“We cannot recommend Old Stonegate Farms enough! Melissa worked with us over the course of two years leading up to our wedding, and we truly could not have asked for a better experience. Her and her husband, Doug, were so incredibly kind, welcoming, and accommodating throughout the entire process. We booked a Friday wedding, which allowed us to unload our decor into the on-site farmhouse the day before, and that extra time made such a difference! Melissa went above and beyond, meeting us at the venue FIVE times in the two years leading up to our wedding so we could measure tables, look through their decor closet (which they generously allow couples to use for FREE!), and brainstorm all the different ideas and possibilities I was considering. As a bride who put so much thought into every little detail, having someone so patient and willing to help bring my vision to life meant the world to me! The farmhouse was absolutely perfect for getting ready on the morning of our wedding, and both the ceremony and reception spaces were everything we could have hoped for. The entire day was beautiful, and we have heard nothing but glowing reviews from our guests about the venue and how wonderful everything was! Melissa and Doug, thank you from the bottom of our hearts for all the time, kindness, and care you put into making our wedding so special. You made the entire experience feel personal, and we are so grateful we chose Old Stonegate Farms for one of the most important days of our lives. If you’re considering this venue for your wedding, DO IT! You will be in such good hands. ️”

“Beautiful space and great owners! Sarah was so helpful to work with and very genuine. Of all the venues we toured and owners we spoke with, Sarah stood out for understanding what her business is about and what it means for couples. She was so easy to work with and made the whole process smooth. The chalkboards were so fun to decorate and really added to our decorations. The space was well cared for and maintained. The bell tower was a great spot to take pictures, but brace yourself for a climb! We especially appreciated the Pay it Forward decoration closet. There were so many decoration options and themes to choose from! It was a real help for us to have on hand so we could limit how many decorations we purchased/rented. We loved getting married here and would recommend it to anyone!”

We rented the loft to get ready the morning of, and it was ideal—plenty of mirrors, seating, and space for the whole wedding party.

“We enjoyed everything about our experience with Port 393. From the very beginning when the owners were so welcoming during our tour to the very end. We especially loved having meetings every month starting 6 months before the wedding. That was super helpful with planning. I would recommend the VIP or VIP package which include those meetings and a coordinator (and it’s very fairly priced). We went in not wanting to bring in our own decor so it was super helpful to be able to rent from the Charm Decor house. The decor turned out beautiful. We also loved not having to find our own bartending service since Port 393 provides it. The bartenders were great and there was never a long line, even with 170 guests. We were able to choose from 12 caterers which was also great because some venues really limit the amount of caterers you can choose from. The Cove House (getting ready house) was a big reason we chose this venue. It included a shared kitchen for groom’s party and bride’s party then separate areas for girls getting ready and guys getting ready. The girls’ getting ready area is SO spacious and has 6 salon spots. And lastly and most important, our coordinator, Nature, was amazing. We aren’t the best planners so it was very helpful having 6 meetings with her leading up to the wedding. And the day of, she was there and on top of everything from before 9am to after midnight. We did not have to worry about the timeline running smoothly or any of the decor being set up. She took care of anything we needed. Overall, it was a wonderful experience and we can’t think of any negatives. 10/10 would recommend”

“This venue was absolutely everything I’ve ever dreamed of and more! It’s beautiful and had plenty of space for everything we wanted. We had a mobile bar, wood fired pizza oven, and an ice cream stand with plenty of room. We had many places to take photos and have a first look with my husband and dad. We also had a few outdoor games! The owners helped us out all day long as well and they were too kind. We’re so blessed. Thank you for making my dreams come true.”

“I got married on May 30, 2026 and it was a wonderful day! The Ravines is a beautiful place to get married. I worked with Tracy and she was really punctual and helpful for any questions I had (I had a lot!). Jordan (I am pretty sure that was his name) was there the day of and he was awesome. He really helped with getting things set up and helping tackle any issues that popped up, which thankfully was very little. My wedding was about 60 people and it was the perfect size in my opinion. I couldn’t have asked for a better location for my wedding!”

From the first conversation through our big day, their team responded quickly and had answers ready whenever we needed them. The venue itself is gorgeous and well-maintained with a timeless feel, and it's surprisingly spacious—we had 200 guests and everyone had plenty of room to move around comfortably. The food was outstanding; we went with the Parmesan chicken and Mahi mahi, and our guests couldn't stop talking about it all. One tip for future couples: make sure you have at least 2 bar services running to keep the lines moving and your guests happy. Throughout the entire planning process and on our wedding day, there was always someone available to help us with any detail we needed. We'd absolutely recommend Stonewater to any couple looking for a beautiful, reliable venue. Loved the service, kindness, and less stressed of our big day! Thank you RedWater.”

“I would highly recommend Thousand Oaks for future brides. The coordinators are very organized and attentive and the packages are clear in their descriptions. However, being part of a larger entity, there is no wiggle room for negotiation. For example, we wanted to substitute Riesling instead of moscato. We couldn’t make that switch, but they did offer the Riesling at a consumption rate. That is our only complaint. The food, the cleanliness and appearance of the venue, and the staff were all excellent.”
