If you are looking to have a picture perfect wedding, Calamigos is it! I knew my special day was going to be beautiful but it turned out to be magical.
The people at Calamigos were great to work with, special Maria. It was a bit of a shock that we couldn't taste the food prior to the event, but come to find out the day of the even that the food was absolutely delicious. I would highly recommend you go see Calamigos before you make any plans for your wedding. Everything turned out to be perfect.

Calamigo's Ranch is an absolutly beautiful venue. Everyone said our wedding was "Magical" The grounds are parklike with lights in every tree & hugh waterfalls. Maria, our consultante was so hepful and quick to respond to our needs. The whole event went smoothly, just too fast.

This place was very accomodating and all went off with out a hitch. They have a small staff and each say they can help you. I highly recommend sticking with the same person throughout the process.

The location is BEAUTIFUL and the staff is very nice, however they have fairly strict rules about what is and isn't allowed--and be prepared to pay if you want to bring anything in. They do have cottages at the site that you can rent overnight which is definitely a plus if you have out of town guests or friends and family you want to keep close by.

Everyone that works there is very helpful and patient. i called a million times and asked a million questions and never did i feel like i was bothering anyone. They are very professional and i have no regrets!

We were very happy with Calamigos. There was literally only one mistake on the day of and it was a minor thing that nobody else even noticed. We had a great time! Our guests were so impressed with how spectacularly beautiful the location is. We have recieved many compliments! The staff is super helpful and very experienced. They were very flexible and didn't try to throw in bogus cake cutting fees or any of that other nonsense other places try to pull! Watch the dates on your paperwork, sometimes they don't jive with what they tell you in the office.

From the first time I visited Calamigos Ranch until my wedding day, I continued to be impressed with this venue. This was the first venue I looked at and despite visiting a few other locations, I knew this is where I would get married. Calamigos Ranch is a gorgeous location that has a magical feel to it. We chose to get married at THE OAKS, which features an outdoor ceremony and indoor reception. I cannot say enough about this venue. The staff is courteous and friendly and the day of coordinator was SO helpful! While this can be a pricey location, the value for the cost is worth it - The only thing I had to worry about was cake, officiant, flowers, music and photographer. It was SO nice to be able to enjoy my wedding day and not have to worry about all the little details. I would certainly recommend this venue to anyone getting married or having any other event.

Absoulutly perfect! Just off of the Beach of Malibu, resting in the beautiful trees is Calamigos Ranch. Surrounded by waterfalls, pathways, and lush greenery. This was a our DREAM wedding. The services where all included and I have to say that I didnt' find out about anything going wrong.......the people at Calamigos made sure that my husband, and I and OUR guests where taken care of before and the day of the wedding. Anything we needed....grab the bouquet> They where on it!! and Such good food!! The appetizers, especially the crispy ravioli, was so tasty and all of our guest kept raving about their meals..... such a pleasant experience and compared to the prices around the Los Angeles County area, a much better deal as well.

Calamigos Ranch was an incredible venue for our big day! You could not have asked for better service, food and surroundings. Every member of the staff was first class! The only negative was on our overnight accomodations.
The cabins and cottages are described as rustic, however, it was our experience that they were in need of renovations.
Some of our wedding guests were able to stay at The Four Seasons Hotel for the same price, so it would seem that for accomodations you can fare better elsewhere.

Calamigos Ranch has built a reputation for excellence, and this reputation is fully warranted! The staff was incredibly helpful and professional and truly cared about us as people. Our Maitre d' was incredible-- she coordinated much of the evening with grace and wisdom, making sure that we ate and checking to ensure that we hadn't left anything behind. We loved her! The ceremony coordinator (yes, they have a ceremony coordinator which is included in the price!) was incredibly professional, hilarious, and thoughtful. She helped to ease our nerves. Our wedding was in the Garden Patio/Main Dining Room, both of which were absolutely magical. Strongly recommended.

Calamigos was the best choice of venue! It is a gorgeous site and the staff knows exactly what to do - which was especially helpful because I was planning my wedding from San Diego. They go above and beyond; for example, I was winging it with the cake table. I set out two cakes on cake stands, with two more to go in the back for Calamigos to cut & serve and paid the florist to decorate the cake tables how she saw fit. When I picked up the cakes, they were much prettier than I expected, but just stayed the course. Calamigos put all of the cakes out, tiered them, and the florist decorated the table. It was GORGEOUS! It was wonderful to trust the professionals and for them to deliver.
I highly recommend Calamigos Ranch. You will not be disappointed!

We had a wonderful wonderful experience with Calamigos! They answered all of our questions clearly and promptly. They worked with us to incorporate our traditions into our wedding ceremony and reception. They swiftly corrected any minor problems that arose without disrupting my and my family's time during the wedding. Our wedding was truly the best day our of lives!

The venue itself is beautiful and the food was really quite delicious and generous in its size. However, the staff are disorganized and don't care much if you need anything. I had labeled every box that I personally delivered there and they managed to royally screw up where things were supposed to go. Also, they didn't seem to care that things were disorganized and not on schedule. Finally, we rented a cottage there to use for babysitting and when we checked in, the room was dirty - beds with soiled linens, food all over the place. When they did finally clean it up, we had left the food for the kids in there and found that someone from their staff actually ate the food (as in, a piece of pizza was missing!). I would not recommend this place for its service. If you love the setting, just make sure you get your own wedding planner to aggressively direct their staff.
