This past Monday was the best day of my life—I married my best friend of 11 years, my soulmate, at the most perfect venue: Los Willows. This venue is truly what dreams are made of—a private Southern California oasis with an enchanting meadow, a romantic newlywed boat ride across a serene lake with a champagne toast, and a breathtaking reception space complete with a stunning chandelier ceiling. The photos don’t do it justice, but what truly makes Los Willows special is the incredible team behind it. From the moment I had my first conversation with our wedding coordinator, Lisa Moore, I knew we were in the best hands. Lisa isn’t just efficient—she’s passionate. On our big day, she was always five steps ahead, ensuring everything was seamless and stress-free. She provided thoughtful amenities, invaluable advice, and, most importantly, a true sense of care. Lisa wasn’t just a coordinator—she became family. She and her team treated us like royalty, making every moment feel effortless and magical. The entire experience is something I will cherish forever, and there truly aren’t enough words to express my gratitude to Lisa and the Los Willows team for making my fairytale wedding a reality. If you or someone you know is planning a wedding, do yourself a favor and check out Los Willows—but not without asking for Lisa. She is the real magic.

The listing pictures don’t do Secluded Garden Estate justice. It’s absolutely beautiful in person, especially for an afternoon wedding at golden hour. Our guests are still telling us how beautiful the location was several weeks later. Our wedding photos look like they came right out of Lord of the Rings! The venue includes three separate areas for the ceremony, cocktail, and reception, with convenient electrical access, kitchenette, and guest restrooms. The hosts, Emily and Dennis, were incredibly easy to work with and put us at ease right away. They are knowledgeable without being pushy, and professional without making us feel like we were being sold to. Highly recommend if you are looking for a beautiful outdoor venue.

I got married here at the beginning of June and it was the best day of my life and Forgotten Barrel definitely made it an amazing day. When I first came here to tour the place, Alyssa made me feel like a bride and not just another person looking for a venue. She was easy to work with and definitely was one of the many selling points of picking this venue for our wedding. The day itself was flawless and all our guests had a great time here. We also came at a perfect time of the year because all the flowers were blooming and the place looked extra beautiful. I definitely recommend this place you won't regret it!

We loved having our wedding at Canopy Grove by Wedgewood Weddings. The venue was beautiful, open, spacious, and modern - exactly what we envisioned for our special day. Taylor, our venue coordinator, was a dream to work with. Her communication was consistently helpful, responsive, and kind. She truly went above and beyond to understand our vision and make sure every detail was perfect. Taylor worked extensively with us leading up to the wedding, answering every question and accommodating all our requests, no matter how small. On the big day itself, she made sure everything ran smoothly so my husband and I could simply relax and enjoy our time with loved ones. The whole team worked seamlessly together to bring our wedding dreams to life.

Ethereal gardens is a gorgeous venue and my wedding was stunning. That said, there are several things that Ethereal Gardens/Trademark Venues needs to improve on. 1- The contract includes additional costs (service fees, bar, additional guests, decor, etc) It becomes overwhelming and confusing to understand exactly how much your final cost will be. It needs to be better organized. 2- The invoice is the only location where you can see your cost breakdown, and they do not date any changes to the invoice. So one day your total cost is X, the next day it’s Y, and you have no idea what was added to the invoice. There is no record of changes. This is not a best practice for running a business and caused us extra stress. 3- The contract states that you cannot have a coordinator or a wedding planner because Trademark IS the wedding planner. This was frustrating because I did everything that a wedding planner should have done (creating the floor plan and seating chart, coordinating meetings, timeline, selecting/communicating with vendors…). Would have been nice to be able to have a planner to do those things like we were promised. 4- My planner tried to start my ceremony early, almost 20 minutes early! Even though most of my family wasn’t there yet! Luckily I said no and it went on as planned but that shouldn’t have even been suggested. 5- The security guards were VERY rude to guests who showed up late. 6- The venue set up my guest book upside down so the signatures are at the back of the book, welcome table was messy, and my gorgeous seating chart was set against an ugly brown wall so all photos of it are ruined. 7- Two full rows at the front during the ceremony were empty because people didn’t know they could sit there. This ruined certain photos because it’s very empty looking. 8- Getting-ready rooms are available at 11:30am (bride) and 2:30pm (groom) regardless of when your wedding starts. The venue does not accommodate based on your specific wedding timeline- unless you pay 1500 which only gets you an extra hour in the rooms. Wish we would have known that up front. Caused more stress and confusion. 9- A security guard snapped his fingers at one of my guests to tell them to leave when he was just waiting for his girlfriend to get out of the bathroom. And the staff started taking tables apart as our wedding was still going on! This led to one of our guests losing a jacket that was on the back of a chair someone took away. Summary: Wedding was beautiful, food was great, venue was gorgeous. However Ethereal Garden’s processes are messy and very greedy/money focused, and some their staff is rude and made guests uncomfortable.
