Set against a breathtaking backdrop of vibrant garden landscapes, wedding couples take center stage to celebrate their special day. Picture exchanging vows in a stunning ceremony surrounded by thousands of roses, savoring cocktails and conversations as you stroll along tree-lined garden paths, and dancing the night away in a spacious hilltop reception hall with panoramic views of acres of natural beauty.

We got married on August 23rd at The Gardens at Heather Farm, and we loved our experience. The gardens were stunning, and Jenna (the event coordinator) was responsive and so helpful throughout the whole process. We loved being able to have an outdoor ceremony and mingling hour, and then an inside reception in the Camellia Room. We got many compliments on the venue from our guests. I also highly recommend Elisas Catering (we served street tacos) and rg Media (https://rgmedia-llc.com/contact) for photography/videography. I love the natural vibes of the Gardens that allow you to do minimal decorating but still create a beautiful wedding.

Montperi Catering + Events 

5.0

Walnut Creek, CA
  • Caterer
  • Starts at $6,000

Welcome. Montperi Catering and Events (MPCE) is a full-service company offering catering, event planning, event production and management, specialty VIP services, and unique hospitality experiences. MPCE specializes in corporate, wedding, and private functions, offering reception food and beverage service, buffet service, seated meals, and more. Our general menu is gourmet California cuisine with a Mediterranean influence (clean meat, seafood, spices, healthy and flavorful eating). We love to customize menus for our guests, and can create a variety of regional flavors and styles!

I cannot recommend Montperi Catering enough; they did an absolutely phenomenal job for my wedding this past May. My prior venue had closed (without bothering to tell me), and with less than two months before the big day, I was scrambling to figure out how to plan a backyard wedding during COVID. I had no idea where to start, but then my friend recommended Montperi, assuring me that Chef Lamont's cooking was fantastic. I reached out that day, and was able to connect with Amanda. Amanda was wonderful to work with. She was able to accommodate our work schedules to do a preliminary phone call, and she immediately made us feel so comfortable about working with Montperi to plan a safe wedding. During our socially-distanced walkthrough, she came up with creative solutions for organizing the wedding, figuring out where to place tables, how to staff the event, and how many rentals we would need. Between the walkthrough and the wedding day, she was super communicative, getting back to us quickly whenever we had questions or changes that needed to be made. A few days before the wedding, we had another telephone call to go over the day-of timeline, and she was able to offer a lot of advice and information about how things would go. She would ask us what we planned and immediately offered to help with those things, taking a huge burden off our shoulders. On the day of, everything went perfectly. Amanda and the rest of the Montperi team kept things flowing so smoothly that I honestly felt like I was neglecting them because I didn't have to tell them anything. I was able to spend all of my time talking to family and friends, and never had to worry about timing or making sure things happened as needed because Montperi took care of everything. Everything was set up on schedule, the backyard was flipped from being a ceremony space to a dining space, and my friend was absolutely right - the food was delicious. We didn't do a tasting, so my first taste of the food was of the honey miso glazed salmon. I actually prefer raw salmon to cooked salmon because cooked salmon always felt dry to me. But as soon as I took my first bite of this salmon, I just stared at my husband and went "wow" at how tasty and tender it was. I also stole some tri tip from my sister, and it was so perfectly spiced and cooked. I often hear about people not remembering or being able to enjoy their wedding, but that was never a risk for me. Montperi took care of so much that day, all the way to cleaning up and moving the rentals out of the way. Everything that needed to be done got done without me needing to check on things (and that is hard for me because I can be a compulsive control freak), and I really was just able to enjoy myself. At this point, I am honestly glad that my prior venue shut down because this wedding was everything we could have wanted; we were so happy throughout. I cannot think of any way it could have been better, and it would not have happened without Montperi. My only regret was that I didn't take the time to try all of the appetizers; now I have to listen to my family and friends tell me how delicious they were, without knowing for myself! Needless to say, if I ever have to plan another big event, I know exactly who I will be contacting first.

