About

The Lake at Apple Hill is a wedding venue in Placerville, California. Our beautiful event space sits at the feet of towering pine trees, overlooking a private 50-acre lake. This serene location is an intimate place to get married, fitting for the artful soul who is a lover of nature and exquisite things.

Host a Lakeside Ceremony

This El Dorado wedding venue offers space for you to host both your ceremony and reception on its carefully manicured grounds. Exchange vows at the edge of the sparkling lake, letting this tranquil body of water add to the breathtaking moment when you say, “I do”. It is also a popular spot for wedding portraits, with the surrounding woodlands providing striking natural backdrops.

Outdoor Wedding Reception

Afterward, join your guests for an outdoor wedding reception and cocktail reception under an elegant white gazebo, which can be adorned with market lighting. This will prove useful as the sun sets on our outdoor wedding venue and you sit down to your long-awaited wedding meal; the lights above casting a romantic glow on the party below. Enjoy the company of up to 200 guests, with plenty of room for a dance floor. Other popular choices include mobile bar experiences and our furry friends from The Drunken Burro.

Elopement Wedding Venue

The Lake at Apple Hill is equally beautiful for small weddings such as elopements and micro weddings. Our private estate provides the perfect setting for a ceremony and catered dinner with your nearest and dearest! While the convenient location in Placerville offers plenty of nearby accommodations.

Great, highly recommend.

As soon as we saw the venue we knew it was the one. Water, the forest. It was so serene and gorgeous. The coordination staff were excellent. They worked around our schedules and communicated every step of the way. I would do it all over again.

Gorgeous venue, incredible team, all around perfect day.

If you want a jaw-droppingly gorgeous wedding, The Lake @ Apple Hill is IT. My now-husband and I were on the hunt for a beautiful outdoor venue and were so excited to find this hidden gem tucked away in one of our favorite areas, Apple Hill. This venue is stunning from every angle --- from the trees to the lake to the multi-tiered venue itself, it was exactly what we wanted and so much more. Our guests can't stop talking about how it was the most beautiful wedding they'd ever been to! In addition to its picture-perfect scenery, we also loved working with the team at The Lake. Everything ran so smoothly and communication was always quick, clear, and pleasant. Would recommend this venue over and over again!

What more could you want in a wedding venue?!

From a photographer's perspective, The Lake at Apple Hill has it all! Lush evergreens and a beautiful (clean) lake make for the backdrop of this gorgeous venue. Every time we come back, we find new perspectives and ways to showcase all that the property has to offer, which really helps fuel our creativity. We can't wait to be back for the next wedding!
