Dream wedding

The Madonna inn is iconic, and from the first time I visited, I knew I wanted to get married there. The staff are all experts, and Kristen was so helpful and responsive! This place is magical, highly recommended!

Pure magic

Got married at the Madonna last year, and it was truly a dream. The cost is also very reasonable. Taylor Carino (banquet/event manager) was so sweet. Grateful I was able to have this experience at such a beautiful, magical, and iconic place. :) If this fits your vibe, please go for it.

So Grateful!

I'm so grateful that we chose to host our wedding reception at Madonna Inn. Taylor and her team put so much care, effort, and attention to detail into our reception! She was so helpful and responsive to my questions leading up to it, and they did a wonderful job on the wedding day. All of our guests had a delightful time, and it was more beautiful, lovely, and fun than we could have imagined. It was also one of the most affordable options we found in the area! Most of the set-up and clean up was included, as well as linens, dishes, and other important items. The majority of the price for the reception was for the food (with cake included in the dinner price!), and our whole bill to Madonna Inn was less than what some other local venues charge just to walk onto the property. We also had minimal decorations because the Garden Room is already so beautiful. Thank you so much to the staff at Madonna Inn for all the hard work, kind presence and patience that helped make our day so wonderful!

Dreamiest Wedding!

Madonna Inn provides an iconic CA venue, as well as a fun time for your guests! We had out of state family attend, and they were blown away by literally everything Madonna Inn has to offer. Planning and set-up was seemless and easy. Such a great value for the money!!! Highly recommend!

The Madonna Inn, a perfect wedding venue!

Everyone at the Madonna Inn wanted to make sure our daughters wedding was special. The check in staff. the bartender, and the event team delivered superb personal service and grace. The food, fabulous. The venue, crazy unique and cool. Now it will be the anniversary spot. Better than we'd hoped!

Venue Tour

The tour was wonderful and reasonable. I enjoyed getting proposal budget ideas, and a whole packet I can follow to know how the prices were broken down. I felt comfortable the whole time and well taken care of 🙂

Perfect Venue for the Unconventional Couple

My husband and I had been engaged for a year with no real wedding plans in mind when we decided to spend the weekend at the Madonna for my birthday. My husband and I had such a good time and loved the overall "summer camp for adults" feeling of the place that he suggested we get married there.

We quickly realized what a great plan this was because A. the planning staff there manages the rental of the spaces we needed (we married and had our reception in the Secret Garden and had a brunch the following morning in the Round Room) B. All tables, linens, dishes, glassware and services were included in the booking of the venues and meals C. All of our out of town hotel guests (which was everyone) could stay at the Madonna or nearby and enjoy the grounds of the Inn and mingle with one another.

The coordinators Madison and Kristen were amazing, making sure every detail was clear for each piece of our event and making sure everything ran smoothly. We were elated to not have to be booking all of the separate vendors and that we could have most everything managed by the staff at the Madonna.

The weekend of our wedding was such a fun time with everyone at the Inn and the staff there really went above and beyond to cater to us and provide us with the best service possible and make sure that everything went the way that we wanted.

All of our guests commented about how much they loved the space, the food and the overall energy and everyone could just hang out in guest rooms, by the pool or in the restaurants and bars and never feel like they needed to leave. We were lucky to even include goat yoga, horseback riding and a circus that was on the grounds into activities for our wedding guests. Truly a unique and fun place to get hitched!

PS. Our wedding cakes were amazing!

Absolutely Perfect

The Madonna inn is already such a beautiful and unique location, but the venue, staff and food made our wedding magical. We had so many compliments on our wedding venue (Secret Garden) and our buffet style dinner was phenomenal! The staff was extremely polite and accommodating, would absolutely recommend for anyone planning a wedding!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
