Any bride that has their wedding at The Bella Collina will say nothing but "My Day Was Perfect!!" The guests will be in awe over how polite and attentive the staff is and have nothing but a great time. You will be beyond just pleased. Karen Smiley is an awesome phenomenal coordinator and will make the day flawless. No stress No chaos, just pampering and being well taken care of. I Love her and the staff, the atmosphere is warm and genuine and the grounds are stunning and unique for all your enjoyment and photographs.
Karen and staff at the Bella Collina Golf Club are very professional and attentive to your needs on your Big Day. The venue itself is one of my favorites to pickup Brides and Grooms, in our 1939 American Rolls Royce Packards for their takeaways. The venue has amazing views, its spacious, and no real sound restrictions. One of San Clementes' best kept secrets for weddings, special events, and golf ! Remember to mention the Special Venue discount on the Classic Takeaway, when booking the venue at Bella Collina Golf Club for your Special Day!
