Most amazing wedding
We were thrilled with our wedding venue, Garden Valley Ranch. Our venue host Jessica was a delight to work with - she was responsive, organized, and made the planning process smooth and stress-free. The venue itself is simply gorgeous, with lush rose gardens providing a romantic backdrop for our ceremony and reception. The staff went above and beyond to ensure everything ran perfectly on our big day. From the beautiful floral arrangements to the delicious cuisine, every detail was executed flawlessly. Our guests are still raving about the venue weeks later! We wholeheartedly recommend Garden Valley Ranch to any couple looking for an idyllic setting with top-notch service for their special day. The venue and wonderful staff like Jessica made our wedding a fairytale come true we'll cherish forever.
One of a Kind Venue
Garden Valley Ranch is such a unique and beautiful venue. From the cute cottages on property for couples to stay the night or get ready in to all the unique different spaces to use like the Belvedere and Hidden Garden, this venue provides so much. Jessica, the owner, is so flexible and truly wants all couples that book with her to have the best day. Working with other vendors that have restrictions for set up and drop off, Jessica is flexible and accommodating. The grounds are maintained beautifully and the roses are stunning. This venue offers so much in beauty and really is one of a kind.
The Most Beautiful Sonoma County Venue!
This is my absolute favorite venue! It has all of the amenities you need for a wine country wedding, beautiful gardens and indoor/outdoor event spaces all designed and manicured specifically for weddings. Bonus! The staff is very friendly and accommodating.
