“Our big day could not have gone better, and we owe so much of that to the incredible team at Crystal Springs! From the very beginning, Cameron was instrumental in helping us secure an amazing deal and a comprehensive package that offered incredible value. Nikki provided expert guidance during our initial planning meeting, and Lindsay was a total rockstar, she was with us every step of the way, from the early planning stages to being our seamless Day-of Coordinator. We also want to give a special shout-out to Megan, who was in training on our wedding day but handled everything with such grace and care that you’d never have known she was still learning the ropes! The entire team ensured that every detail of our vision made sense and offered constant reassurance whenever we had questions or "wedding jitters" during the process. One of the biggest highlights was their quick thinking when our family arrived at the venue earlier than expected; they jumped in immediately with a creative solution to make sure the bride wasn't seen before our first-look photos! We also truly appreciated their flexibility, as they allowed us to bring in boba as a secondary sweet treat without any additional charges. Our guests loved it, and it was such a meaningful personal touch to have included. We are so grateful to the Crystal Springs team for making our wedding day so joyful and stress-free!”

“We stayed from Friday - Sunday, and it was the wedding of our dreams! On friday, we were able to set up the barn ahead of time and have our rehearsal dinner in the backyard. My bridesmaids stayed the night in the house, making the morning of so fun and stress free. It was DIY, and we were given the freedom to decorate and do whatever we wanted, bringing all of our Pinterest boards to life. We had the ceremony with the vineyards in the background, cocktail hour was behind the house and we moved inside of the barn for the rest of the night.

“From the moment we started planning with Amber at Fairview Laguna Seca, we knew we had made the right choice. She listened to our vision and handled all the details so we could actually enjoy the planning process instead of stressing about it. The venue itself is stunning with large windows with views of the hills and bright, modern spaces both indoors and outdoors. It gave us plenty of room for guests to spread out on the patio, golf green, and throughout the clubhouse. The staff, especially Michael, were attentive and professional all evening, and the food was delicious. We threw a lot of ideas at them—live music, passed appetizers, party package modifications, display tables for photos, and a photo video showing—and they made it all happen without hesitation. Two months later, our guests are still talking about how magical the day was, and we couldn't have asked for a better team to bring our wedding reception to life.”

“We hosted our October 2023 Wedding Reception at The Tech Interactive and I highly recommend it to anybody who is looking for a unique (and literally interactive) venue. It was so much fun and our guests had a great time!  We rented the entire lower level and they kept the galleries and exhibits open so our guests could play with them throughout the night! They were a hit during cocktail hour as well as for taking breaks from the dance floor (although we still always had plenty of people on the dance floor!)  Our event was mostly adults with a handful of younger relatives, and everyone had a great time. The exhibits at The Tech Interactive are perfect for quick and fun interactions no matter how interested (or not interested) any individual guest was in science/technology. Our engineer friends had a great time with the Cyber Detectives activities, while even our least technically-inclined guests enjoyed playing around with things like the Jet Pack Chair and Solve For Earth. This was truly best of both worlds, as we didn't have to give up any of the "traditional" wedding elements to make room for the fun of the exhibits - our tables and decorations were set up beautifully, we still had appetizers and an open bar, and like I mentioned above, there were still always plenty of people on the dance floor! We actually didn't even need to decorate as much as we might have with a more "traditional" venue either, as the existing colors, lighting, and layout of The Tech make for a strong baseline to build from. Our primary contact was Lolita and she was extremely helpful and pleasant to work with. She was there with us every step of the way, from our initial tour to our reception itself. She made sure to consider exactly what we were looking for to make our wedding special and was extremely organized and great and communicating with us as well as our other vendors. She created a great layout based on our table count, dance floor size, and the space the caterer needed, and she and her team went above and beyond and worked with our caterer and coordinator to help set everything up between the public close time and the start of our event so that everything was perfect when our guests got there. They even let us customize the exterior lighting color of the building during our event. The physical location of The Tech Interactive is fantastic as well - right in downtown San Jose within walking distance of tons of hotels and two parking garages where The Tech validates. The city closed off Market Street right in front of The Tech relatively last minute for a public city event, but Lolita was on top of it and worked with us and our shuttle company to arrange for pickup and a smooth experience for our guests. In summary: If you're looking to do something unique with your wedding or event, I can't recommend The Tech Interactive enough. Lolita was fantastic to work with and our guests couldn't stop saying how it was one of the most fun weddings they had ever been to.”

“We Got married at Boulder Ridge two weeks ago and everything was perfect!! The venue itself is gorgeous and has a good amount of space to have a ceremony and reception without feeling too crowded, plus the way it lights up at night is so magical!! The planning and coordination team was communicative during the entire wedding planning process, they were very flexible with their check-in meetings, and during each check-in they would go through the entirety of what we've planned so far and would bullet point TBDs after each meeting. It was a very stress-free planning experience for me, I never felt overwhelmed with my wedding planning. For the wedding day itself, everything went smoothly. Upon arrival to the venue, our coordinator Emily was on her A-game, she fulfilled any requests I had before walking down the aisle (she provided fruit and helped me to the bathroom without the groom seeing me), she helped with fluffing my train and bustling it for the reception, she gave us our specialty drinks after walking down the aisle and stayed close by during the reception in case we needed something. The only minor hiccup we had was the Photo Booth breaking down, but Brianna was right there problem solving to get it to work again. Diego made really good drinks and brought great energy to the bar area. His margaritas are 10000000/10. Overall, I'm really happy that we decided on Boulder Ridge. I would highly recommend them for any brides looking for destination wedding venues and want to skip the hassle of trying to research vendors on their own - Wedgewood has their own internal team and preferred vendors that work well together.”