Shadelands Ranch Museum 

5.0

Walnut Creek, CA
  • Venue
  • Up to 250 guests
  • Raw space
  • Outdoor
  • Starts at $1,500

The beautifully maintained landscaping surrounds the Shadelands Ranch house, the picturesque rose-bush-surrounded gazebo provide the perfect setting for any outdoor social event — from a wedding to a family reunion, from a corporate retreat to a community get-together. Large lawn area beneath the trees that will seat 250-300 guests A classic 19th-Century gazebo that is versatile. Large paver patio perfect for dancing Victorian-style wrap-around porch Grove area shaded by large oak trees Large oak trees that provide ample shade & lighting that is hung for events Historic ambiance that includes a circa-1902 water tank house & cabin Small kitchen for caterer staging with gas range and oven, refrigerator & dishwasher Bridal Alcove on outdoor porch Modern restrooms Plenty of parking On-site event staff to assist during the event The grounds of the Shadelands Ranch are available for non-commercial use by individuals, families, businesses, and non-profit organizations from April - October

We had our wedding at Shadelands Ranch Museum in 2018 and couldn't have been happier with our decision! We had a few parameters to work within — a tight budget, a list of vendors we wanted to work with, and a large guest count. The staff at Shadelands were incredibly accommodating and easy to partner with. Since their policy allows food trucks and other mobile caterers, we were able to hire one of our favorite local BBQ restaurants to cater, which was a huge hit. The venue grounds are large enough to fit a sizeable group — perfect for our guests who brought children — they had plenty of room to run around on the lawn. In the summer, the venue adds string lights in the trees around their gazebo, creating a beautiful and romantic touch when the sun sets. The gazebo served as a beautiful centerpiece and the location for our photo booth. Our DJ had plenty of space to set up on the back patio, which doubled as the dance floor. The venue’s accessibility was incredible, with ample parking, clean restrooms, a kitchen, and a porch for the bride to ‘hide’ until the ceremony. And because the venue provided the tables and chairs, we only needed to rent table linens. Shadelands is the place to book if you want a beautiful and affordable outdoor wedding venue in Walnut Creek that can accommodate both your ceremony and reception. The attentive staff, accessible location, and flexibility around customization make it an ideal place to tie the knot!

Weddings by Katherine Marchand

  • Photographer
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves Walnut Creek, CA

I'm Katherine, a wedding photographer based in Oakland, CA. With over a decade of experience and features in Vogue, Brides, The New York Times, and more, I know how to create wedding photos that don’t just look stunning — they feel like you. No trendy filters, no forced poses, just authentic moments that reflect who you are. I believe the best moments aren’t staged. They unfold naturally, in the quiet glances, the belly laughs, and those unspoken connections shared with your loved ones. My goal is to capture those raw, in-between moments that truly make your wedding day yours!

Katherine helped us capture our civil ceremony at SF City Hall and we couldn't have been luckier to find her! She is incredibly fun, professional, organized, and delivered everything exactly as she described. A few things we especially appreciated was that since we had a full destination wedding planned a couple months later, she was very mindful of our budget and worked with us to still get what we were wanting for the civil ceremony. She also created a fantastic guide to SF City Hall Weddings that she sent early and to help get us prepared. And she's very thorough and communicative; she responds to emails promptly and if there was even a slight delay in delivering anything she told us immediately. And of course the photos turned out beautifully! Overall, we just loved her energy. Since she set up a video call before our date to get to know us and what we were looking for, it was like meeting an old friend when the day came. She was so easy to work with and we felt immediately comfortable with her. I can only imagine what a joy she is to have for a full wedding! We highly recommend working with Katherine!

I had no clue what to expect when it came to our wedding videos, my only concept was old VHS tapes from the 90’s... nothing fancy just a way to memorialize the day. Let me tell you this Videographer completely blew my mind with the videos he sent us. I swear, I thought I was watching a professional movie of our wedding day! He’s incredibly professional and made me feel completely comfortable while he was filming ( I normally get super awkward on video, I’m talented like that lol), I couldn’t have asked for a better experience or outcome. Anyone who is looking for a videographer in any capacity, for their wedding day, or a special day I highly highly recommend Interstellar Films, he’s a true artist.

