We just got married there, and it was honestly beyond anything we could've hoped for. The venue…read moreitself is stunning--peaceful, warm, and naturally beautiful in a way that doesn't need (or want) a bunch of over-the-top extras. But what made it truly unforgettable was Rachel and her incredible team. From the very beginning, Rachel made everything feel easy. She's organized, intuitive, calm, and somehow manages to be both laid-back and on top of every detail. I never felt overwhelmed, never stressed. I fully trusted her, and that trust paid off a thousand times over. The florals were perfect--gorgeous but not fussy, exactly in tune with the setting and the vibe we'd envisioned. Her staff was so kind and attentive, and the whole event flowed effortlessly thanks to their care and presence. Guests kept commenting on how beautiful everything was, but also how relaxed and fun the day felt. There was no pretense or pressure--just love, laughter, tacos (SO GOOD), and pure joy. Rachel also helped us source our hair and makeup artist (who was amazing), our dessert vendor (adorable and delicious), and even supported our late-night In-N-Out plan. She managed every piece of the puzzle with grace and humor, and made sure we got to actually enjoy our wedding day. (Which we did. Fully. With Palomas. And a piano man. And guacamole on my dress.) We've joked with our guests about making this an annual thing, and honestly? We might not be joking. Yokayo is that special. And if you're lucky enough to have Rachel by your side, you're in very good hands.

September 13, 2025 - Redwood Valley, CA…read more We stopped by on a Saturday and were surprised at how quiet it was. A big plus: they're dog-friendly. The tasting room itself is stunning, with soaring 40-foot ceilings arching over a central fountain--worth a visit just for the architecture.

The wines were enjoyable, and the prices refreshingly reasonable compared to many other wineries these days.

Testa, Testa! YOU my dear, are in a league of your own. One of the best wine tasting experiences…read morethat I've had! Testa was recommended to me by one of the wonderful servers at Patrona in Ukiah. She told me that I had to come here for a tasting before I left the area, and I did. And damn, am I happy that I did! This was my favorite tasting experience while out in the Ukiah area. What I loved about the tasting room here is that it's quaint, intimate, and super relaxing. No big crowds that you have to push through to make your way to the tasting room. It's quiet, peaceful, and the views are just astounding. And it's doesn't hurt that their estate is so damn adorable! The entire setup is truly darling! There's a beautiful covered deck with the most comfortable sofas! It reveals the most majestic views of their pond, garden, and vineyards. They have several shaded picnic tables and a rocking chair. You can walk around the premises and get lost in all of the beauty that surrounds it. I was literally falling asleep on the couch while I sat out on the deck and tasted. Yep, that's how comfortable I was! Their wines are very tasty as well! They make a variety of whites and reds and have won many awards for their delicious creations. They have their award-winning wines and ribbons posted on the wall of their indoor tasting area. A tasting consists of 5 of their wines. I'm not sure what the cost is for a tasting, but the tasting fee is waived with the purchase of a bottle and their prices are really reasonable. I really enjoyed their "Black" red blend the most and ended up purchasing a bottle to take home. A fun fact about this wine: it was created by their own members at a winemaker's party that they had at the winery. I couldn't believe that the members actually put together such a good blend, but it's amazing! You can fish in the pond for free if you're member! Another interesting fact is that they only use 10% of the wine that they produce. The other 90% is outsourced to other wineries! Now, that's how you KNOW that it's good! Saving the best for last of course. The main reason why I enjoyed tasting here so much was because of JENN!!! That lady is friggin' AMAZE BALLS, mmkay? So much personality and knowledge packed inside of that little body of hers! I honestly felt like I was hanging out with an old friend from high school. Her passion for wine is so undeniable. People like her are so rare to find these days. She is perfect at what she does and Testa is so lucky to have her there. I hope she stays at Testa for many years to come because I want her to be there when I come back again. Whew! I did it again! I done wrote up another novel, y'all! I can't help but to gloat about the places that I love. Well... if you're actually still reading this, then pleeeeeaase make your way out to Testa! I promise you won't regret it!

I've been coming to Sea Ranch for years, yet I had never heard of Stone Ranch until recently. A…read morefriend invited me to their First Sunday of the Month public tour, and I left in awe. Stone Ranch is an enduring legacy of Peter Mullins, who devoted his life to stones, and it has now been lovingly opened to the public by his daughter, Genevieve Mullins. Spread across acres of redwoods, this open air museum holds a collection of extraordinary stone art installations and a few unique dwellings perfect for retreats, weddings, and special events. Absolutely not to be missed when you're in the area. Plan at least 2-3 hours to enjoy the art rain or shine (as a matter of fact some installations come alive with color when raining).

At the end of 2022 we contracted with current owner Rocio Ortega for a wedding reception on October…read more14th, 2023. We signed the contract and paid $800 cash up front (half of the total base rental fee for the day) with the agreement that I would continue to make cash payments until I had paid the rest of the rental fee and optional cleaning fee as written in the contract. Over the Christmas holiday our family circumstances/plans abruptly changed and we realized that we needed to cancel our event due to a need to move out of the area. I called Rocio Ortega on Sunday, January 1st to notify her of our choice to cancel the rental. I acknowledged that although the contract says we forfeit half the rental fee (so the $800 we initially paid) that I would like her to consider refunding us half that amount due to cancelling so far in advance. During that conversation she expressed reluctance to honor that request but ultimately said she wanted to talk to her husband about it and would get back to me in "a week or so." Today's date is February 9th, 2023 and Rocio has not only failed to get back to me as promised, but there has been zero response to multiple texts, phone calls and emails from both myself and my husband. Even if the choice is not to honor my request for partial refund, ghosting me is VERY UNPROFESSIONAL!!! I have subsequently learned that Rocio has several unpaid invoices with my employer from events the company has contracted for and is dodging their calls as well. The venue itself is a lovely, historical building but highly recommend NOT doing business with Rocio Ortega.

Lisa, the manager I believe, is aware of these problems but has no immediate plans to fix them. When the contract was signed, we declined use of their stereo and lighting options. She came in DURING our wedding reception and tried to harangue us into using these systems(there is an additional cost to them). She turned on the lighting, and then left without turning them off, even though we reiterated we didn't want to rent them or the sound system. Then she charged us for the lights and took it out of the cleaning deposit. When we pointed out this was a violation of the contract, she took that charge off, but increased what she had already charged us for cleaning by that same amount. So, while the building was adequate, the aggravation of dealing with Lisa and the contract made the overall experience one we would not repeat or recommend.
