  A dream wedding venue that we will forever remember positively.

  We got married in May 2023 at Spencer's, and we are so glad we chose this venue. We looked at many other venues in the Palm Springs area for our 100-person wedding, and Spencer's was our favorite choice. The location against the mountains is stunning for an outdoor wedding, and the ceremony lawn feels private and breathtaking. The golden hour lasts a little bit longer at Spencer's because it is so near the mountains.
  
  The reception area (the Bougainvillea Room) is even more beautiful than it appears in photos. The rock wall, waterfall, fireplace, candles, and uplighting create a classy and elegant atmosphere. All of the vendors we interviewed were familiar with Spencer's and had worked there before, which made communication and planning much smoother. This is a huge advantage if you do not live in the Palm Springs area.
  
  The food at Spencer's is delicious, as many other reviews have mentioned. Melissa, our wedding coordinator, was a joy to work with. She was attentive and caring, and we were very happy with her.
  
  We highly recommend Spencer's as a wedding venue. It is a beautiful and elegant location with excellent food and service.

  Absolutely perfect and forever grateful!

  Absolutely perfect! We planned a cross country wedding for 40 of our friends and family members. From start to finish Brian & Melissa had our backs and made the experience 100% stress free! They were there for us throughout the entire planning process and executed every detail of the wedding to perfection! The location is undeniably beautiful, the staff was professional, prompt and courteous to our guests and at no point throughout the night did our guests have an empty glass! Food is huge for us, and let me tell you...the food was AMAZING...I mean AMAZING! We still have people telling us that it was one of the best meals they've ever had! We really cant thank the entire Spencer's team enough for making it the most perfect experience and day for us! They really went above and beyond and we will forever be grateful to them for that!

  No better venue or team in palm springs

  Where do I even begin!? It is really difficult to articulate your gratitude and appreciation for the people and establishment behind making our wedding dreams come in a brief review on a website but I’ll do my best. Brian Thorson is an absolute rockstar and a master of his craft. I have never met somebody in events/hospitality so calm, confident, knowledgeable, professional, communicative, attentive… I could go on. Navigating a wedding in the Covid climate is scary and daunting! From my initial out reach via their from my initial outreach via their website, he was immediately responsive and accommodating and made me feel more comfortable with the process. He provided a detailed breakdown of a few different options that were through and easy to comprehend. And let me know that there was flexibility with the final headcount which was a definitely a relief too. Other venues acted like it was pulling teeth to even get a rough estimate and were extremely insensitive and unreasonable regarding Covid. Not Brian and the Spencer’s team!! We corresponded a number of times and before even going to the venue; we knew exactly what we were looking at in terms of costs. The moment I stepped foot on the ground at Spencer‘s, I was immediately floored by the natural beauty of the landscape. The upper lawns and Bougainvillea room are truly a magical space nestled against the mountain. But it was when I met Brian in person, that I knew that this was the venue for us. He immediately put my nerves at ease with his cool confidence and hospitality. Over the course of the 9 months of wedding planning, he promptly responded to all of my emails and phone calls. He made me confident that he and his team would be able to seamlessly execute our wedding vision — enter Melissa White. Melissa worked closely with Brian throughout the process and was an absolute GOD SEND on the day off. Melissa, like Brian, is professional, responsive, and master executer. She has an incredible eye for style and perfectly executed my day-off vision. And she has a crazy keen sense of mitigating issues before they become issues. Our big day went off perfectly and largely in thanks to her. Talk about a boss. Brian and Melissa communicated with all of our vendors and made it possible for us to sit back, relax, and truly enjoy our special day with ease and excitement. I would be remiss if I didn’t mention the food. OMG, the food. Everyone knows wedding food is rarely noteworthy. My husband and I are a big foodies and were pretty floored when we did our tasting. Surely the food couldn’t be as good when prepared for 100 people, right?! Wrong. It looked and tasted A. Maze. Ing. We we so shocked by the number of people who commented on how next level the food was. To say we are appreciative of Brian, Melissa, and the entire Spencer’s team (additional shout out to their amazing, warm, and friendly service staff) would be a serious understatement. My husband and I are forever grateful for them making our wedding an absolute dream. Stop racking your brain; you WILL NOT find a better or more beautiful venue in Palm Springs. Stop reading this and reach out them now. You won’t be sorry.

