It is the ideal location and setup, and its gorgeous beyond words. Watching the ferry go by, the views of the ocean...its pure magic. The best part about Juniper is the amazing photo opps - the dock, the sandy beach, the beautiful wildflowers growing around the property - make for a perfect backdrop - an all encompassing wedding venue. Katie is a breeze to work with and they are super flexible with all special requests. Can't wait to come back to Juniper Place!

The Barker House by Wedgewood Weddings was a very simple and comfortable venue. I personally hate weddings and all the BS that comes with them so Barker House was perfect for me! They have preferred vendors so a bunch is included depending on what package you buy! They are also extremely competitive with their prices so you don't feel like you are completely getting screwed. With that in mind you do get what you pay for so if you are looking for a high end wedding this is not for you, but if your looking for an overall great process with minimal stress than I would 100% recommend using the Barker House!...one negative I will mention is use an outside vendor for photobooth, theirs is not good.
