The 1880 Union Hotel is a truly exceptional wedding venue. Their communication style is personable, tailored, and efficient - they make you feel welcomed and valued throughout the entire process. The quality of their work and the value they provide is simply exquisite. They have a unique and beautiful approach, always going above and beyond to customize the experience for each couple. For example, they accommodated our request to have the rental load-in at 8am the day before, even though it was outside their normal schedule. There were also no unexpected fees, and the chef even came in early to monitor the process. This team clearly prioritizes ease and reducing stress for the couple, which is not the case everywhere. In another case, when the linens weren't picked up from the rental company and I, as the planner, was already home from the wedding, being days later -- they handled before I even know, but they took these large linen duffel bags into UPS without hesitation. The team as a whole understands hospitality and how important it is to keep things calm, cool, and collected - they've mastered that. Additionally, the customization of the menu was fantastic. During our tasting, we had one-on-one time with the chef to discuss our preferences, dislikes, and dream wishes for the cuisine - and they made it all happen seamlessly. We highly recommend the 1880 Union Hotel for their personable service, exquisite quality, and commitment to making your wedding day truly special.

Everyone at Live Oak made it easy for us to achieve the wedding setup we envisioned. From showing us photos of the space with others' decor, to sending us links with suggestions, coming to the venue to help us plan at times that worked for us, working with us to create a checklist and timeline, and showing up early/ staying late to clean up, we felt that the people at Live Oak really wanted to help us achieve the wedding that worked for us. On the day of the wedding, it was nice to have the Cottage as a room to prep and primp, and I was able to see the arriving guests while staying unseen. We also stored flowers in the kitchen fridge, which helped keep them fresh. Overall, we were consulted as to our wishes prior to the event, then during the actual wedding, things that needed to be done "behind the scenes" were taken care of, which left us able to focus on our guests and each other.

We got married at Santa Barbara Courthouse right across the street and celebrated our reception at the Santa Barbara Courthouse Distillery — and it was absolutely perfect. When we were first searching for a venue, the first person we met was Andrew. He took the time to show us the space, listen to our vision, and truly understand not just what we wanted, but why we wanted it. From that very first meeting, he gave us the impression that this team puts the customer first — and that if something could be done, they would find a way to make it happen. That turned out to be completely true. From there, Melody and the rest of the team were communicative, quick, and direct, answering every question we had. The venue itself is spacious and stunning, with so much room to make the space entirely your own. We rented out all three spaces, which gave us the room to really spread out and create something special. One of our biggest selling points was that food, bartenders, tables, and chairs, etc were all included — we didn’t want to deal with coordinating a dozen third parties just to have the basics covered, and the fact that it was all taken care of in one place was such a relief. They also offer plenty of add-ons to customize your package, and they were completely flexible with us bringing in our own photobooth and DJ — making it easy to personalize every aspect of the day. The food was absolutely delicious (WE LOVE MIZZAs) and the team was incredibly accommodating throughout the entire planning process. If we had a specific vision for something, they found a way to make it happen — no question too big, no detail too small. Our setup was elaborate and detail heavy, with our family and friends bringing our vision to life, and Andrew and the staff jumped right in to help without hesitation. They made what could have been a stressful process feel seamless and fun. On the day itself, Melody, Andrew, and the whole team made everything feel effortless and magical. Everything went completely smoothly — we had absolutely no issues from start to finish, which is truly the greatest gift on your wedding day. They served dinner, kept the drinks flowing, and made sure we felt taken care of every single moment. Andrew especially went above and beyond — my husband is obsessed with the bruschetta, and Andrew made sure a plate was saved and ready for him the moment we arrived. It’s those little personal touches that set this team apart. So many thoughtful details made our day unforgettable: early access the day before to set up, staff coordinating with the restaurant next door to get our cake, letting me use the upstairs space to get into my dress before heading to the courthouse, preserving my flowers so I could enjoy them the next day, and giving us the grace to clean up the following morning without ever feeling rushed. If you’re looking for a venue where the team genuinely cares and goes above and beyond for your big day, look no further. We are so, so grateful and would recommend the Santa Barbara Courthouse Distillery to any couple looking for an incredible space to celebrate.

We recently had the most magical wedding at The Genevieve in Santa Ynez, and we couldn't be happier with our choice! From the moment we stepped onto the property, we knew this was where we wanted to celebrate our special day. Our ceremony took place in the enchanting garden, surrounded by lush greenery and the sweet scent of flowers. The setting was absolutely idyllic, and our guests were in awe of the beauty that surrounded us. Pam Roberts was an absolute dream to work with. Her kindness and warmth made the entire planning process seamless, and her flexibility ensured that every detail was perfect from beginning to end. Pam's genuine soul truly shines through, and we couldn't imagine anyone better to oversee our dream venue. Following the ceremony, we enjoyed a delightful happy hour on the Lawn, where our guests mingled and enjoyed delicious hors d'oeuvres. The atmosphere was lively and joyful, setting the tone for the rest of the evening. For dinner, we moved to the private and intimate Coach Room, where the ambiance was cozy and romantic. The venue's character added a unique touch to our celebration, making it truly unforgettable. And let's talk about the food - it was absolutely divine! Nothing like any wedding meal we've had before. The culinary team at The Genevieve surpassed expectations. Not only is The Genevieve a fabulous and unique venue, but the entire experience was elevated by the exceptional service and attention to detail provided by the staff. From the premium beverage service to the spacious lawn with firepits, every aspect of our wedding was flawlessly executed. We also opted for a wedding experience, turning The Genevieve into our own private paradise for the weekend. The luxurious accommodations and amenities provided the perfect backdrop for pre-wedding pampering and post-reception relaxation. Overall, our wedding at The Genevieve exceeded all of our expectations. If you're looking for a wedding location on the Central Coast that combines luxury, sophistication, and garden glam, look no further than The Genevieve. We can't recommend it highly enough!

The Ojai Retreat & Inn was everything we could have asked for for our wedding in early November!! We rented the whole property for our wedding party and the weekend felt like a dream oasis! Before the wedding, we were able to immerse ourselves in the serenity of the Ojai Retreat by taking a stroll on the nature path. We also enjoyed nearby restaurants (Bonnie Lu's for breakfast and Ca'Marco for our Rehearsal Dinner) that were a short car ride away. We used the living room area and the upstairs library for getting ready spaces and they were well air-conditioned and provided more than enough space for all of us- without the groom seeing the bride, of course. Then during our ceremony and reception, the beauty of the landscape and views made for marvelous photos and memories! It was truly magical and felt like an enchanted fairytale! On top of the beauty of the property, everyone who works at the Ojai Retreat & Inn is so kind and helpful! A special thank you to Dana and Lia for your help and to all the workers who helped move lawn furniture before our rentals needed to unload. They were so flexible with us and worked with us on our many random questions and requests. We can't wait to come back to the Ojai Retreat & Inn for our anniversaries!!

I attended a rehearsal dinner here and wow! The views are absolutely amazing. The dinner was around sunset, so we got to watch the sun set over the ocean and then enjoy the beautiful lights at night too. The food was delicious (they did a cocktail-style party) and the bar area is really cool. A super unique venue!
