August Wedding

Cottonwood & Oriana we’re perfect! We couldn’t have been more happy or impressed with our special day. We planned our wedding in just a month with Oriana, the event manager, and everything was stunning. Cottonwood provided a beautiful scenic backdrop for the start of our forever and staff was exceptional. I would definitely recommend getting married here.

Awesome Wedding Venue

We booked Cottonwood Canon Winery for our wedding in June of 2021. Oriana was our venue coordinator and she did an excellent job when it came down to answering all of our questions and making sure everything was being planned smoothly, especially since there were a lot of things that had changed on multiple occasions due to the pandemic. The venue is absolutely beautiful and we loved the backdrop we had for our wedding ceremony. The reception was down near their wine caves and the staff did a great job helping us get everything set up. We were able to use the venue as our rehearsal dinner location as well, which turned out to be a beautiful evening on the wine terrace! The wine at the venue is just okay, but they had an amazing all inclusive wedding bar package that included multiple beer options for our guests as well! Overall, we are incredibly happy to have been able to have our wedding at such a beautiful place and can’t wait to come back and visit on our anniversaries!

I've documented many wedding at CottonWood Canyon Winery, the venue its simply fantastic and very unique, very different from what you can get from other wineries in the central coast area. The caves add an amazing touch to all the images, the amphitheater its the perfect scenario for a ceremony with the valley as a background. The coordination service at Cottonwood its always on point, I love working with professional vendors who are always there to help out the bride & groom, the guests and also other vendors. Danielle manages the event coordination like a Pro, she is never late and always help me create a perfect timeline for pictures and locations. I Love working there.
