I made good use of the fridge and counter and there was plenty of room for the games we played, seating, and had fun dancing to the dj. Didn't have to worry about much. Bathrooms worked well and that was important to me. I didn't have any problems communicating with setting up prior to the event It held 80 people easy and the yard was well kept and nice for the potato sac game we played, and the corn hole game. I've booked another holiday party for next year and would highly recommed this place for my friends and family to do their gatherings. Four out of 5 stars because the parking was a bit confusing to.figure out. Plenty of space, but not lined so I needed to get some cones and figure it out (likely cause I overlooked this part and didnt ask..lol).

I had an event on April 26th for my baby shower. I met with Kristen who is the new event…read morecoordinator here, when meeting her she stated how she just took over this space since it transitioned from a church to an event space. I had planned this event since the beginning of the year. We were asked to give a deposit to reserve the date, she was late and had forgot so we had waited for her to arrive even after rescheduling from the original date. During the time between I had asked to confirm how many tables, how many chairs, how long were the tables. Which I was told there was 10 tables and seat 60 people which was perfect because that's capacity I was expecting for my event. When asked to confirm the table length I was told she was going to check the next day and then I heard nothing from her for two days. I reached out again where she gave me excuses that her husband had doctor's appointments and what not. I did not care, just needed the information for decoration purposes. The week of my event she asked me to call her regarding the payment (I had her on speaker with my partner in the car listening) I said I could meet at 7 and she said she goes into work at 3am and goes to bed at 7pm. I told her well if that doesn't work that I can zelle her which she was ok with (she never once stated anything about a walk through). The day of my event a few days later my partner arrives at 12pm and sends me a message saying we're going to need more chairs, my response was why she stated she had 60 chairs. He's telling me there was on 30 chairs available. Mind you this is the hour before my event which was to start at 1pm (she does not give you time for setup or breakdown of you event you have to pay for additional hours). I asked to speak to her she said she doesn't recall us talking about chairs just about how many tables and that there are only 30 chairs available, I told her she said there was 60 chairs 6 chairs per table she goes on and says to let her call the owner and see if he took any chairs. I arrive at the location she tells that the owner removed some broken chairs and I told her now I have to find remaining chairs in the hour I have to set up for my baby shower and pay out of pocket she said that's why she "wanted to do a walk through" when collecting final payment which was another lie because she never stated a walk through. I asked her if she is going to remove what I'm going to have to pay out of pocket from what I paid her for the event space, she said no. She started getting a bad attitude and extremely rude in front of my decorator and family saying that if I'm not happy that the owner said I can take my event somewhere else. Like wtf?! So unprofessional! I told her it's not personal it's business and you stated there was 60 chairs and now because you can't remember it's my fault and you have the nerve to tell me at 8 months pregnant with 1 hour to set up my event that I could take it somewhere else after I already paid you and gave you deposit?!!!!!!!! She lingered around for the 30mins and had the nerve to ask me if I need help finding chairs I told her I had it handled so she could leave and out of my face! Her own husband was telling her to be quiet after what she said to me. I do NOT wish that unprofessionalism on anyone's event and hope you don't bring her any business! She will learn as a new event coordinator and the owner as well that is NOT how you treat nor talk someone that has already paid you for a service. I kept quiet until she sent me my deposit back and I am warning all of you of my experience with Kristen. FYI: if your going to run a business your schedule needs to work with others schedule you can't expect everyone to be available when you want them to be just because you work at 3am it's called sacrifice and clearly you can't do that for the sake of the business

I've waited a year + to post this review pending a refund that never came for a wedding date that…read morewas cancelled months in advance as we no longer desired to use their services. There was no reason for these people to keep 5k with as much notice as they had The ultimate bait and switch. Our experience began with pulling up to our appointment time to about 15 other people in 3 different groups standing outside in the rain. We approached and they informed us that we could go take a look around the property, (unguided, uninformed, and in the rain). When we returned to the front about ten minutes later everyone was gone and there was a person outside that informed us that we could take our shoes off and go inside the guest house with the ~15 other people that were there. We walked around by ourselves for about 20 minutes until we were finally approached by someone. At that point it was time to go to the "something borrowed barn". By the name you would assume what this is. No. It is a warehouse painted red to match the rest of the property. When they let you in the door you are actually entering about a 200sqft room with the 15 other people touring the property at the same appt time and are all expected to share ONE (1) mock decoration table in which you may choose decorations they have in two cabinets in the room for your wedding day. Upon further questions the linens on the table and displayed in the room you may choose all other decor from are only available for rental. I wish this was the worst of it. The icing on the cake (and what they failed to disclose prior to committing to them) is that they do not allow liquor without a super special ultra premium gold star bartender with a super exclusive lisence

