My sister wanted a simple, rustic, outside, romantic wedding. Honestly, I don't even know how she found Hacienda los Robles but it was exactly what she wanted!
Big hacienda house, where the owners live, has a beautiful entrance, and rustic feel. To the side of it, is this beautiful lychee orchard, that feels like is hugging you when you walk into it, giving shade and shelter from rain. You can imagine how amazing the pictures are, surrounded by all these gorgeous trees, and how peaceful and romantic it is.
Walk around to the back of the house, and there's the porch, with rocking chairs, and beautiful antique cars, which can be used to escort you to the orchard on your wedding day. You just pick which one, making you feel like you're in an old movie and giving your pictures a classic look.
Across from this, there's a pool, an open green space, and then two charming cottages. These cottages are for the bride, groom and wedding party the day of the event. They can also be reserved for the night, as a bed and breakfast if you decide to stay or want them available for guests. The details in these cottages are adorable. Again, rustic/ antique feel. They both have a bed, fridge filled with water and sodas, a desk with mirror, bathroom, and the owner added some pastries and champagne to celebrate while getting ready. To add to its charm, the bride's cottage has a (two people) swing on its porch. This not only is lovely but relaxing, which is important for the bride on her wedding day.
All the above is available for your event. You decide which space(s) you want to use, and how to decorate it. They will work with you, no problem, and will help you achieve what you have always envisioned for your special day.
We met with the owner a couple of times and she was always sweet, and helpful. She gave us a complete tour of the hacienda, and allowed my sister to bring all decorations, including adding string lights and a dance floor to the green area in front to the cottages. She also made sure everything ran smoothly during the wedding, assisting the planner, flower person, photographers and caterers. She also helped with the last minute details of the decorations supplying glue, tape, tools when needed. Very attentive and well prepared.
Ceremony was in the orchard, cocktail hour was at the house's porch, dinner and dancing in the green open area, and bar near the pool. The entire place was at her disposal, and flowed perfectly, without any issue. They also added some cute details, like an antique truck at the entrance with lemonade for guests when they arrived, and then it was moved to the back for guest to put the gifts and sign the guest book.
Like I said, this was the perfect venue for my sister's wedding, and I still smile thinking how happy she was on her special day. For a bride to have such a wonderful experience and have her vison come to life as she dreamt it, is important and they made this happen. Absolutely one of the most beautiful venues and weddings I've been to. read more