  March Wedding

  Spencer’s made our dream wedding become reality. I can compliment Brian and Yoanna (and their staff) enough! They were extremely kind, responsive, accommodating and flexible, experienced, and a lot of fun to work with. I had hired a wedding planner before knowing any better and ended barely using her because Brian and Yoanna did a way better job! No need for an additional planner when you have these two on your team! They made planning genuinely fun and I looked forward to our strategy calls or email exchanges.
  
  As for the setting- INCREDIBLE!! I had been going to Spencer’s for years and had no idea how beautiful their event space was behind the restaurant. We barely spent any money on outdoor decor because it is already breath taking! As for the little pieces we brought in, Brian and Yoanna we’re flexible with whatever we wanted to do and even gave us great suggestions to help with flow and enhance our theme. The indoor space was the perfect size for our 140 guests, and a big dance floor, and our 7 piece band. Again, Brain and Yoanna were a huge help with the spacing of tables, colour coordination, and could offer great insight to how the space would feel.
  
  A great surprise was the quality of the food. We obviously loved the food during our testing but when it has to be delivered to 140 guests you likely expect it to be just ok. Not at Spencer’s!! I had multiple guests tell me it was the best meal EVER! And I agreed- I thought as the bride I’d have a couple bites but ended up licking my plate clean. We gave our guests the option to choose the steak, sea bass, and mushroom vegan option. All were to die for and Brian made it all work even with us being 40 min behind schedule!
  
  The entire event went without a hitch and was so enjoyable. I can tell that Brian has a lot of pride with what he does and it shows. A real professional and incredible event coordinator.
  
  Thanks for making our day so special.
  
  Erica + Blake xoxo

  Beautiful venue, amazing location and outstanding food.

  The new Special Events/Catering Director, Brian, started only two months before our wedding, which can make anyone sweat when they’re about to slide into home base, but we cannot imagine our day without Brian there. Our wedding went off without a hitch, the staff was FANTASTIC and I’d also like to keep Captain Diana, so she can organize my entire life every day. In addition, their pastry chef made our cake and it was absolutely gorgeous and delicious. Spencer’s deserves all the stars in the sky!

  Jessica Baliff and the Specer's staff were amazing. From start to finish, they made the wedding planning process simple and the day wedding day itself stress-free. The venue is so special. It has old-school Palm Springs charm, with all the luxuries of a modern venue - and the menu is SO GOOD! This review hardly does Spencer's justice, so I will let my photos do the talking!

  Spencer's is a fantastic, unique environment for a wedding! Everything went so smoothly; from the planning stages to everything on the day of. Ms. Jessica Bailiff is awesome, and runs the venue like a tight ship, but still appreciates the emotional gravity of the day for couple.
  
  We were looking for a unique venue for our wedding of 140 guests - neither of us wanted a cookie-cutter, generic ballroom-style wedding. Spencer's really fit the bill. We loved the mix of outdoor space for the ceremony and cocktails, but indoors for the reception. You can blow your budget with flowers and decor, or simply let the beautiful backdrop of the San Jacinto Mountains speak for themselves. The layout of the indoor space is perfectly suited for a wedding of our size, and allowed one wing of the space to be utilized as a lounge/photo booth area. My friends and family like to drink, so it was also wonderful that the beverage packages were affordable and plentiful!
  
  My one suggestion when considering Spencer's is to pay attention to footwear. The flagstones near the ceremony location are uneven and can pose issues for women in heels. However, with proper planning and caution noted to guests, everyone will be fine. I recommend buying flip-flops in bulk from Amazon (36 pairs in a variety of sizes cost me $100) and making those available to guests. No need to aerate Spencer's lawn or slip on flagstones!
  
  As you can tell from above, we had a great experience and we highly recommend Spencer's.

