    Beautiful Venue!

    We are so happy we went with La Cuesta Ranch for our venue! Gabriel is so accommodating and went above and beyond to make our wedding special. He made our lives so much easier by providing tables, chairs, furniture, lawn games, lighting options, decor and more! This venue comes with so much that you really get your money's worth. We instantly fell in love with the charm of the ranch and the ceremony site. At night, when the lights above the reception area light up, it's truly magical. The best part was sunset photos! Gabriel took us & our photographers up the hills for sunset. It was my favorite part of our wedding. Our guests loved our venue and Gabriel! We couldn't have been happier with our decision.

    We loved La Cuesta Ranch

    La Cuesta ranch was an easy venue choice. Not only are you booking a beautiful location, but you also have included extras such as: tables, chairs, decor (including altars, chandeliers, signs, center pieces, and more), on-site bathroom, golf cart shuttle from parking to ceremony, and more. The best “extra” included would be venue owner Gabriel. Gabriel is invaluable. He responds quickly to emails, is very resourceful, and is easy to trust. He genuinely cares about the bride’s day but will also tell you the truth in any part during the planning process to ensure that the day will go smoothly. Day of the wedding, he also drives you two miles into the ranch in his four wheel cart for sunset photos; and these pictures are absolutely stunning.
    To note, he does have some ground rules but they’re fair: venue not responsible to set up/break down tables and chairs, no hard alcohol (but you can have two signature drinks), and slo safe ride must be hired. Overall, we loved having our wedding here and got so many compliments on our venue choice.

    Perfect day

    I don’t even know where to start Gabriel and his family exceeded every expectation we had on our wedding day! From picking out the venue to every single venue visit to rehearsal dinner he was always very accommodating and helped in anyway he could. Our wedding day was absolutely beautiful every guest could not stop talking about how beautiful the venue was. The highlight of our wedding day was for sure our sunset photos where Gabriel took us to the top of the golden rolling hills where we got the MOST PERFECT sunset photos ever. I I cannot have asked for a better wedding day. Don’t walk RUN to book la Cuesta ranch for your wedding venue!
