Awarded Best of Zola
From the moment we first set foot in Mission Hills Country Club and met with our coordinator, Gabi, we knew we had found the perfect venue for our special day. Their communication style was incredibly supportive, collaborative, and flexible, making the planning process a breeze. The quality of their work was top-tier. The venue space is truly so charming, intimate, and timeless. Our winter wedding dream came to life at Mission Hills - the outdoor setting was made to sparkle with the lights they put up on all the trees, and the day flowed without a single hiccup. It was the best day ever, and we are so grateful to Gabi and the entire Mission Hills team for making it all come together seamlessly.
