    From start to finish, Katie (the owner) and her team at The Speakeasy on State made our dream wedding come to life. The venue speaks for itself, but the entire wedding planning process was made effortless by Katie. She was kind, respectful, accommodating, and incredibly professional throughout. Every single one of our guests loved the ambiance, essence, and vibe of our wedding, which was all thanks to the team and the beautiful venue. Having grown up in Redlands and attended multiple weddings in the area, I can honestly say you're missing out if you don't seriously consider having your special day here. I wouldn't change a thing about our day. Katie and her family made everything absolutely perfect, and we couldn't be more grateful.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

    My husband and I had our wedding here just a few weeks ago and everything from the table decor to the floral arrangements was so beautiful. Katie and the vendors were always incredibly helpful in the whole planning process which made it all a breeze for us! There was nothing we would have changed. So grateful for how it all came together!

    It was a true fairytale wedding with this venue! So BEAUTIFUL!!! We are so blessed by Ariell and her team! Due to COVID-19 circumstances we had to postpone our wedding 2 times! Each time Ariell and her team were super understanding and accommodate us with anything we needed. It was the best day ever!! Thank you so much Speakeasy!

    We were married here this past May and it was perfect! The venue was beautiful and perfect for our winter rainy wedding! Everyone working there was so kind and special. 10/10 recommend!!

    We could not have picked a more perfect wedding venue than Speakeasy on State! We searched through a lot of different venues in Southern California, but many didn't feel right and/or nickel and dimed on everything. Speakeasy felt incredibly special when we first saw it. As a lover of vintage, I wanted something that matched my style and felt unique, and this historic space was all of that and more. So many of the details were kept in tact from when the building was a functioning speakeasy in the 1920s, and it was easy to see that the owners want to keep the magic of that time alive. Plus, Dawn was an absolute dream to work with! She was so kind and dealt with all of my emails asking a million questions. We had so much fun working with her and getting to know her. Part of why we chose Speakeasy was because we were able to choose a package that came with the food, cake, DJ, bouquets, and coordinator. Compared to all of the other venues we looked at, this was such a great price and having these items as part of the package took a huge load off having to look for vendors. All the vendors they set us up with were amazing, and given that we didn't actually choose them, we couldn't have asked for better people to work with all around. In addition to everything running smoothly, the venue itself was just beautiful. We really appreciated having two rooms for the ceremony vs reception so our guests could easily just walk to the next room. The location was also great as downtown Redlands is adorable and made it easy for our guests to continue the party at a restaurant/bar next door. And of course, the gorgeous colorful umbrella alley on the side of the building didn't hurt for photos :)

    My husband and I just got married here (in December) and it was incredible! Our guests talk about how impressed they were with the food, staff and venue. Everything came together so beautifully. The staff there are very polite and accommodating. We worked directly with the owner, Ariell, and she handled it all amazingly! I would definitely recommend the Speakeasy on State for any event.

    This brick wall is stunning for pictures!

    Let me start by saying this venue is even more gorgeous in person! Everything from the brick wall to vintage chandeliers are beautiful elements that makes this venue stand out. Had the pleasure of hosting my June wedding this year and got so many compliments. Dawn and Ariel were such a delight to work with. There whole team there is amazing and the venue prices are so affordable with the amazing space you get. Definitely recommend at least doing a walk through of this venue!

    This venue was so perfect for our micro-wedding. There were great policies in place to keep everyone safe & the staff were incredibly helpful during the entire planning process. Could not have asked for a better venue & team

    We had our beautiful wedding in September 2020 and it was so wonderful for it to feel like a real wedding during the Rona. Our closest family and friends all joined us for our special day and we had such an amazing time. The venue was beautiful and the lighting was gorgeous. Ariell and Callie were great and flexible. They made me relaxed when I was stressed out. Highly recommend the speakeasy!

    Speakeasy on State is a downtown Redlands gem and we are so fortunate to have had our pop-up wedding here! Ariell has such a kind soul and was able to work with our quick, last-minute plans to get married during this pandemic. Our coordinator Callie was a blessing to work with and made sure that the final details came together and that our event ran smoothly. My bridesmaids and I got ready at the Speakeasy office, which is located just a few doors down from the venue itself, making it super convenient! I'm so glad we chose the Speakeasy on State as our venue, as it holds a dear place in my heart - we couldn't have chosen a more perfect place for such a special day in our lives! If you're looking for a beautiful, historic piece of Redlands or a space to have your next party or celebration, then definitely check out Speakeasy on State!

