Wedding paradise

I absolutely had to leave a review. I had my wedding here May 7, 2022. And it was absolutely breathtaking and beautiful. The property itself makes you feel like you’re in your own paradise. My guest we’re so in love with the venue. They were just raving about it all day and even afterwards. So many places to take beautiful pictures. And I love that it’s already so pretty that you don’t need to overdo it with the flowers because there’s already flower and greenery everywhere. But the one thing that absolutely makes this venue stand out above everyone else is Laura. She is the property manager but she is also a coordinator if you decide to hire her. No questions asked you should definitely hire her. Her and her team made my wedding absolutely amazing and go down without a hitch. The whole time leading up to my wedding which was almost a year process she always stayed in communication with me anytime I had a question she would respond right away. Anytime I wanted to go see the property she would make time. But the day of was perfect. No stress at all on me or my groom she took care of everything. And she also has a giant room with a bunch of decorations that makes life so much easier. I gave her so much credit for how much patient she had. But even my guests and husband loved her! If I can do wedding planning all over again I would definitely have her on my team. The whole staff is absolutely amazing and sweet. If you’re looking for a venue this is definitely the spot. Also the food is so amazing. Laura get ready for my five year anniversary because we are definitely going to have to have it there. Thank you for everything.

EXCELLENT Wedding Venue and Team to work with :)

Selecting Rancho de las Palmas for our wedding venue was an easy decision for my husband and I to make! Besides being an absolutely gorgeous location with great photo spots throughout the property (our guests loved exploring the scenery of the venue), Rancho de las Palmas has an excellent team to work with to guarantee a stress-free and successful wedding day! Laura and her team are incredibly friendly, personable, and professional. They were great to work with from start to finish: from the first tour of the property to the final hour of our wedding day! Laura and her team took time to pay extra attention to all the tiniest details that mattered to my husband and I (timeline-wise, décor-wise, etc.) in order to execute our dream wedding! The day itself (and even the wedding preparation and planning) flowed smoothly thanks to her expertise and coordination. My husband and I knew we didn’t need to worry at all about our special day because it was in great hands with Laura and her team! 😊

Beautiful, spacious venue!

We cannot say enough good things about having our wedding at Rancho De Las Palmas. We just got married in June and the grounds were flourishing and looked beautiful. We loved all the different areas for our ceremony, cocktail hour and reception. Laura and the team were wonderful to work with too. Laura met with us multiple times throughout our planning process, let us bring our families to tour the grounds and was always willing to answer any questions we had. The pay it forward room was a blessing for small items and Laura’s team did a wonderful job setting up all our décor the day of our wedding. We had everything labeled and talked about where we wanted it the week before, and they ran with it, not having to reach out to us once. Highly recommend RDLP!

One of the most beautiful and diverse locations you could ever choose to get married at. At least THREE completely different areas with different set-ups on site, a unique banquet hall in the center, and of course the amazing pond with fountains of water shooting up, wildlife, and trees with some real character. Laura is terrfic, and you can't go wrong with Cliff or any one of his DJs/MCs. One of my favorite places to film.

Photographing weddings at Rancho De Las Palmas is a great experience. Beautiful grounds, Nice big dressing room for the bridal party and tons of pretty lights over the pond look awesome at night.
