Perfect wedding venue for an off-the-beaten-path wedding

My partner and I wanted to get married in fall 2022... like many other couples. Venue options were limited given this was the busiest wedding year on record, so we had to get creative. This was a blessing in disguise since it led us to Ocotillo! We were looking for a space that was laid back, fun, yet with an elevated elegance and great food/drinks (a non-negotiable). Ocotillo delivered above and beyond on each of those fronts. Steve on the events team was amazing to work with - super responsive and helpful. We heard from multiple guests the food was the they've ever had at a wedding. The venue also made a beautiful backdrop for photos. We took family portraits before/after the ceremony and the previews came out amazing. The green trees in the outdoor space make for an incredible frame in the photos! Bonus: because the space already has a lot of ambiance, we didn't need to add much decor - just some florals and a couple other pieces to bring it all together, but very minimal compared to other venues.

I went to a wedding here around the Holidays, and I was completely mesmerized. The lighting and atmosphere of this place was incredible. The welcoming staff was so friendly, hospitable, and helpful. They made me feel like they really cared about the experience of the wedding party. The events manager was top notch at executing all the transactions from ceremony through the lavish dinner. The food was the best I have ever had a wedding. No resort does food quite so deliciously. Their service was flawless, as well. The bartenders made fantastic drinks, and I everyone had such a great time it was hard to believe a restaurant could execute such a spectacular event.

I can't possibly write a review to express how perfect my wedding at Ocotillo was. Steve and his team made us feel like family and gave attention to every detail. Two things that are a testament to their efforts: 1. Our guests are still talking about the food and the service. Every time we see friends and family it comes up not just that the wedding was fun but either "That space was so beautiful" or "My steak was delicious and perfectly cooked, how did they do that with so many people?!" or "The servers were so friendly and they knew my drink and even brought me one on the dance floor!" 2. Since our wedding several guests have gone back for dinners, drinks and celebrations of their own. Pretty cool to know that Ocotillo will become a place our friends go to and think about our wedding every time!

Steve helped us create a great menu and was so flexible with our requests. He really shared in our vision of the night and he and his team executed every detail with professional grace and attentiveness. I never once looked at something and thought 'that's wrong, it should be..." If anything, things were even better than I had imagined.

Huge thank you to the entire team at Ocotillo- its clichéd but it truly was the best night of my life, in part to all of your efforts and talents!
