As a little girl I dreamed of having a fairytale wedding- a wedding that was beautiful, magical,…read moreand the perfect backdrop to marrying my prince charming. The Willow Ballroom was it- I had my eyes on this place and crossed my fingers that one day I could get married here. Soon the time came and when my now husband and I toured the venue for the first time we were enchanted by the venue's beauty, detail, and amazing aesthetic. On our wedding day our family and friends were gushing over how incredible the Willow Ballroom was. Adjectives we have been hearing a lot are breathtaking, gorgeous, and Taylor Swift Love Story vibes. I completely agree. One reason it is breathtaking is the chandeliers and drapes. WOW, the first time I walked in they were setting up for an open house and even when everything wasn't fully set up it looked amazing! The height of the chandeliers and drapes are put at the perfect spot. The aisle I walked down on was lined with chandeliers, it made me feel like a Disney princess! All of the decor in the space is handpicked and well arranged. Every item of decor makes sense, nothing is too big or too small for the space. Also everything in the space is clean, classy, and elegant. During cocktail hour our family and friends loved the seating and table options and they said it added an extra special touch to our wedding. They also couldn't get over the beautiful giant mirrors that welcomed you into the venue. For the adjective gorgeous every step you take into the venue puts you in a state of awe. Even the bathrooms are decorated so nicely and cleanly! From the outside to inside space there are so many gems for spots to take pictures. They also have a private estate that has amazing greenery and is a pretty background for more wedding photos. Angelica and her family did a really great job giving space for couples to make their wedding picture dreams come to life. You might chuckle at the Taylor Swift Love Story adjective, but it is an absolute complement. Angelica provided a wonderful list of preferred vendors- we were able to get the vendor dream team. My family and friends couldn't stop talking about each of the vendors from signage to florist to the ice cream cart to photography etc. Usually there is just one vendor everyone loves but it seemed like nobody could pick their favorite because they were all SO good! Each of these vendors were familiar with the Willow Ballroom and all came together to emphasize the venue's magnificent features and celebrate our special day. They all took my wedding dreams and picked the best designs, colors, and food to match the venue perfectly where everyone was singing Love Story (Taylor's version) in their heads throughout the night. Angelica works well with all the vendors to inform them with accurate information and communicates in a detailed way and we are incredibly thankful for that! The Willow Ballroom is an absolute beautiful space and we highly recommend you getting married or hosting your event there!

The venue is so beautiful by itself and comes to life even more on the wedding day. The drapes and lighting make the place feel very magical.

Sage was there for the event, he checked out us through the day and made sure the garbage bins were emptied throughout the party. He also set up the tables prior and helped with opening the chairs. He was kind, professional, and helpful. We did a walk through prior to our event and one after the event was completed. I would definitely book again!

I rescheduled for another time, and once again, it was canceled. When I reached out to the event manager, Cole, to see if there was a more reliable time to book, he simply reiterated that he's the only one handling tours and sometimes can't make it. There was no effort to accommodate my schedule or acknowledge the inconvenience of having to rearrange childcare and other commitments just to be canceled on again. Lack of customer service and professionalism. I've decided this isn't a place I want to take my business if this is how customers are treated from the beginning. If you're looking for a dependable venue that values your time, I would think twice before booking here.

I was randomly scrolling on Instagram and came across XO Pilates hotties and lo and behold, this is one of the events featured this month at this beautiful venue. I'm a Drake fan so of course it took no convincing for me to attend. Now I have to mention I have never done Pilates a day of my life and physically it was challenging, but the way this event was set up with the various vendors and they even had a little bar and a food truck took all that anxiety away. I highly recommend if you're into Pilates and you want to have an evening or a day to enjoy with friends or even if you go alone, I highly recommend attending events here at this venue. I am so glad that I made it out. I had a great time although I was so sore but it also gave me the opportunity to experience some local vendors that or at this event.

The natural beauty of the venue will grab your attention, but the ease of working with the staff will melt your stress away and capture your heart! We had our wedding here on May 25, 2025 and it was THE BEST DAY OF OUR LIVES! We had our ceremony in the ballroom and it was everything I imagined brought to life. All guests then went downstairs to the epic Locked Barrel Whiskey Lounge for cocktail hour while the ballroom was transitioned into the reception of my dreams! The food was delicious, the drinks were perfect, and the service was first class. Each and every guest enjoyed themselves all day and dozens of people told me this was the best wedding they've ever been to. We were impressed with every detail of this venue from the moment we stepped foot inside a year ago while we were still venue hunting. My conversations with Sabrina and Rachelle solidified our decision to have the biggest day of our lives here. They are the glue that hold everything together, they are consummate professionals, and just the most fun! Careful, you will want to be best friends with them before the planning process is over! We are not rich, but they maximized our budget and this venue made me feel like a wealthy queen on our big day. Some folks even asked my husband how much money he makes because our wedding seemed so expensive! Trust me, it wasn't cheap, but compared to other comparable venues The Elks Tower is by far the best value you can get in Sacramento. It was worth every dime spent and I would do it all again if I could. I'll never forget how amazing our wedding day was and an enormous thanks for that goes to the hard working staff led by Rachelle and Sabrina!

The ballroom is a stunning two-story space with an elegant balcony - ornate, full of character, and the perfect setting for such a special day. Truthfully, we are all still on cloud nine, and I want to tell you why. It starts with the real stars behind the venue. Sabrina and Rachelle, our banquet event manager and coordinator, delivered seamless execution and went above and beyond at every stage. With more than 20 years of experience, their expertise was evident from the moment we began planning. Unlike other venues/coordinators we encountered, Sabrina and Rachelle genuinely listened to our vision, offered thoughtful suggestions, and shared creative ideas that elevated our event beyond what we had even imagined. Their attention to detail was impeccable. From the food presentation - exquisitely elegant, with varied buffet heights and beautifully ruffled tablecloths to the flawless table settings that radiated sophistication - everything felt extraordinary. Guests enjoyed an hour of pre-dinner appetizers, including a central charcuterie board and pre-poured champagne glasses, which helped avoid the usual rush you often see at events like this. They also suggested two fully staffed bars with two bartenders each, open the entire time, ensuring easy access for everyone. They were spot on as there were no lines the entire night! The buffet for 185 guests - featuring salads, chicken marsala, teriyaki salmon, vegetables, and a show-stopping prime rib carving station with two carvers - was beautifully presented. Guests moved through the line amazingly fast, with everyone served in just 30 minutes. Throughout the event, the entire team operated like clockwork: appetizers were served promptly, dining service ran seamlessly, bartenders were efficient, and guests were always well taken care of. Even weeks later, many people are still commenting on the attentive and seamless service they experienced from the staff at The Elks Tower. Sabrina, Rachelle, and their staff exemplified professionalism, grace, and quiet efficiency. They truly covered every detail from beginning to end, allowing us to enjoy the celebration stress-free. If you're looking for a fabulous venue and coordinators who listen, deliver beyond expectations, and make your event flawless, look no further - Sabrina and Rachelle are absolute gems, and The Elks Tower ballroom is a stunning venue that will elevate any occasion.
