Cass House Cayucos

Alex, Chef Cory, and the entire team at Cass House was an absolute dream to work with. They answered all of our questions along the way and made for a day that was truly perfect. The property is beautiful even without decor, and everyone RAVED about the food. Seriously, we had multiple friends go to the Hatch in Paso Robles (the sister restaurant that does the catering) the day after the wedding to get the same meal they had at the wedding again! Alex truly felt like a friend throughout the planning process, and made it as enjoyable and stress-free as possible. She was so warm, kind, and communicative, I'd love it if she could plan my entire life for me! All that to say, Cass House was absolutely worth every penny, and all of our friends and family had nothing but wonderful things to say about the wedding.

tl;dr - If you’re looking for an intimate wedding venue and an all-star vendor team, stop whatever you’re doing and book a venue tour at Cass House. You won’t regret it!!

My husband and I found Cass House serendipitously. We were looking at other venues in the Central Coast area and wondered if The Hatch, one of our favorite restaurants in Paso Robles, was available to cater. Instead, we discovered that The Hatch is the exclusive caterer for Cass House and our curiosity led us to the small, quaint beach town of Cayucos. Everyone seems to know everyone in Cayucos, and the family-oriented vibe is exactly what drew us into Cass House. Friends become family here.

Cass House is so dreamy with a lot of charm and character; the beach is also right across the street. Estero Bluffs is less than a 5 minute drive away and the perfect location for sunset photos. The venue is the perfect setup for a wedding during COVID since both the ceremony and reception areas are all outdoors. We had a total of 58 guests and we all felt very safe. Our guests appreciated that our events were at the same place; most of them booked hotels in Cayucos and loved having the option of walking to the venue. It’s a naturally beautiful venue that doesn’t need much to dress it up, and really comes alive at night.

We highly recommend working with Alex Fuss, wedding planner extraordinaire. We had to cancel our first wedding in Portugal due to COVID, but Alex put all of our fears, worries and concerns about planning a second wedding at ease from the moment we first exchanged emails. She is an incredibly empathetic, genuine and overall gem of a human being. Throughout the planning process, she was very communicative, thoughtful and supportive about our ideas. Alex is determined to give you the wedding of your dreams and remove all the stress that comes associated with planning a wedding. She worked with us closely to incorporate small details that were meaningful to us on our wedding day, and made everything feel so easy. I will never forget the image of her chasing down the Harmony Valley Creamery ice cream truck on Cayucos Ave because they were lost and late to our welcome event -- pure dedication on her part! It's been two weeks since our wedding at Cass House and I'm missing our regular interactions dearly.

The two added bonuses of choosing this venue include getting to work with The Hatch for catering and Bijou Bakery, the on-site bakery at Cass House, for our cake. As expected, the food did not disappoint. From our extensive tasting to customizing our menu, Chef Cory really understood and valued our love of food and turned our ideas into a reality. Our guests could not stop raving about how amazing the food was and everyone said it’s the best wedding food they've ever had. It’s still something we all talk about to this day! Our wedding cake from Bijou Bakery was also a dream. Jeniece and her team did an amazing job creating the cake (vanilla with vanilla buttercream frosting - so simple but so good!) and we loved getting treats delivered every morning we stayed at Cass House. :)

We also highly recommend the rest of our all-star vendor team: Meg's Marvels Photography, Brooke Edelman Floral Design, DJ Malik Miko, and The 805 Booth. Each one made our wedding night incredibly special. I wish I could relive that night over and over again!
