If I had the opportunity to do it all again, Pacific Hills would be one of the choices I would happily repeat for my wedding. When my husband and I got engaged, the first thing we did was to visit and compare reception sites both in Orange County and Northern California. Pacific Hills will arrange every detail of your wedding if you so choose, from your ceremony, to food, to tables and chairs, tablecloths and napkins. My husband and I were heavily limited on our wedding by budget, and with David's help, we were able to create my dream wedding without having to compromise because of budget. One of the best features of Pacific Hills is customization!

We used the platinum package, which basically gives you all of their services at a specific rate, including tables, chairs, basic drinks, tablecloths, napkins, silverware, glasses, china, the wedding cake, cheese and crackers, hors d'eourves, and wine on the tables.

We went with the buffet with three entree choices, giving us a total of three salads, three entrees, two sides, and rolls. You aren't able to taste the food before the wedding due to the fact that Pacific Hills makes their own food in large quantities for events only, but I can give you a quick breakdown of what we liked and didn't like.

The hors d'eourves were probably what we got the most praise for. We chose the mushroom salad on blinis and the beef wellingtons. There was a huge abundance of hors d'eourves, which I was surprised by, seeing as several weddings I've been to have skimped on hors d'eourves. The chicken breast with the champagne sauce was the biggest hit of the night. The roasted red potatoes were probably the worst, and given another choice I'd probably go with mashed potatoes instead.

Onto the service and my personal experience. David was great and was very helpful throughout the entire process. Although we were a bit indecisive at first, David was always patient with us. David consistently worked with us to make our reception exactly what we wanted, even though we were on a budget. Our family makes their own wine, and with the platinum package David allowed us to replace the two bottles of wine on the table provided with two bottles of our own wine, and allowed us to stock the rest at the bar with no corkage fee. The other venue we considered, the Hacienda, wanted to charge us $1,200 in corkage for the same service!

On our day, David was there from the moment we arrived til the moment we left, behind the scenes making sure everything ran smoothly. He made sure that my husband and I got to have some hors d'eourves and eat dinner (some brides and grooms are so busy they never get to eat!) Overall, we really enjoyed our wedding at Pacific Hills and would do it all again if we could!
