Nestled in the heart of Sutter Creek, our venue is just steps from one of California’s most charming small towns. Main Street is lined with wine tasting rooms, cozy restaurants, local bars, and welcoming shops — all walkable and full of character. Think Stars Hollow or a Hallmark movie, where the pace is slower, the people are friendly, and the town feels like home. With boutique hotels and inns within walking distance, your guests can settle in and fully enjoy the weekend — no shuttles or long drives required. Located in Amador County’s wine country, the region offers Napa-like roads & wineries without the crowds — making it the perfect backdrop for a relaxed and unforgettable celebration.

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.

The event space itself is absolutely stunning, with marble floors, 3-story vaulted ceilings, and beautiful large windows that create a truly breathtaking atmosphere. Everything was well-maintained, and the team took care of all the details so we could fully enjoy our special day.

Estate Farms is a very beautiful venue. You can do so much with it. I hosted my wedding here in October of 2025 and loved it! Eugene, the owner, is very communicative and was great to work with. Any time I had a question, he would text back right away. Really great guy. The only complaint I have is that the day of my wedding, all the bathrooms broke down and had to direct people to the farmhouse. We let the owner know, he was on the premises, but unfortunately, nothing was done. It was disappointing, but I am very happy with the overall experience. Would book again.
