We absolutely loved having our wedding at The Pines Resort! Their communication style was clear, quick, and left lots of room for us to get creative in the planning process. The venue itself is gorgeous and all-inclusive, with beautiful minimalist decor that created the perfect backdrop without added stress. Brittany, their phenomenal on-site wedding planner, made everything so easy by connecting us with vendors they frequently work with who understand the venue and their approach. We felt empowered to get creative with alternatives when we wanted to make the day our own. With the venue and planning taken care of, we could focus on each other and our love. The Pines Resort receives 100/100 stars from us and we cannot recommend them highly enough for your special day!

Redwood Ranch in Three Rivers 

5.0

Three Rivers, CA
  • Up to 250 guests
  • Select services
  • Outdoor
  • Starts at $4,000

Redwood Ranch is a rustic wedding venue located at the edge of the South Fork of the Kaweah River in Three Rivers, California. (We're about halfway between Los Angeles and San Francisco.) Our very private and secluded 270-acre ranch at the foothills of Sequoia National Park features numerous outdoor ceremony and reception sites nestled in the woods or overlooking the river (with 1800 feet of private river frontage) and exclusive use of Redwood Ranch to enable you the flexibility to create a truly special event that matches your unique vision. This is a working ranch with cattle, donkeys, peacocks, and chickens. We do have an occasional deer wandering through, as well as foxes, raccoons and many birds and butterflies. We do not offer catering but have a long list of local vendors we’d be happy to provide you with - you are welcome to select all your own vendors.

We are not ballroom wedding people, so we were looking into National Park weddings and found some information on Redwood Ranch. It was much easier then going through the permit process for NPS and finding a separate reception site. It is also close enough to visit Sequoia and Kings Canyon while you are there. 2023 was especially rainy, which meant the river was really flowing and the lupins were absolutely gorgeous. This venue does not include any vendors such as catering, but that worked well for us as we could customize things exactly what we wanted. It is a bit of a narrow access road, so I recommend hiring shuttles for you guests especially if you plan to serve alcohol.

Paicines Ranch 

5.0

Paicines, CA
  • Up to 250 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $7,800

With its panoramic views, sweeping lawns, and historic buildings, the Paicines Ranch is the perfect location to begin your happily ever after! The ranch has a peaceful and magical feel that helps our couples feel relaxed and really take in the moments of their special day! With our 27 rooms in the event center, you can spend the whole weekend with family and friends and truly make your wedding a weekend to remember!

I got married here recently and it was beautiful! It is very convenient having rooms on site to accomodate so many guests. You have to cater through the venue but their food is amazing. They use their own grass fed meats and were great about what food and drinks we wanted. While the venue does come with a few things like tables and chairs, you do have to pay to rent other items from them and a lot of the decoration will be DIY, but this can be a good thing if you want to personalize a lot of things! Owners are not too strict about things and are flexible. This can go both ways though - sometimes the planning was a bit difficult due to lack of communication with the venue. It would take a while to get answers, or they would forget some things I told them. Definitely recommend getting a day of planner to help since this is a large venue with lots of DIY and family around usually. Other than that though, everything turned out beautiful and guests were very happy with the views and rooms. They are reasonably priced and we were able to stay up late too! Perfect day :)

The Holly Farm 

5.0

Carmel-by-the-sea, CA
  • Up to 250 guests
  • Select services
  • Outdoor
  • Starts at $57,000

This is a special place. The moment you walk through the welcoming rustic gate and past a quintessential redwood barn, you enter a quiet, peaceful world of bird-song, the splash of water falling, tropical plantings of every conceivable varietal, winding paths, and cottages tucked away among exotic palms, banana, and ancient cypress trees. Abundant oak trees and giant prickly-pear cacti stand sentinel. Wooden benches and comfortably-cushioned, bent willow chairs in secluded, shady oases offer places to sit, to rest and to absorb the quiet. This spectacular private estate is a sanctuary, nestled along the Santa Lucia Mountain Range. Family-owned and operated, this expansive Carmel jungle hideaway was created exclusively for destination weddings or for those looking for a relaxing, retreat-style experience. Your closest family and friends gather to spend 2-5 nights together at your own private oasis, a hidden Shangri-la- your home base for days of celebration of love. All are welcome.

My husband and I got married at Holly Farm in June 2024. We found the venue in October which gave us about 9 months to plan our wedding. Holly Farm made it relatively simple to piece together all the vendors due to their incredible and long lasting relationships. And while wedding planning is still stressful, what I didn't expect and was so very grateful for was feeling like I could hand everything over to them upon arrival for the wedding weekend and really feel like everything was in good hands (I did not have a wedding planner). I knew the venue was going to be beautiful but I did not expect to feel so at ease the entire weekend. I had the BEST time at my own wedding because the Holly Farm staff went above and beyond to take care of everything we could possibly need on our behalf. There was nothing they couldn't assist with. It was the most perfect weekend, and I could not recommend this venue more!

Convict Lake Resort 

5.0

Mammoth Lakes, CA
  • Up to 185 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $7,500

Convict Lake Resort is a lakeshore wedding venue located in Mammoth Lakes, California. Situated below the peak of Mount Morrison, this venue hosts romantic weddings with scenic views of the 170-acre crystal-clear lake surrounded by tall aspens. Couples can enjoy the breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains, wildflowers, and fall colors as a backdrop for their wedding ceremony. Convict Lake Resort has coordinated more than 500 weddings over the past 20 years.

Convict Lake Resort is a best in class wedding experience. When you are at Convict Lake it's like the world stops, the resort is removed and inclusive. Convict Lake is intimate with stunning mountain views and the most epic lake. There are tons of recreation opportunities for you and your guests on site and there is FUN to be had in the hills. The food is wonderful (the Mahi is my fav). All this and in the end it's the service that sets Convict Lake above and beyond. They are experienced professionals and they are an inspiration in the local wedding community. They run the most consistent timelines I've ever experienced. You won't lose 15 minutes here and 15 minutes there because of poor time management. They run events smooth, seemingly effortless (that's what pros do they work hard to make it seem effortless) , their events are fun and there is always a touch of elegance. I adore my working relationship with Convict Lake. I adore the couples and clients I've been able to work with at this most amazing venue. Book Convict Lake, book a few cabins and stay on site. Convict Lake inspires love and joy and the magic of the mountains.

The Village, Big Sur was an absolute dream to work with, creating our "Night Before" celebration. I could not be happier with our evening and dinner! The staff was amazing both planning and executing our event which was held on the lawn and in "the barn", a truly gorgeous, serene setting. Attention to detail was evident, personal and thoughtful. The evening began with a "welcome" signature cocktail, champagne, and a beautiful canape' station. Dinner followed with a land and sea inspired menu. Absolute perfection! Thank you Catherine, Chef Tim, and Matt for making our special night unforgettable.

If you are looking for a Camp wedding this place is true Magic. You have to be willing to plan, take initiative and DIY leading up the day of but it will be worth it.

The camp staff made the fire for us and supplied s'more making materials, they even helped set up AV equipment we used for the show. On Saturday we had an earlier ceremony at 1pm so we as the couple could participate in the fun. We did everything from Axe throwing, archery and even some arts and crafts all organized by the Camp Campbell staff. The staff was so helpful throughout Saturday making the day stress free and perfect. On Sunday we had a soccer game on the back lawn followed by brunch in the lodge. It was a weekend to remember for us and our Guests. All of our guests who stayed in the cabins commented on how much they enjoyed the overall experience from the cabins, the food to the atmosphere.
