I hosted my engagement party with Tuscan Gardens and it was perfect! The venue is very unique and has a lot of space to let you design the layout the way you want. My fiancé and I really loved working with Liz because she was so helpful throughout the planning process. We highly recommend!

I am so excited to see how Reinstein Ranch transforms with TLC’s management. The team at TLC are fantastic- so warm, thoughtful, and well coordinated. The Ranch itself is rustic, expansive, and such a convenient little oasis. I booked the Ranch as TLC was starting to get involved- and saw so many improvements just over the course of my engagement. My wedding was magical and better than I could have imagined- and I have TLC and the ranch to thank!

We were looking for a beautiful low key venue for our wedding. The Lighthouse was by far even better than we imagined! We primarily worked with Maggie who was fantastic! She was very realistic when it came to helping us stay within our budget and gave us some excellent vendor recommendations accordingly. We had a few meetings with her along the way and she listened to what we wanted and helped us stay on task getting everything sorted out. She was super flexible and accommodating with us on the day of the wedding. Maggie and Alma were both there the day of the wedding and they were both busy making sure everything was running smoothly! In addition to how wonderful they are, this venue is the most beautiful! We used the outside and inside area. We heard from several of our guests that it was the most beautiful venue (and wedding ;) ) they had attended! We have the absolute best memories from this day and wouldn’t change a thing!

We rented Golden Hill Ranch for an intimate wedding celebration. The property is stunning, and the pool is so much fun for hanging out during the day. If you’re hosting friends or family from out of town, this is a great option as you can use the property for the pool during the daytime and then use lawn for the evening events. The staff were great and we were so happy with how everything turned out!
