Our experience working with Ethereal Gardens for our wedding was incredibly frustrating from start to finish. Although the venue itself is beautiful, the communication with the staff was extremely slow and things were miscommunicated. We often struggled to get in touch with anyone. On the day of the wedding, the coordinator was incredibly hard to reach, which caused a lot of unnecessary stress. Additionally, we felt the venue was overpriced for what we were actually able to use - they have very strict restrictions on things like food options, getting ready suites, alcohol, and DJ selection.

We could not be more happy with Forgotten Barrel! Alyssa was wonderful and the vendors included in their all inclusive package (catering, dj, & dessert) were great to work with. The space itself is so pretty and has excellent amenities like both getting ready spaces, plenty of parking, and nice bathrooms. I cannot recommend this place enough!

I would highly recommend Rancho Guejito for your

Our wedding was a dream and there is nothing we would have done differently. The venue, decor, and atmosphere provided by the Wedgewood team felt perfect and personal. We are especially thankful to our coordinator Katey, who made us feel welcome and taken care of. She truly went above and beyond for us and we couldn't have imagined a better person to be our coordinator. Our banquet captain, Christina, was lovely and it meant a lot that she constantly came to check on us throughout the night and made sure we had everything we needed. We also want to thank

I got the chance to work at this wonderful venue and could not have asked for a better support team. Not only is the venue stunning, but also the venue staff, coordinators, planning team and photo/video team were so beyond helpful and supportive leading up to the event and on the day of. From set up to the service and clean up, it was extremely well executed and flowed seamlessly. Thank you Hidden Chateau team!! Can't wait to work at this venue again in the future :)