I will start this review off by saying…read morethat I photograph weddings, so having a gorgeous scenic spot to marry my boyfriend/fiancé of 11 years was the #1 on our list and The Pond (+ the overcast weather haha) DELIVERED. And the #2 thing on the list was having a variety of backdrops to photograph against which we also found here no question. We first toured The Pond and met with Bonnie (the owner) back in September 2022. We had already toured 5 other venues and this ended up being our second to last tour and last day of touring. The second I stepped on the premise I knew we had found our place. The venue is absolutely gorgeous, breathtaking, and well taken care of. The pond is also full of bright koi fish and other cute little friends like ducks walk around. I felt like we were already late in booking a 2023 date, but to our luck they had May 5, 2023 open which was also 11th anniversary! Easy and done. This hidden gem venue has charm and is the most unique and scenic venue I've ever been to. The main selling points for us in addition to the views were: 1. Full Bridal and Groom houses to relax and get ready in. We each had 8 bridesmaids and groomsmen + our family so it was very important to us that we could find a place that could accommodate our large party to get ready in. They also have separate parking for the wedding party right next to the Bridal/Groom houses and another larger parking lot for guests which is also free for them 2. Fun and unique areas for all of our guests to spread out and explore. Including the gazebo overlooking the pond, fire pit (for s'mores), and cove underneath the gazebo to experience a waterfall. There was also a ton of space for all our vendors to set up including a Boba Table and Photobooth 3. Affordable price that included 1 hour rehearsal the day before, 10 hours on the premise for the wedding, and our package also included the DJ and Bartender team. This was great because those vendors are already used to working with Bonnie's team and DJ Richie killed our lighting throughout the venue as well! They also set up heat lamps for us when it got colder at night 4. DIY everything! I have been looking forward to planning my wedding my whole life and had a lot of decoration and vendor ideas. Bonnie and our Coordinator team (YourDayYourWay) helped make all our ideas and plans come to life and were gracious about accommodating everything we asked for including keeping the sails down in the ceremony space for our photos, letting us do special cups for boba, and letting us choose our catering (5 Elementos Food Truck). The whole event was 100% customized by us and this was so cool since I know a lot of venues have strict rules they never bend. And for anyone who may be deterred reading this because they don't want to DIY everything, I promise the venue still looks great just as it is even without all the extra stuff. Seriously! 5. They allow sparkler exits! Not many venues in CA allow this and I was stoked they had the perfect spot for it If you happen to stumble upon my review and are wondering if you should book The Pond for your next event/wedding, just do it! :D

The venue is a gorgeous, beautifully kept "hidden gem" with incredible attention to detail.

The staff's expertise was truly top-notch--they were accommodating, professional, and made the entire night run seamlessly. I would highly recommend The Pond for an awesome experience for any type of event.

Don"t trust this place to give you a fair or accurate quote or experience for a wedding reception or a clear enough picture of a great experience or outcome.

We asked for a tour and instead of letting us know they were remodeling prior to our visit and upgrading to unknowns they still walked us around with no clear picture of what was really changing and or happening. When we walked in they didn't know why we were originally there but yet we had an appointment. We were also very disappointed in the quote which was originally hand written with no clear picture or vendor choices and a horrible menu choice for food options, one page pamphlet, etc. We asked for all inclusive in our first visit, which in first quote we thought was written out, but in our second visit they said it wasn't and had to ask for another quote to be emailed. In the 2nd quote it was also an unprofessional layout and not prepared with very little detail and lots of unknowns and no specifics on vendors for fresh flowers or other vendor options as we requested etc.. leaving us very upset, as we will now be looking outside of are area. The highlight we were shown in the 2nd visit was a new lighting feature with flying dolphins which we don't care for in our wedding reception. Very laughable to be honest and unprofessional.

If you are ever in the area (which you definitely should be at some point), stop by this beautiful house. You will genuinely feel as if you are transported in time, it's an ethereal experience. The grounds are gorgeous and secluded, you feel like you should be in Europe. This place is a hidden gem in Redlands, CA. This was the first place I looked at for wedding venues, I couldn't stop comparing everything else I looked at to Kimberly Crest. Once it was booked, Tanya and her team were so on top of managing Venue related wedding necessities from beginning to end. They did such a fantastic job at communicating and promptly replying. They worked with my budget needs and gave me amazing recommendations and ideas for the wedding. They let me come by the venue as much as I needed to. I never felt like I was annoying them (with all of my questions, as a bride usually has), they remained patient and kind throughout the process. The Kimberly Crest House & Gardens team really did go above and beyond for me and my now husband. They took on responsibilities outside of their assigned roles to ensure my wedding day ran as smoothly as possible. I, unfortunately, had entrusted a wedding coordinator that did not meet my expectations and neglected several of her duties. But, Tanya and her team quickly picked up the slack and ensured my day turned out as magical as I ever dreamt it could be. I have so much love for this venue and the team! Don't be afraid to book it for your wedding or any event. I promise, the pictures will turn out stunning - you will feel like a true princess!