We recently asked Joyce to be our photographer for our wedding at the San Francisco City Hall and we loved her. She was very friendly and provided great guidance on where to take photos and how to pose. Joyce was gracious and courteous and was always willing to work with any requests that we had, but we didn't have many since we were already happy with the direction that Joyce was giving us. We received the photos a couple months later and they turned out much better than we expected! Joyce really captured the best moments and the overall euphoric atmosphere of the day!

He was able to keep his cool and roll with the punches on our very crazy day. Our Photos are absolutely stunning! I honestly can't say enough good things about him. He took so many photos and his editing is wonderful. He also did our engagement photos all the way in Yosemite.

We planned this wedding from France and they were very helpful with everything that comes with planning an event from abroad.

I loved working with Jasmine for my wedding hair and makeup! From start to finish, she was super professional, incredibly responsive, and a clear communicator. Her makeup looks are beautiful and I chose to go with her signature soft glam with curled hair pinned back on one side. She did a fantastic job during the trial and the day of. After the trial, Jasmine was great at asking for my feedback and incorporating it into the final look for my wedding day. She's also mindful of tailoring her approach to your specific needs to help her work last longer. Make sure to tell her about your skin type and any specific concerns, like curls falling out of your hair easily, or oily eyelids for myself which might have affected the longevity of one eye's eyeshadow. Aside from that and a couple other minor touch ups needed throughout the day (grateful for her touch up kit!), the rest of my hair and makeup stayed all night long on my wedding day. I loved my look and thought it was even better than the trial! Even though she isn't a professional hairstylist, Jasmine really nailed it with my hair. It stayed flawless all day and night, despite the dress changes and jewelry adjustments throughout the day and I received multiple compliments on my hair! She's also easy going and nice to talk to - I really enjoyed the time spent chatting with her while getting ready in the morning. It was a great, peaceful way to start the busy day. Jasmine also helped do 2 of my bridesmaid's hair and did a beautiful job. One of them said that she has a really hard time getting curls to hold, but her hairstyle lasted all night long. I'm so grateful for Jasmine's help and would recommend her to any bride looking for a talented and personable HMUA!

Music is everything. It’s your history, your identity, and your joy. It’s what moves you on the dance floor and what moves you to tears. Quite simply: it’s the most important decision you’ll make at your wedding. All Ears DJ is a premier entertainment group that boasts a ten-deep crew of highly-skilled DJs and musicians. Don’t settle for anything less than a DJ who can wow audiences with perfect blends, mashups and song selections. Talent matters, and All Ears DJs have shown up & showed out at more than 1000 weddings in the San Francisco Bay Area, LA & Chicago during the past decade.

Richard was helpful and respectful throughout our entire wedding planning process. He worked flawlessly with me, my partner, and our wedding planner to pull off an incredibly fun reception. Richard did an initial call with my partner to discuss the general vibe we were looking for, and we knew immediately he would be a great fit for our wedding. Richard gave us a helpful questionnaire to fill out key songs and general musical interests (and do not play songs). Richard was also happy to jump on calls with us to talk through our questions and hopes for our big day. I especially appreciated that Richard was able to play some German songs for some guests who had flown in from Germany, as that got even some of our older relatives on the dance floor. People were partying all night thanks to Richard! Richard catered to our wide age range of guests, and even gave us a couple of bonus closing songs that were the perfect conclusion to the night. We could not have asked for a better DJ.

My name is Judy Leung (she/her) and Found Floral is based in San Francisco Bay area & beyond. Found floral is rooted in intentional and modern approach to floral and event design. With a focus on creating a flowerful experience that celebrates the culture and stories that are uniquely yours.

