was. I highly recommend MSR and working with Scena and Susanne. It’s worth the trust me!