Be sure to arrive a little early as they start right on time. The Kimberly Crest House offers reserved tours for small groups, which makes the experience feel more personal. Our docent was incredibly knowledgeable and had even worked closely with the family's descendants, so she shared lots of fascinating and heartfelt stories along the way. While photos and videos aren't allowed inside, the tour includes a walk through the living room, dining room, kitchen, second-floor common area, a remodeled bathroom, and several bedrooms. The interior was beautifully preserved, and the whole house was comfortably air-conditioned, which made the hour-long tour very pleasant. The gift shop is currently under construction, so only pop-up cards were available for purchase during our visit. I do wish we had been able to take photos for keepsakes. This was a lovely example of women's leadership and education throughout history.

I HIGHLY suggest you not book here! Over 10 years ago I had booked what was my wedding ceremony and reception . We had a large guest list but the gentlemen we worked with assured us they'd be able to accommodate our exceptionally large group. We did the tours, had a few walk throughs, signed the contract, put our deposit then when I was going to make my final payment (in person) the gentlemen that was helping us was not there but instead it was a very young rude girl. She denied that we ever booked a reception and that she only had us down for a ceremony. I freaked out being our wedding was only months away. The young lady must have been related to the owner bc it showed in her nonchalant attitude. She kept denying that our contract had a ceremony and reception and that they could do nothing about it bc they have a reception booked on that date and that their must have just been"miscommunication". I explained how we were already working with a gentleman there who even walked us through the venue and showed us how they would set up the reception to accommodate our guest and how we had been in conversation with him and had a contract. We were really shocked and taken back by her denying what we experienced. The best this young lady could do was offer us a refund. What horrible service what terrible lack of integrity on their part, to lie and deny is troubling. Weeks before our wedding they dropped the ball and double booked on our already reserved date and they couldn't be professional about it and admit their error. Then they had the audacity to ask for a letter saying that WE breached the contract. What?! That was ridiculous but after that experience, we didn't even want our wedding ceremony there seeing their poor communication skills, lack of professionalism, lack of integrity and lack of concern just showed us how they would've been on our wedding day. If they couldn't be honest during the process then for sure we wouldn't be able to trust them on our wedding day. The reason I'm posting this over 10 years later is because now (years later) I am just now receiving an email response from them saying that my review on the knot.com is on hold until I can prove payment and contract. I'm baffled at this email, how unprofessional is that? Where have you been the last 10+ years, why respond now? Why are you asking me to provide records and proof when you have them yourself? That's silly that a business can withhold a review because they don't like what it says (the truth about their service) and why all these years later. Why are they just now reviewing reviews of their business? That email proves that they' are still unprofessional and still disorganized and still lack integrity. I'd still never recommend this place to anyone. It was pricey then so I'm sure it's more expensive now. Not worth it. Besides we've learned it's better to invest in an extravagant honeymoon and a starter home for your marriage rather than a one day event that cost a fortune that majority of your guest won't even remember the details and money that you put into it. But that honeymoon, and that investment in your marriage both you and your spouse will remember for a life time. DITCH THIS VENUE there are plenty other cool little hip places you can find at the fraction of the price that are much more creative. Try the hidden oaks wedding venue, super affordable outdoors, historic and hip, great location, excellent service. Peer space app is also a great place to look where you can rent extravagant homes for the day without the "wedding" price tag.

We fully understood that we were responsible for cleaning up at the end of the night and were prepared for that. However, we did not expect to feel watched and pressured while doing so. It was uncomfortable to be closely monitored and repeatedly reminded about how trash bags needed to be tied and boxes broken down before being thrown away. During the ceremony, our flower girl dropped natural rose petals down the aisle -- something many brides choose to include. We were surprised to learn at the end of the night that we were expected to pick up every petal ourselves, outside in the cold and damp grass. Additionally, be aware that if you go even one minute past 11:00 p.m., you will be charged $100 per hour for every hour you exceed the time limit. As beautiful as the venue is, the professionalism and attitude of the staff can truly make or break such an important night. Unfortunately, in our case, it detracted from what should have been a joyful and memorable celebration.