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Judy at Found Floral was one of the best decisions my husband and I made during our wedding planning process! I knew I wanted florals that were textured and unique and not too cookie-cutter or traditional, so this was my top criteria when searching for a florist. Judy was able to masterfully bring the vintage backyard dinner party feel to our wedding which had 260 guests and still make our wedding feel unique (each table had different tropical and rarely seen flowers). Over 20 of our guests have mentioned to me since how much they loved the florals at our wedding since then - so many people have complimented our florals and shared that they are their favorite florals they've ever seen at a wedding and are still thinking about them today (some guests even have group texts focused specifically on our wedding florals)! The other big thing Judy did for us was the florals for the mandap (arch) for the ceremony - it was so spectacular and such an incredible focal point! It was raining for our entire ceremony so we were grateful to have a pop of color against the grey backdrop. The Found Floral team also used such unique flowers for the arch and laid them out in a way that was the perfect balance of textured but also refined (without being stiff or overly formal). My favorite part of working with Judy was that she took the time to understand my vision but then was able to operate and make decisions independently to bring that vision to life. There are 10000 things to do during wedding planning and it was such a relief to know we were in good hands with Judy and not having to make tiny decisions like picking out individual flowers or greenery or designing much of anything. I would work with Judy again in a heartbeat - she has such a chic unique style and is warm and makes her clients feel so comfortable at every stage of the process. Found Floral truly is the best florist in the Bay Area!!

Awarded Best of Zola
We were referred to Savvy Weddings because Amanda had coordinated my sister’s beautiful wedding in Hawaii. When my sister mentioned that Amanda had a California counterpart and partner, Sandra, who handled all California weddings, we knew we had to meet her. From the moment we connected with Sandra, it was clear—she was an absolute godsend! I truly can’t imagine having planned my wedding without her by our side. Sandra was attentive, thoughtful, and with us every step of the way. Even though we only booked the “month-of” service, she generously provided support well in advance, joining us for vendor consultations and venue walkthroughs nearly a year before the wedding. She went far beyond what we expected, giving us peace of mind through the entire planning process. Her dependability and calm presence made everything feel manageable, and I knew I could trust her completely. When the wedding weekend finally arrived, Sandra and her amazing team were on top of every detail. They took care of everything seamlessly, helping me stay calm and present—something I didn’t think would be possible with all the wedding-day jitters! Thanks to Sandra, my wedding day was everything I dreamed of and more. So much of the magic we experienced was because of her and her incredible team. I will forever cherish the memories of that day, and I am endlessly grateful to Sandra for making it all happen. If you’re considering Savvy Weddings, do yourself a favor—hire Sandra. She will make your wedding dreams come true!

  • Serves Walnut Creek, CA

I'm Hannah, a full time wedding and portrait photographer in Livermore, California. To me, photography is so much more than just hiring another vendor. And that's why you should choose someone you truly love to work with! I believe the real magic happens during the in-between moments – a secret smile shared by the parents; a tearful hug with the maid of honor; a quirky moment with the best man. These memories are far more precious than any staged photo, and these are the memories I want to capture for you on your big day.

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot say enough about how happy we are we hired Hannah as our wedding photographer! Once I saw her work I knew we had to work with her immediately, specifically for the sunset photos that looked right out of a bridal magazine! I immediately reached out to Hannah and pretty much the rest is history! Our phone call to gauge if we would be a good fit was filled with laughs and it just felt so natural! She was extremely communicative and easy to work with which helped with all my wedding planning anxieties tremendously. The engagement shots with her was where we first got to meet and it felt like meeting a true friend. She had us laughing non-stop and made us feel truly comfortable. We felt awkward on our drive over, having never done professional photos before, but she immediately put us at ease! On the day of the wedding Hannah and her team were so kind, so efficient, and so professional! We had a large (read here rowdy) wedding party and some difficult family dynamics that they expertly navigated. Their team made sure everyone just truly was themselves and had fun! The pictures showed just how comfortable and happy everyone was in her presence. The photos truly captured the spirit of our big day and transport us right back there every time we look through them. Our family and friends we have shared the photos with are absolutely amazed and just how well they turned out and how much they feel like our big day did. I cannot recommend Hannah and her team enough! Truly the best decision we made!

