Hidden Gem

What an absolute gem. Between the dreamy garden settings, the breadth of spaces you have to use, the freedom to choose your vendors, and the incredible staff this is truly an exceptional wedding venue. We needed a space with good indoor outdoor flow that would provide a full rain option if needed (given our guest count) and this more than fit the bill. And the best possible bonus - Angela!!! She manages the venue and can be booked as your day-of coordinator (which I HIGHLY recommend). Her calm presence, positive demeanor, and mastery of events in her space truly set our day apart. It was truly a dream come true to find such a perfect location to make our own. If you want to really customize your vision for a reasonable price and just have FUN on your wedding day book them now!!!

Absolute dream venue!

Coto Valley Country Club was our dream venue! After touring tons of options, we had the best feeling about Coto Valley just pulling up to the venue. It is a gorgeous property, the staff are friendly, and the ability to bring in pretty much any vendor sold us completely.

We decided to use Angela as our coordinator, and she was the best. She made our planning process so much smoother, and being able to text her throughout planning helped a ton. Every time we met with her, she solved any problem we had or walked us through the typical process. Angela let me share my own ideas and change things around as I wanted, which was so appreciated!

The getting ready rooms here are gorgeous, the venue is spacious, the flexibility was unmatched, and our day was absolutely PERFECT! Plus there are tons of spots for photos to be taken! We couldn’t be happier with Coto Valley Country Club!

The Perfect Wedding Venue

Coto Valley Country Club was the wedding venue of our dreams! My husband and I toured dozens of venues before visiting this one. The moment we visited Coto Valley Country Club and met Angela, we knew this was the venue for us. The venue is gorgeous and the staff are friendly.

Angela was a wonderful coordinator; she's quick to respond and attentive to details. During the stressful months of planning, whenever we met up with Angela, my husband and I would feel more at ease knowing she would take care of our day. Our wedding day was so beautiful and perfect. My husband and I, along with our bridal party got ready at the venue (the getting-ready rooms are incredibly spacious). There were plenty of beautiful spots to take photos. We couldn't be happier with Coto Valley Country Club!

We loved this place!

I had the best, intimate (covid) wedding here. My husband and I are so happy with the outcome and Angela made everything so easy for us as well. She is the best. I would chose this place a million times over everything else and I’m so glad I found it. The trees and the ambiance is perfect and my guests loved it as well.

We love Coto Valley Country Club

My name is Eric and I own an entertainment company by the name of Extreme DJ Service. The Coto Valley Country Club is a preferred venue that we have had the privilege of working at for many years. If you are looking for a beautiful venue, great food along with professional service… look no further, CVCC is the place. We highly recommend the venue and their staff.

Greatt venue with a lot of flexibility!

Coto Valley Country Club was the perfect venue for our wedding! It was beautiful and spacious, providing a lawn area for the ceremony and pictures, an area for an outside cocktail hour and two other outside areas including one with a fireplace for our guests to mingle and enjoy. The inside reception area was roomy and very cute with a rustic elegant charm. It also was very spacious with a separate dancing area that was perfect to hold our live band. The venue had several decorations from previous weddings that we were able to use free of charge. Angela Sohie, the venue manager and our day of coordinator was personable, professional and fun to work with. She always made time for our questions and made a lot of great suggestions. She did a fabulous job keeping the wedding and reception flowing smoothly. We highly recommend Coto Valley and Angela. Our wedding was a dream and turned out perfectly in a most beautiful setting.

Beautiful Coto Valley Wedding!

First of all, this venue is A DREAM. It is beautifully landscaped, impeccably manicured and maintained, and is filled with sweet details that make it the perfect place to hold a wedding. I fell in love with the venue moments after seeing it! Also, Angela Sohie from Coto Valley Country is everything that a wedding coordinator should be and more! She is kind, relatable, funny, organized, professional, and comforting. Before meeting her, I really didn’t think that I would need to hire a wedding coordinator, but I am so glad that I did. She had AWESOME (seriously – they were the dream team!) recommendations for wedding vendors, and she made the entire wedding planning process flow quite smoothly. Also, for all the help and peace of mind that she gave me, her fee was remarkably good. I’m not sure my wedding day could have been half of what it was without Angela’s expertise and guidance. As far as wedding coordinators go, she’s among the best! The rest of the team at Coto Valley (especially Henry) is also amazing! They are hard-working and really know what they’re doing. Start to finish, our entire wedding day (and the days leading up to it) flowed so smoothly. I am so glad that we chose to get married at Coto Valley Country Club!

Nothing Short of Amazing

I can NOT say enough about this venue. It is everything that I dreamed of for my wedding. Vintage chic and indoors without feeling stuffy and BEAUTIFUL outdoor patios with twinkle lights! Angela, the wedding coordinator, has been nothing short of amazing. This venue has allowed me to have the wedding of my dreams without breaking the bank. We can bring in our owner alcohol and catering! She always gets back to me quickly, is super flexible and really makes you feel so special. She even let me vent to her when I thought I was texting my sister in law and her response was so good! haha I can NOT wait to get married here!

All that and more

The venue was everything! We were looking for a place where we could bring in our own vendors (mainly for food, my husband is picky). Coto Valley afforded us beautiful scenery, props, and the freedom to make the space our own. The coordinator, Angela, was the very best. She encouraged my wild imagination and was willing to help in any way needed. Believe me, I called and came by often and I do not live close. On the day of the wedding, she was great. Angela jumped in right with my friends to ensure my vision came to life. Thank you Coto Valley Country Club. Oh! I have to give a shout out to HENRY. He helped me tremendously too.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