And the guest house is spacious and lovely. We decided it was the perfect location for our wedding! The best part about this venue is the people we worked with to plan our wedding day. Megan was gracious and extremely helpful in choosing all of the decorations, china, etc. Our wedding was in October of 2016 during the freak rain we had in Northern California that year. As our wedding day approached, it became apparent that it was going to rain. We were faced with paying $5,000 to rent huge tents! Instead Mardy offered us the use of their indoor facility - the Foothill Event Center at no extra charge. She literally saved our wedding day! Although we didn't have the bucolic ranch wedding we envisioned, we had a perfect wedding day! We will be coming back during a less rainy time of the year to renew our vows on our seventh anniversary :)

First the pros. - [ ] This venue is absolutely beautiful. The property and the barn with its chandlers, white draping intertwined with fairy lights are absolutely stunning. The venue at sunset is astonishing and creates a colorful backdrop for your special day. - [ ] The back patio and lawn areas are spacious and can comfortably accommodate 100 people. - [ ] They offer a small mobile bar and you choose 3 signature cocktails. They provide the mixers, water, ice, cups and straws. We provided the alcohol, beer and wine. - [ ] The Bridal suite was tastefully decorated and is an ample size for a small bridal party. - [ ] There is plenty of parking. The cons - [ ] The owner is extremely difficult and very unpleasant to work with. Not much is in writing and she changes her mind and the rules as she goes. She consistently made comments about us loosing our deposit if we did this or didn't do that. This was both prior to the wedding and during the wedding reception. I don't believe it was only us. When we came on Monday for the table delivery, she was complaining about the bride and the brides family from the weekend. - [ ] During our interview she told us that we could have access the week prior beginning on Monday. She said she was very flexible and just let her know when we wanted to come, she would work with us. Once the contact was signed we were told we could only have 3 hours prior to the wedding. She stated that she had been taken advantage of and had to tighten the access down to 3 hours. We had already made arrangements with her to have 10 barn tables dropped off on Monday and she told us that would count as 1 of our 3 hours. - [ ] During our 2 hours we had to set up the venue she was constantly with us offering her opinion. The bride had spent a lot of time deciding on how she wanted the tables and things set up. The owner was overbearing and constantly offering her opinion. It became very uncomfortable especially since we only had 2 hours to prepare. She told us that the tables needed color and looked bland. They were what the bride wanted. It was a hard and uncomfortable situation. - [ ] The bar ran out of ice and bottles waters early in the evening. Luckily it was not a hot day, the day's high was only 84 degrees. They did not refill the soda and water barrel. I had to ask twice but was told there was no ice or water. The majority of the time there was no ice and no bottled water. I had brought 2 large, very nice metal and copper drink tubs and were told no we couldn't use them, that hers would look better. - [ ] Parking is a long walk on uneven grass and in the dark. She has guests park on the opposite far edge of her property. She could easily have them park closer. I'm not sure why she does that? - [ ] No bathrooms, just two port a potty's for 100 guests. - [ ] At one point during the reception my daughter's grandmother went into the bridal suite to get something for my daughter and the owner hurried up to me and she told me that she had remotely locked the suite. That someone was in there that wasn't allowed. She said she locked it and we could find her if we needed to go inside and she would remotely unlock the door. She again threatened that she would have to keep our deposit if anyone went inside that wasn't allowed. Who wasn't allowed?? First I had heard of that?? - [ ] We followed the rules. Music stopped at 10:00. We had hired a helper and with the help of several family members we had everything cleared out, chairs stacked, tables wiped down and all garbage in bags put where we were instructed. We packed our cars and were out at 10:58 since everyone had to be out by 11:00. It was a challenge, but we did it. We started clearing off the runners, garlands and table signs while the dancing was still going on. We were confident that we would receive our full $1000 deposit back. - [ ] We received only $180 of our $1000 deposit back. Her reasons were ridiculous, unreasonable and unfair. We felt she planned to keep our deposit from the very beginning. The wedding was beautiful and the guests all enjoyed it. If I had to do it over I would not rent this beautiful venue. The owner was unpleasant, unfair and incredibly difficult to work with. She added so much unnecessary stress to the process.
