Highly recommended. Bertha and her staff made our wedding very special. Our guests could not believe how pretty the venue is. Our outside ceremony under the arbor was perfect. The food was great, the bartender knew his business and there were no surprises. Lots of people have told us that our wedding was one of the best they have ever attended. Shirley and Scott

Hi Scott, thank you so much for your review. It was a pleasure hosting such a wonderful event.Amanda · Married on 10/10/2015
I am beyond thrilled that we picked Los Encinos for our venue. Bertha was amazing through the whole planning process and made me feel like I was in good hands even when I didn't have a wedding planner. During the wedding we got so many compliments about how beautiful our venue was (which it was!). We had about 150 guests and everyone fit perfectly. There are a few big reasons why I went with this venue and why I would recommend it to other couples. First is the price. I contacted and looked at countless venues before deciding on Los Encinos. I had fallen in love with a few others then found out details like they didn't set up or you had to supply just so many things. Los Encinos was the best priced for what you get. They also come with so much which is incredibly helpful. The venue is basically a one stop shop. They do the decorations (though you can pay to get more decorations), they do the setup, the food (which was VERY tasty and we got a lot of compliments), and they have just so many other little details you may not think about until you are breaking the bank buying (like the plates and napkins and the table cloths). When looking at venues I also wanted to know the rain options. This is definitely a beautiful place to get married outdoors but I wanted to see where we would be getting married if it rained. This one would be in front of really pretty floor to ceiling windows. Besides all of that, I think it all ran very smoothly and the wedding was more perfect than I could have asked for!
