Not out of this world but typical for a place that includes catering as part of a package. It's a very lovely venue. But there were some things that could have been better. Also when they were serving hors d'oeuvres there was no organization. You should send two out with the same item and one to the front of the room and one to the back. And get bigger trays. 5 a pop with a couple hundred guests is not realistic. As it was the front few tables got all the hors d'oeuvres and the back of the room got nothing. Just a tip there. They should have the reception area indoors. There are no pros to eating outside in south Florida. It's also a farm so when the breeze blows a certain way you get a whiff of the barnyard animals manure. 2. The servers were nice but all over the place. They should've assigned a server to each table. That way the food would be served in a more timely manner and no one would get neglected. 3.) the tables were crammed together making it hard to see what was going on, making hard to get in and out for the guests and the servers. Since they had farm tables and not round tables, conversation among the guests was nearly impossible. And if you were sitting across from little kids you got no conversation. 4.) they had to have big huge fans blasting on the guests to keep the heat down and the bugs away. Too much noise and when you have a fan blasting on you for half an event it's not so great for your respiratory system. I would advise that they inclose the reception area with a tent or something. I saw a very beautiful tent reception area at one of the other ranches in the Redlands that offers the same services. You were able to put soft background music on, no fans because there was ac. And the guests were able to sit at round tables so they could socialize. The tables were spaced so they could get up when needed or turn their chair to see. I also advise hiring someone who speaks English. No one there spoke English. Kinda hard for people who don't speak Spanish. Also, in their cabin they have the dance floor and the pre wedding area etc. They need more lighting when there is dancing because their seating is not safe. At least have enough lighting so people can see where they're sitting. When it's pitch black and you think you're sitting on the bench but there no bench because they weirdly leave gaping spaces, it's not very safe. Those are the reasons I give 3 stars. Other than that it's a very beautiful place. The bride and groom had a beautiful wedding venue and it was very nice. Also, I am basing my critique on a different ranch venue in the Redlands. The ceremony was not on the location but the reception was. So they had an outdoor are for drinks and hors d'oeuvres. They mingled amongst all the guests with large trays of hors d'oeuvres. Then when the bride and groom were about to arrive they closed that area and we went into a beautiful tent for the reception. It didn't look like a tent when you entered. It had regular doors and everything. Also, their parking was so organized.

I tried calling to get basic information and instead of getting a call back I get a text from the…read morephotographers assistant Natalie. She was extremely rude from the very first reply. I was shocked at how hostile, unprofessional, and passive aggressive she was with a potential new client. I was simply trying to get basic information so that I could book my session. Her first response to my first question- As stated in the ad, just one example of her passive aggressive tone. Then she proceeded to antagonize me and try to pick an argument. Her final classic passive aggressive jab after I called her out on her rude behavior- sorry you feel that way. I just had to laugh it off and move on as no photographer is worth dealing with this treatment. If getting simple information was this aggravating I had no interest in booking with her. It turns out I dodged a bullet because I discovered months later that a new friend had used her for her newborn photos and told me it was a nightmare to get her actual photos back with months of delays and bogus lies and excuses for the delays. Judging by the Yelp reviews that seems to be a common occurrence.

Attended a friend's wedding there. To start, the grounds were incredible. Waterfalls, swans and…read moreother wildlife throughout the property. A wonderful venue for any occasion, in my humble opinion. We were in a clear sided tent which was well illuminated and the air conditioning did not disappoint. The management has contacts for event management, music, food, decor, etc. I do not know if the family brought in their own music and catering or used the venue's, but both were very good. Highly recommend!

Joe is good to work with. But more importantly you need a great planner. Ours was Jessica G. Events. Was very disappointed in a few of their vendors, I'm posting here because they were recommended by the venue and don't have their own yelp page. Belkis floral- beautiful flowers but forgot the tall floral at the alter and the petals. Forgot we didn't want boutonnières. Very aloof when inquired after the wedding. Sagno catering: The apps were not like we had the tasting. The bruschetta was a tiny bit of tomato topping. Looked very sparse, the dates and walnuts were tiny, only saw the coconut shrimp once in the passed apps. The steak on the main course of the plated dinner was very small nothing like the tasting we had at secret gardens. Chicken Alfredo tortilini was not plated as we tasted. Everything was smaller portioned than our tasting. We did not go with Sagno for the cake since I did not like their cake. We ordered tiramisu, the tiramisu was not made with marscapone instead cream cheese, obviously cheaper and not the right taste. The Miami events- awesome all the way around! The violinist was amazing, the dance floor beautiful and great DJ. Drinks by us- great to work with but only around 8 bottles that were average brands. For a full open bar not sure it would be enough for a lager crowd. There are a lot of additional costs to the all inclusive price. I did feel a little nickeled and dimed about the early access for the brides room. 765.00 to get in the room 7:30 instead of 10. The room is empty and I thought that to be a pricey add on. Beware there is construction on the grounds and the bride and grooms rooms need some updating. All in all the wedding was amazing and like the backdrop of Secret Gardens.

He was BEYOND affordable, we've spent more at family dinners (with a bottle of wine), I wish I lived in Miami and would hire him again to include our dog, no hesitation with that price!! Even if he was more than twice the price that would be more than reasonable for the labor he puts into the shoot, the professionalism he delivers, his knowledge on lighting and poses, and his quick turn around with editing. So easy to use and talk to, he's a funny and family loving man, we had a wonderful time sharing stories and laughing during the photos. He guided us through the entire experience at Vizcaya, he had the sun mapped out for optimal lighting, and kept in mind sweat, lipstick reapply, and out of place hair, while carrying his and our bags. Santy is experienced and professional! Cannot wait to return for family photos in the future, my family will love him just as much as we did. Santy thank you for your work, you make the world a happier, more beautiful place!

After over a year of trying to recoup our losses, this is our only option left - My wife and I had…read morean original wedding date on 5/16/20. We had hired a photographer (@santymartinezphotography on Instagram)in the fall of 2019 and kept making monthly payments to him. By the time it got to April, we were basically paid in full (around $3K). Then, events got postponed bc of Covid and we had to push our wedding to 11/21/20 because it was a date that worked for us and our family. He then advised he was not available on that date, gave us some other dates to select from, but it was OUR wedding and we wanted to do it on a date that worked for us, not our photographer. So we then started the process of trying to get the thousands we paid him, back. He said it was in the agreement that he keep ALL of our money despite the fact that Covid cancelled all events so he wouldn't have been able to work on our original wedding date anyway, for anyone. We have since hired an attorney, however after several unsuccessful attempts to collect monies owed to us due to unjust enrichment and civil theft, he continues to remain unresponsive to any efforts - we even offered he keep the deposit and nothing. He is an unethical photographer chasing a buck rather than doing the right thing. So I want to make sure future clients don't fall for his trap.
