    As a local California wedding photographer, I’ve had the joy of working at The Mountain Terrace in Woodside many times over the past few years, and it’s truly one of my favorite venues. Nestled among the towering redwoods, this place offers a magical blend of natural beauty and charm that’s perfect for weddings from 20 people to 150. No matter the size, it always feels like an elevated backyard weddings with seamless transitions between spaces with plenty of photo oppurtunities. The outdoor ceremony space, with its meadow and stunning views of the Bay Area, is absolutely breathtaking. And the transition to a yummy dinner on the deck makes for such a cozy evening to top off the celebration. Not to mention, the fire pits s’mores option at the end of the night is an excellent way to make sure all guests feel comfortable and can enjoy their time - dance party or no! From a photographer’s perspective, this venue is a dream. The redwoods, open spaces, and panoramic views create endless opportunities for gorgeous photos, no matter the season or time of day. Plus, the staff here are amazing - always professional, friendly, and on top of everything, making every event run smoothly. I highly recommend working with their venue coordinators to keep things running smoothly, and the kitchen staff is beyond. I ALWAYS look forward to dinners at Mountain Terrace as they use fresh and seasonal ingredients and have some of the best dinner options of any of the venues I’ve worked at. If you’re looking for a wedding venue that’s serene, picturesque, and run by a fantastic team, The Mountain Terrace is a fantastic choice. It’s a place where unforgettable memories are made!

    The Mountain Terrace is the perfect wedding venue for couples who love nature and redwood forests. As a wedding photographer who specializes in redwood weddings, I have recommended this venue to many couples. Working with Kristy and the Mountain Terrace team is a dream. Their communication throughout the planning process is organized, clear, and concise, making it easy to coordinate all the details. The venue itself is stunning with gorgeous views of the peninsula and an on-site redwood grove tucked in the mountains. The catering is delicious and top-notch, while having all the celebration amenities in one location makes throwing the wedding party a breeze. I would highly recommend The Mountain Terrace to any couples looking for a beautiful outdoor wedding location in the Bay Area.

    As a photographer, we know that you get to perform your craft at a wide range of locations making your recommendation that much more valuable! We are so thrilled that you enjoy working with Kristy and our Mountain Terrace team. Your photographs capture our couples beautifully in our redwood grove, mountain top setting, dining on the decks and indoor celebration as well. It is truly a pleasure working with you, Vivian, and we commit to continuing to feed you well at each event so you are properly fueled to continue capturing every key moment of each celebration!

    The Mountain Terrace was the perfect venue for a wedding. Their communication style is responsive, welcoming, and relaxed throughout the planning process. The quality of their work and the overall value was truly magical - the private, beautiful, and natural setting of the redwoods made for a glorious backdrop to celebrate. From the delicious food to the seamless coordination by the professional, low-key staff, they continually exceed expectations and helped make couple's wedding day unforgettable.

    Response from vendorDec 20, 2024
    Partnering with you is always a joy, Lili. You are professional, creative and committed to honoring each couple and your calm demeanor is such an asset at a time that can be stressful for couples. We value responsive communication and you make it easy to partner with you when planning and coordinating weddings at The Mountain Terrace.
