    Tess and the rest of the China Peak crew did an exceptional job at our wedding. On the day of my wedding, we realized the rental company forgot to deliver the chargers for the table settings. Tess sent one of her employees all the way to Fresno and back to get them and made it all seem like it was no big deal. Also, I tend to be a little camera shy and Tess did a great job of making me feel comfortable and directing us in a way to get great photos!

    Our experience with China Peak Mountain Resort was very disappointing. Their communication via email was slow and unhelpful. The quality of their work and overall value was very poor. They didn't contribute anything positive to our special day. We had a good tasting before the wedding, but the actual food served at the event was horrible and most of our guests didn't eat it. They over promised and under delivered on every aspect. I would not recommend this venue to any future couples.

    China Peak is a remote venue, so there are some complications that come with that, but anyone that is looking for incredible natural beauty at an affordable price should consider getting married there! We were able to have a wedding that everyone loved within our budget. The staff is friendly and while the accommodations are a little more on the rustic side, it is an incredible option for an outdoorsy couple. We got so many compliments on how beautiful it was, the food is excellent for the price, and being able to stay at the venue made it easy for people to hang out late and really enjoy the day. I would recommend it to a friend!
