Sequoyah Country Club

Ah where do I start - Sequoyah (and Andrea / Sally) made our dream wedding come true! It was the perfect venue, and super reasonably priced!

I came across Sequoyah while searching Here Comes the Guide - we were looking for a place that wasn't "insanely expensive" and that would be convenient to the Bay Area. Andrea was very responsive when we scheduled a tour (and tasting) and I immediately fell in love with the giant windows, the Spanish tile, the terrace doors, and the vine-covered garden walls. And that was just after our first interaction. I was soon to learn that unlike other places, where they set ALL the super strict rules and everyone else revolves around them, Sequoyah really goes above and beyond to advise and develop your perfect event. Just the level of service alone seemed better than venues that cost 3x as much, and I truly feel like booking with them was the best decision we made for our wedding.

Over the next few months, it was like having two fairy godmothers - we'd hesitantly ask - hey we're thinking of ordering in Boba, or my fiance has a specific fish recipe for dinner, can we have napkins in fan shapes, or we can't find a hotel for our parents, or even I want to plan a small surprise for my fiance but it involves coordinating a bunch of people in secret - and always within a day, we'd get a resounding answer or often "yes, let me arrange it for you" accommodating our questions so graciously, no matter how ridiculous we felt asking. We changed our minds about whether to hold the cocktail hour indoors or outdoors and whether to book the fancy chairs (do it) the week of the wedding, and they were totally unfazed - Andrea and Sally and their teams were clearly pros.

Day of, all of our asks were realized way better than we could have even imagined. We were even able to bring up all our decor and store it the bridal suite the night before and do a quick practice run. The bridal suite was available starting the morning of, so we didn't have schedule hair and makeup elsewhere. The food was great - when they first offered to handle the boba I was skeptical, but the guests LOVED it. The lamb chop apps never made it far out the door because of adoring fans (though Andrea thoughtfully sneaked a whole plate to the bridal suite). Andrea, who was always just a delight to be around and super supportive and encouraging turned out to also be a magician, doing everything from golf cart driving to salad serving, and even supporting our day of coordinator who had been switched in by a vendor last minute due to COVID issues. Everything was perfect and she handled it with such grace and ease.

I can't recommend them enough. I'm only hoping for more life events to celebrate with them. Thank you for being awesome!

We could not have chosen a better venue than Sequoyah Country Club. After visiting many other properties, we fell in love with Sequoyah the second we entered the grounds. We were fortunate to have decent weather, allowing us to use the outdoor space overlooking the course for our ceremony and giving our guests glimpses of the bay. The size and layout of the facilities, as well as the sense of history from the architecture and décor lent to the perfect setting for our reception. We loved the towering redwood trees and massive oaks, which were featured in many of our wedding photos. We couldn’t have asked for a better staff at the event. The service was very smooth and professional, and our guests’ needs were quickly accommodated. The food was delicious, and the serving sizes were very generous. We were pleasantly surprised with the alcohol options that were made available to us for our service, as were our guests. But most importantly, our experience with management from our first visit until the final second of our night was fantastic. Andrea and Sally were a joy to work with, and their years of experience showed in both the preparation for our event and their work the day-of. We would absolutely recommend Sequoyah to anyone who is planning a wedding, or any type of special event.
