Chrissy was amazing, she was so on top of everything and so easy to work with. The students did a fantastic job as the wait staff. The food was perfect! I love that we were able to pick our favorite dishes to be served; not many venues let you do that! Price was super reasonable as well. I'm so happy I chose this venue!! Unforgettable day. Thank you Chrissy and team.

The Sesnon House is a great wedding venue. Highly recommend. The venue is part of the culinary…read moreschool. Chef Andrea, who is a professor of the culinary school, also offers a lot of options to customize the menu. For example, we wanted to incorporate chestnuts and dates into our menu. We had this Korean traditional ceremony where our parents gave us blessings with chestnuts and dates. Chef Andrea customized hors d'oeuvre to be roasted chestnut crostini. We also had desserts with them - chocolate chestnut cakes & a family-recipe date bar. It was awesome. Many people complimented our food, and it made me very happy because food is such an important factor in our lives (I am Korean and we live in NYC - food is all we care about haha). Students of culinary school prepared and served our food - it was such an honor to have those enthusiasm and joy on our big day. The venue comes with the day of coordinator - Chrissy. I can't say enough about her. She is the best. After the first meeting with her, I told my husband "I think we're in good hands". She is a seasoned professional who knows the ins and outs of the wedding. In general, it is a great venue with a great price & great staff. Highly recommend. Photo credit: @nicolejkimphotography

Beau the cat (not allowed in the house) provided companionship outside. The place was clean, warm (with electric heater) and comfortable.

My husband and I got married at Radonich Ranch in July. When we first visited the venue we fell in…read morelove with it's beauty and with Marky. Marky has a quality that makes her immediately become family. She was so responsive to us and answered all of our questions via the million emails we sent her. She has EVERYTHING taken care of and thought through, down to the smallest details. She cares so much about you and your day and it seems like it is truly a labor of love for her. We cannot say enough about how wonderful our day was, and it was in large part because of everything Marky and her team did for us. My biggest advice for anyone considering holding an event at Radonich Ranch is to not stress- Marky has it covered. We seriously cannot thank her and her team enough for pulling off the best wedding.

They handle everything including the coordinating, rentals, flowers, food and non alcoholic beverages. The owner of Vignette is Marky Carr and she is the sole contact for all of the planning. She is wonderful and you won't regret choosing this venue/company to host your special day. Marky is a seasoned professional and you can put complete trust in her that she will come through for you! Everything ran so smoothly, the day was absolutely seamless. I so appreciated her attention to detail and making sure all of the decor was how I wanted it. The flowers were beautiful, the food was great, and all of the day-of staff was super helpful and professional. I really can't reiterate enough, how wonderful it was to have Marky as someone I could rely on to make sure everything was just right. It was hard for me to understand why Brides always say "You're going to want to have someone else take care of things the day of." I'm so used to being the planner that it's hard to let go of control sometimes, but I completely understand what they are talking about now. It's just an overwhelming experience and I definitely didn't have the mindset to worry about all of the details, and I didn't have to because of her. She is a star and I hope she continues to enjoy doing what she's doing for many years to come, so other people can experience the same kind of wonderful wedding day she helps make happen!

Bella Vista is a beautiful private property in the hills across from the Almaden Reservoir. It is…read morereally the perfect backdrop for an outdoor wedding and reception. It worked great for our wedding of 70, but could accommodate up to 200 guests. Michelle and Troy, the owners, are so helpful and flexible. Our wedding had full Hindu and Jewish ceremonies with a full change of clothing for both families in between. Michelle was very responsive to all of our requests. Michelle and Troy were available during the rehearsal and on our wedding day to make sure all of our space, power, water, and other requirements were being met. Bella Vista is also super flexible about the vendors you bring in: as long as your vendors are properly insured, you can choose the rentals, lighting, decorators, caterers, and photographers you like best, which is rare for wedding venues. Credit for basic chairs, dinner tables, and linens was included in the fee, and this credit can be used towards upgraded rentals. We used farm tables instead of round tables; I would recommend these to complement the venue's natural beauty. Market lighting, wildflower centerpieces, and a wooden ceremony arch made everything look spectacular! At Bella Vista, you can really use your creativity transform the lawn into your dream backyard wedding. Other details: Bella Vista only does one wedding per weekend, so we had access to the property for exterior drop-offs a couple of days before the wedding and for pick-ups the day after, which made it really easy to coordinate vendor deliveries as well as personal drop-offs. A 2-hour rehearsal was also included. On our wedding day, we had access to a bridal suite as well as the whole main floor of the house, which was great to give our guests a break from the heat. The caterers used the kitchen and deck. Michelle and Troy are such awesome people to let couples use so much of their home, so please treat Bella Vista as you would your own house!

The hall itself was perfect for our needs - roomy enough for 20 seated banquet style with an area for crafts (wreath-making), food and drink stations, and gift tables. The heater worked well and the kitchen was clean and worked well for re-heating. We had great support from Patti Anderson (through SC Parks) in the booking process and on the day of the event. I would highly recommend Valencia Hall for a similar event. One tip: we had no cell reception at the Hall (though there is a land line); make sure to have guests print directions/map in advance.

We got a early access to the hall at 4 pm on the Friday prior to decorate and help set up tables. The tables and chairs are fold out but we were able to setup on three sections with ample space for kids to run around. There is a side room, ballroom style which can accommodate a DJ. Then there's a back kitchen with a couple stoves and ample space for a bar area. The hall has a stage and plenty of parking for guests. Although parking was not an issue there is a park across Little Corralitos Way for public parking. All in all, great experience, and not a ton of drama with the parking situation. Would recommend the hall for family get togethers and moderately sized events. One thing to keep in mind is cell service may be hit or miss and getting to the hall can be challenging for first time visitors. They can always stop at Corralitos Market and ask for directions.

The police were called, it was a real mess. Then all of the sudden it was decided that all of the cars were parked in the wrong direction and every single car had to be moved, a fire code issue they claimed. The worst part is that the flow of traffic was not impeded, people were able to pass through normally etc. It's just neighbors like this Yosemite Sam asshole who believe Corralitos belongs to them and they're going to police people, these generational types living in grandma's house.
