My daughter recently was married at The Meadows By Forty Eleven and I must say, had we had a choice…read moreto change the venue 24 hours before the wedding, we would have. 7 months before the wedding date, I along with several members of our family, met with the owner (along with my daughter and her groom). The place was really rough and worn down however he assured us of all the changes and improvements that would be completed before the wedding, including a bridal house and the main house with 5 bedrooms, landscaped, weeds gone, barn painted and refurbished etc.... He even suggested where to have the music and ceremony. We rented the property from Friday to Sunday. When we arrived, my heart sank, my daughter cried. I was immediately embarrassed for my daughter, her soon to be husband and even for myself. The place was still run down and dirty. The little landscaping that was there looked as if it hadn't been watered since the last rain - most was dead or dying.. The weeds were waist high on most of the property. The barn was filthy and disgusting. The bridal suite was open walls with power tools inside and could not be used. The 5 bedroom main house for the bridal party was actually a 3 bedroom house with spoiled old food in the fridge and some guy who was visibly high hanging out in the living room.. Thankfully we showed up the day before the wedding: My grandsons picked up 4 large contractor size trash bags of garbage strewn about the outside of the barn. My oldest daughter had some of her staff come help with cleaning the barn and mopping the barn floor. My soon to be son in law and his father had to remove the windows from the barn as they were a safety issue with cracks and holes in the glass. (We put them back on Sunday) The owner and his girlfriend / "employee" were quite rude and did nothing to remedy the situation and was actually angry that we removed the barn windows. This whole event gets worse, but not wanting to write a novel I will just say, stay away. Or at the very least have a back up venue in mind. These people have no business in the wedding business. Thankfully, the partner who lives in Oakland refunded my daughter. But honestly, we would have preferred not to have a refund and just have been given the experience we were promised.

Nichole is amazing! I had the opportunity to visit The Meadows and it is absolutely beautiful. I…read morethink one of my favorite things about this location is that it is so close to everything yet not in the hustle and bustle of town giving you the perfect feel for your wedding. The venue is on such a large stretch of property and there are so many places to have different parts of the wedding. Whether it be exchanging your vows beneath trees, cocktail hour or dancing in the cute barn or eating under the perfect market lights and incorporating the barn as a back drop, it's beautiful. (Did I mention the huge amount of parking availability?) The house that is made accessable to us on the property is beautiful and you can tell that a lot of time and effort was put into the renovations, it's gorgeous! I'm also so excited for the bridal bungalow it is a great place for me and my ladies to relax and get ready for the wedding. My fiance and I are excited that we have chosen The Meadows as our venue and we will be getting married there fall of next year and we can't wait! Thank you Forty Eleven!

Premiere Event Rentals SAVED MY WEDDING!! I had originally rented just a small portion of items…read morefrom them for my wedding (glassware) and had the majority of my rentals for my wedding from another local company, Settings. The day before the wedding the other company, Settings, totally dropped the ball & failed to deliver what I had ordered (no linens, cocktail tables, or rectangular tables). My event coordinator called Premiere Event Rentals at the very last minute (literally 10pm the night before my wedding) and they came through with all of my missing items. I cannot thank them enough for going above and beyond the call of duty to make sure we had what we needed to have a beautiful event. I am forever grateful and would recommend them to anyone!

While this was their first Celebration of Life service, they did a fabulous job of reassuring us that everything was in order. When you are suffering from a loss, that type of assistance is a true gift. They transformed a plain looking hall into a beautiful setting. We assisted them with the set up and they were appreciative. They were helpful in helping us find the caterer and bartender set up. It was worth it to not have to worry about the event set up and take down. We were able to focus on the service itself and the place looked so perfect. Thank you ladies for making it special. Would highly recommend the Three B's in helping you plan your perfect event.

We used them for two events and they were late to the first event, showing up late with the desserts for the night. With the second attempt being a wedding of a large amount of desserts... disappointing.

Would not recommend due to quality and communication.

This was a absolutely stunning property. I attended a wedding there yesterday and was extremely…read moreimpressed by the beautiful area were weddings were held. Ponds, streams, little bridges, beautiful blooming flowers, lots of greenery, plenty of room for guests to park, stage area and dance area. Beautiful view of surrounding mountains, and horse pastures with horses grazing. I was told you could rent the houses for weekends at the bottom of the mountain. (Like a dude ranch experience). I'm sure they have lots more amenities that I don't know about. I was told they do have a website if someone finds this review useful. I was extremely impressed with this property. The amount of beautiful areas would make a great wedding for anyone. I know for Justin and Jen it was absolutely beautiful and amazing.

Deloro Valley is hard to describe until you've actually been there. It's 130+ acres tucked into the…read moreSierra foothills and somehow feels like its own little world. You can spend the afternoon by the pool, wander through the property, catch the sunset from the Upper Village, sit in the wood-fired sauna, and end the night dancing somewhere you didn't even realize existed when you arrived. What makes Deloro really special is the character and heart behind it. You can feel how much love, creativity, and hard work has gone into building this place and making it what it is. It's a little wild, constantly evolving, and has a kind of magic that creates lasting memories. Every wedding, festival, retreat, or gathering takes on a life of its own here. There really isn't another place quite like it.

We worked with Erin Betts Events for our August vineyard wedding in Murphys, CA and could not have…read morebeen happier with our experience. Erin provided full-service planning for our wedding and was incredibly professional, responsive and detail-oriented. We were living in New York City and planning to hold the wedding at my family's vineyard in Murphys, so we needed someone on the ground who really knew the area and vendors and could communicate concepts and logistics efficiently over phone and email, as well as make the most out of limited in-person visits. We were so impressed with Erin's ability to perfectly understand our vision, the look and feel we were going for based on just a few phone conversations, two in-person visits and some back-and-forth feedback on Pinterest images. All of that to say, even a just moderate amount of guidance goes very far with Erin. In terms of personality, Erin struck a good balance between being personable/fun/making us feel comfortable and being very focused and getting down to business. She enabled us to enjoy the planning process while also keeping us on track. Erin is also a straight-shooter and will give you a sense of what is do-able and what might need adjusting. In those cases, however, she never seems to say "no", but rather a "what about this approach"...and they are usually really great ideas. On the day of the wedding, Erin and her team were amazing. So patient with guests and moving the schedule along perfectly. Erin runs a tight ship without anyone really noticing--every scheduled piece was totally on-time! During the reception dinner we inevitably would have guests coming up to us, one after the other, to congratulate us and chat, which is expected. As a result, we really weren't eating and needed to move onto the cake cutting or something. Erin, very smoothly, would kindly interrupt and get us back to finish our dinner so that we could move on. I really appreciated that because we as the couple don't really want to cut these conversations short. I would absolutely recommend Erin and her team for events in the area. You won't be disappointed!
