My wife and I were married at 1800 El Pomar on April 1st. So many of our guests told us that this was one of the most beautiful weddings they’d ever been to, and the number one reason was the setting. A few months after we booked the date we were notified that the property was sold and we’d be dealing with new owners. Boy are we happy that Brit and Amber bought this ranch, because they made us feel so comfortable from the moment we met. So many improvements were made in just the few months leading up to our wedding, and they were always approachable and willing to help us with anything we needed. Brit even picked up extra firewood for us last minute and helped our make-up artist get her flat tire fixed on the big day. It’s a spacious property with plenty of parking and is easily accessible for the guests. The bathrooms are clean and modern, the layout makes perfect sense, and great pictures are super easy with a beautiful backdrop in any direction. We had 10 of us comfortably stay in the farmhouse, where we also hosted a rehearsal dinner for about 30 guests. Everything went smoothly and I can’t recommend using this property enough for a wedding or any event. We are so grateful to Brit and Amber, we could not have dreamed of getting married in a more magical place.

Awarded Best of Zola
The venue was absolutely breathtaking with beautiful backdrops for photos. I had my baby shower here and it was the perfect spot to have it. The owners and staff were very responsive and accommodating. They usually do weddings here but they were willing to work with us to have a baby shower here and it turned out so beautiful! The venue was very clean and they even allowed us to use the furniture and antique items they had on site. My family stayed at their on site Airbnb and they loved it. Such a clean and comfortable stay for them! Thank you so much for allowing us to host our baby shower here! I would recommend to anyone looking for a venue for any event.
