Where to begin...I absolutely LOVED working with Angelica & The Willow Ballroom. She made it so easy throughout the entire wedding planning process, and she truly cared about us having the best day possible. Her attention to detail, expertise, industry knowledge, suggestions, and caring demeanor did not go unnoticed. We toured several spots around the greater Sacramento area for our wedding, and we had the best experience with The Willow Ballroom. It was such a beautiful and unique space, and we didn't have to worry about a ton of decor because the space speaks for itself (which saved us money!). Highly recommend working with The Willow Ballroom for not only weddings, events, reunions, the list goes on, it really can do it all!

In April 2023, my husband and I were fortunate enough to have our wedding at the beautiful Monk Ranch in Dixon, California. The property was perfectly set up, creating an enchanting atmosphere for our special day. One of the highlights of our experience was working with Gail, who went above and beyond to make our wedding dreams come true. Monk Ranch offers an idyllic and serene setting for any wedding celebration. The property is thoughtfully designed to accommodate both the ceremony and reception, providing ample space for guests to enjoy the stunning surroundings. We were particularly taken by the romantic ambiance created by the rustic elegance of the barn, which served as the perfect location for our reception. Gail was an absolute pleasure to work with. From our first interaction, her dedication to making our wedding day flawless was evident. She was incredibly helpful and attentive, always available to answer questions, offer guidance, and ensure that every detail was perfectly executed. Her warm and friendly demeanor immediately put us at ease and allowed us to focus on celebrating our love. Our guests were just as impressed with the venue and Gail's exceptional service. Many commented on the beautiful setting, the seamless organization of the event, and Gail's professionalism and genuine care for our wedding. It is clear that Gail and the Monk Ranch team are passionate about creating unforgettable experiences for couples and their loved ones.

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!

We booked the gardens in mid May for our wedding and it was a gorgeous wedding venue! It offers a spacious, beautiful garden teeming with blooming roses, different garden areas to explore, a super cute gazebo ceremony space, a nice cocktail area near the reception room, and the reception room with large windows for plenty of natural light. The lot has 50 free parking spaces. The rental rate is fairly reasonable for the venue space and what's offered. In addition to the main spaces, there's a getting ready room downstairs available to add on, seating for the ceremony, circle/rectangular (not full width) tables for dinner, and a few cocktail tables for the bar area downstairs. Management allows for a fair amount of DIYing and independent vendor selections, with the only exceptions being a preferred catering list with good selection and off list caterers allowed with a fee and vetting. Professionals also must put up any hanging decorations in the reception room, and decor can't be hung directly off of the garden structures and reception room walls. We communicated with Jenna throughout the planning process. She was super responsive and helpful, answering every question we sent her way. Overall, I loved the gardens for our wedding and would recommend it to others!

You cannot go wrong with this venue. The property was ideal and could be scaled to meet the needs of our wedding and reception. I cannot say enough about Elaine and her family, making themselves available to us throughout the planning stage. They also made sure we had everything in place for the day of the event. Make sure you tour the cottage and consider renting it for your event. It made the day perfect for getting ready and we spent our wedding night there.

Thank you for everything you did for me and my husband to help create such a beautiful and perfect day.

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!
