There was no component of our wedding weekend more complimented than the venue itself. People could not stop remarking about the beauty of Switzer Farm and how lucky they felt to have had the opportunity to visit. Many have said they'd like to get married there next! Gary and Dolores were a joy to work with and we appreciated the extra effort they both took to familiarize us and our vendors with the property. We felt extra, extra grateful to have had the opportunity to stay onsite for our wedding and enjoyed the beautiful accommodations, kitchen, and access to our wedding! The extra special opportunity to spend more time with our families at Switzer will be cherished forever.

My husband and I got married in Mendocino in early August and chose MacCallum House (or Mac House) as our reception location and couldn't have been happier with how it all turned out. We knew we wanted to get married along the Mendocino coast and the most important things for us were being able to throw a memorable party and have incredible food. During our venue search, we were challenged with the logistics of lodging our guests (around 80) at reasonable price points, quiet hours that would cap our party time and figuring out transportation within a comfortable budget that wasn't cumbersome to our group. We were drawn to the Mac House due to it's insanely convenient location (our guests didn't have to use any cars once they arrived and enjoyed the town at their own pace within walking distance) and beautiful rooms at a very affordable rate but we were hook, line, sinker SOLD when we had dinner at the restaurant and tried their food. WOW. We worked really closely with Summer, who was the awesomely vivacious Mac House coordinator and our personal cheerleader as we embarked on planning our wedding within 6 months. We decided to have our ceremony a few minutes away at Cypress Grove (which the Mac House helped us plan) and due to our party size, opted to host the reception in a tent on the Mac House lawn. Our wedding was truly the best day of our lives and our guests could not stop telling us how incredible the food was, how beautiful the tent looked, and most importantly how much FUN they had. I have to give a special shoutout to the entire staff who worked our event. Everyone was so kind, so attentive, and so lovely that it made a real lasting impression on everyone. I had one guest say to me verbatim "you never really notice the service at weddings but I noticed how amazing the service was at yours". We had multiple people tell us that we had the best wedding food they had ever had (we're both in our late 30s so we take that compliment as high praise as most ppl have been to tons of weddings at that point) and our party kept going till midnight before some of our guests spilled over to the local bars to keep going. The only slight bump leading up to the weekend was that it was clear to us that the Mac House was navigating some moving parts with their business this year (dealing with the aftermath of a really wet winter season, ordering new furniture, etc) and it took a while to get answers to certain questions but honestly, at no point was it stressful and it all worked out beyond our expectations. Saya (the GM), Chef Alan, and Summer are all wonderful people and they worked their tails off to give us an incredible weekend that we and our family and friends will never forget. We are huge fans of the Mac House and their entire team and can't wait to go back and visit again.

The Knotty Oak 

5.0

Philo, CA
  • Up to 100 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $15,000

The oldest house in Philo (1888), it was Anderson Valley’s first post office and stagecoach stop that decades later was the Philo Pottery Inn. During the painstaking restoration we did using nearly all salvaged materials, its secrets and history began to resurface. We were constantly discovering little finds, over 200 1880's old glass bottles buried on the grounds to the headline clad 1915 newspaper lined walls in the main house. It’s been part remodel and archeological dig. Now it’s ready to host events & make fresh memories for decades to come. A few years ago we were lucky enough to add 20+ acres of open meadow lands & forest contiguous to TKO for events & glamping and built an amphitheater by Indian Creek in the woods. We can host up to 100 and have have 12 bedrooms in three fab houses, plus glamping tents. There are so many ways to utilize the property and also vintage trailers and wacky Japanese cars to get creative with. Come see for yourself and be part of its evolving history.

Why you'll love this venue

  • Rustic-chic setting
  • Both indoor and outdoor options
  • Multiple event spaces

Venue considerations

  • Does not provide event staff
  • Lighting and sound are not included
  • Not for you if you prefer a more modern aesthetic
Awarded Best of Zola
This venue is simply like no other... from the moment you arrive you know you're somewhere special where you want to get married. The ceremony and reception site were soo cool and we were able to choose from several different parts of the property on site (for the main day and other activities throughout our event with different guests visiting). We actually hosted our close family and friends there in the main house from the 1800s as well as the cool cabin and even some in glamping bell tents on the meadow at the top of the magical creekside redwood amphitheater. There were also some rad cars (we loved the tiny red firetruck, VW buses and retro camper trailers!) & chairs and other things we rented from Mary who was not only accommodating but great to help us with ideas, vendors, what to do before and during our event/stay. We would highly recommend for anyone wanting something unexpected and unique. We looked at other options at wineries and in the redwoods, but found the Knotty Oak had elements of that but with touches that felt unique as we are and special as we wanted our celebration with our loved ones to feel.

The choice of WhisperTree as our wedding venue was the absolute best decision we made in planning our sacred ceremony. We could not have asked for a more ineffably perfect setting—the gorgeous land, the incredible staff, and the rustic chic decor created the perfect atmosphere for the conscious California retreat wedding of our dreams. The land and property is absolutely gorgeous. You have access to a beautiful historic mansion with a beautiful backyard and hot tub, a rustic-yet-upscale barn with glimmering string lights, a charming riverside cottage, a gorgeous yurt where we hosted a soundbath and yoga, absolutely stunning glamping tents, and breathtaking trails. The entire weekend, all our guests kept noting how beautiful the property is, and how carefully and thoughtfully maintained. You can tell love and intention was put into every single piece of furniture, and there are incredible amenities, including rain boots, umbrellas, blankets for chilly nights, and so much more. We felt help, taken care of, and very grateful for the opportunity to host our unforgettable event here. The staff is top notch, and always available to assist you with any needs you may have. Everything is perfectly organized, so it made wedding planning as breezy as possible. We also worked with local farmers to source our food, wine, and flowers, and we could not have asked for better options. Many of our friends expressed that they hoped to get married at WhisperTree too, or to host a retreat, because it truly is the most unforgettable property in Northern California. We cannot recommend it more highly!