I loved working with FilmmanVideo so much that I hired them for my own wedding. Christina is so cheerful and friendly, and she's also a very hard worker. They go into each event prepared with a vision so they know exactly what shots to capture. Christina is always quick to respond and doesn't hesitate to ask questions to ensure we are on the same page. As a wedding planner, clear communication and working with professional vendors is a must because it makes things easier for me because I can trust them. And the wedding videos they make are amazing! There is a beautiful, story-telling flow about them and I was thrilled with how artistic they made our own wedding video. All of our guests commented on how amazing the video was and that it felt like they were watching a cinematic movie. Many of our friends and family even mentioned they teared up while watching. I recommend FilmmanVideo to all of my couples seeking a videographer because they are amazing people and create beautiful work! Thank you FilmmanVideo!

One word: Perfect. As someone who suffers from severe anxiety, I can honestly say I have never felt more at-ease and confident than while working with the Wedgewood Weddings Redwood Canyon team -- they always had our backs, kept us on track, and made us feel taken care of. From the first venue visit, during the planning meetings, all the way until the rehearsal and wedding day, the professionalism, clear communication, planning resources, and organized approach made for a seamless experience. We worked with Allison as our Wedding Planner and Coordinator and I firmly believe that she is one of the main reasons our wedding went as incredibly as it did. Redwood Canyon, provides a planning binder as soon as you sign that includes monthly checklists ahead of the wedding to help keep you organized in between planning meetings. It is also filled with valuable information about the wedding planning process, examples, vendor questions, and general guidelines. It helped us structure the planning process without losing the ability to truly personalize our event. Every meeting we had with the planning team was concise, direct, and organized -- it helped us stay on track throughout the process and gave us the opportunity to discuss ideas and ask for advice (which they are also more than happy to give via email). Super responsive and accommodating -- we were so impressed with how easy the process was. We also partnered with their recommended Bakery, DJ, and Florist as part of our vendor team, and the coordination between venue and vendors was absolutely seamless...by the time the week of the wedding rolled around all the main aspects were locked in and we knew the event was in good hands. The wedding day itself was perfect. Allison served as our Day-Of-Coordinator, and together with Jacoby (co-coordinator), Liv (banquet captain), Liz (banquet captain), and rest of the team (cooks, servers, bartenders) we had the most incredible wedding. We arrived at the agreed-upon time on the day of the wedding, and from that moment onwards, the Redwood Canyon team took over to deliver the best experience. They were organized, calm, kept us well hydrated and fed, and kept everything on track for us all night. We were able to confidently hand off the reins -- we didn't have to think of anything all day other than having a good time and enjoying our day as much as possible, trusting that all the logistics were in good hands. Overall, the venue itself was gorgeous. We had our ceremony in the Arbor Lawn, our Reception in the Grand Ballroom (we initially chose the venue primarily because of the dance floor), and rented out the Rose Room for the Cocktail Hour. Everything was included and beautifully decorated with all our desired personal touches, the food and drinks were delicious, and the planning and coordination services must be some of the best in the business. I can't imagine a more incredible experience than what we had and am so thankful for the Redwood Canyon team's care and professionalism -- especially Allison, who we were fortunate enough to work with from first meeting through the day-of. The wedding day went off without a hitch and I couldn't recommend the Redwood Canyon team more 3

I adore details and love when couples pour their hearts and souls into making their wedding a special day they will remember forever.

I got married in Napa Valley and didn't know who to hire for my professional pictures. The venue recommended a few names and after contacting Vanessa I knew that is who I wanted to work with. She was very caring and patient. She was on time and didn't disrupt the moment when I was getting ready, instead she made it special. She gave us poses to do and talked to the venue to make sure we could go to a little bridge I wanted to take pictures at. I highly recommend her!!
