Valentine 

5.0

  • Up to 240 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Offer

Valentine is our grandest location, and features a flowing 9,000 square-foot site plan designed for private events, courtyard weddings, receptions, exhibitions, productions and live performances. The venue is fully amenitized, and we provide experienced, professional site management, plus a commercial kitchen for client-selected catering teams. Originally built in the 1920’s in an area that has long served as the city’s seafood market east of Downtown, the building has lived many lives in its century of use; it’s been a hotel, a brothel, a fish and oyster company, and a commercial site for everything from glass blowing to marijuana cultivation. This mysterious history subtly informed our re-invention of the space.

Why you'll love this venue

  • Natural elegance with open spaces
  • Both indoor and outdoor options
  • Provides lighting and sound

Venue considerations

  • Does not allow pets
  • No venue-provided food services
  • Dance floor not included
There are truly not enough words to describe how incredible Marvimon was as a wedding venue. 
We had the wedding of our literal dreams — an all day affair that took place in both Valentine and Grass Room.

 Dana (Event Director) deserves every award there is in the wedding/event category. We opted out of a wedding planner because we were pretty confident in putting it together ourselves but of course there was A LOT to figure out and hurdles faced along the way. But thanks to Dana and Marvimon’s phenomenal team, the end result was truly magical. Between the organization, attention to detail, genuine care, and the list of unbelievable, pre-approved vendors (including a BIPOC, women-owned, and queer specific list which is where we primarily sourced everything) we didn’t realize that we not only got the venue of our dreams but the support it came with was extremely valuable. Not to mention the beautiful furniture, foliage and overall interior aesthetic that was there which removed any need for renting additional pieces. Weddings are exciting but everyone who has planned or is in the middle of planning one knows they are massively stressful. That said, the Marvimon team (ESPECIALLY DANA) didn’t have us worried at all. They were one of the biggest reasons we were at ease and confident things were going to run smoothly which I’m happy to report they did with flying rainbow colors! 100/10 CANNOT recommend enough!

This crew kept everything together for us so all we had to do was show up and get married. A GIANT thank you from this big crazy Texas family!!

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.

Why you'll love this venue

  • Bridal suite on site
  • Allows pets
  • Rustic yet refined style

Venue considerations

  • No venue-provided food services
  • Additional event staff required
  • Not for you if you don't want a rustic vibe
Awarded Best of Zola
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.