  Our wedding was a dream come true and I couldn’t have imagined it turning out any other way. This was in part to our wedding venue, Spencer’s Restaurant, and its incredible staff of Jessica, Dianna, Banquet Captain, the catering staff and Daniel from the valet.
  
  We were drawn to the venue for its unique landscape, literally so many different levels to party! And eventually booked Spencer’s because of its unique look, its great and varied catering package and Jessica, the Catering Manager’s, prompt and easy going personality.
  
  Our guests kept on saying how unique of a venue Spencer’s was and were blown away by the food portions how good everything tasted! The double-breasted chicken served during dinner was huge, the desserts from the dessert bar were tasty and the icing on the cake was the late night beef carving station with fries and the ice cream station. Our guests weren’t going home hungry, that’s for sure!
  
  I cannot stop saying good things about Spencer’s Restaurant – From the very detailed and responsive communication from Jessica, to the tasty food, to the reassuring walk-through that Dianna took us through and the assistance she provided during our wedding weekend, to the management of our timeline on the day of and even the genuine care Daniel from valet took with our car. Part of the staff also created a mini replica of our ceremony arch to use as part of the cake display when it was found out that the larger one couldn’t fit inside the room. I was so happy and in shock that they actually took the time to create that!
  
  The staff at Spencer’s Restaurant are true professionals and really go above and beyond to make your day special. Thank you for making our wedding a day we will never forget!

  From the moment we first stepped onto the Spencer's property we had nothing but the most amazing customer service. From Valet, restaurant hosts, Jessica our wedding coordinator and all her staff, we have never seen such quality service as what we received not only on our wedding day, but for the 10 months prior to the wedding once we picked Spencer's as our venue. Can't say enough about Jessica, she was a complete rock star every step of the way. We would recommend Spencer's to anyone!

  Jessica and the whole crew at Spencer's were amazing from start to finish! My wife and I had such an easy time communicating with Jessica prior to our wedding day. She answered all of our questions in a timely, professional, and courteous manner, and she did an amazing job meeting all of our requests. But the day of the wedding is where Jessica and her staff really shined. From the moment we started taking photos until the last guest left at midnight, the Spencer's staff absolutely nailed it. My wife, our guests, friends and family, and myself all had a wonderful time; and it's because the staff made the event flow smoothly, quickly, and made sure everything went off without a hitch. Except, of course, the hitch that tied the two of us together. (Sorry, bad pun!) We couldn't recommend Jessica and Spencer's any higher. What a fantastic day. We both want to do it again! But, hopefully just to renew our vows!

  Let me start this review by stating that I have been an event planner for over 10 years and I was very picky about want I wanted for my own wedding which was location, quality, beauty & fun. Spencer's delivered all that and more in just 5 weeks after we decided to get married. Our wedding was truly magical and we planned it with Spencer's (and the amazing Jessica) help from start to finish. You will never regret getting married here. The ambiance is beyond words amazing, the food was plentiful and delicious (all our guests raved about it) and the level of service was beyond perfection...plus they are a wealth of information on who to contact from everything from flowers to D.J.'s. We would do it all over again with the team at Spencer's...and did I mention our wedding cake that their pastry chef baked for us? Go with the lemon...you will not be disappointed!

  Jessica could not have been better. She helped us through all the planning and countless site visits and made sure that things ran smoothly for our ceremony, reception and our brunch on Sunday. The staff for the events were perfect and very accommodating. The room and grounds were beautiful! The food was flawless. It was a perfect weekend and if I had to do it again I wouldn't change a thing!

  I hope I will not be getting married again but if I did I most probably would do it at Spencer's. From the ceremony outside overlooking the mountain scape to the cocktail party around the beautiful pool, to the amazing reception it was an awesome experience. If all of this wasn't enough, all out of town and close friends met once again the next morning for a scrumptious brunch at the same venue.

  It was the best. The venue is beautiful (once you get to the grass). A little funky getting there. Everyone was so accommodating. We celebrated the rehearsal dinner. Fabulous!!

  I cannot speak highly enough of Spencer's Restaurant!! They were amazing. The venue is absolutely gorgeous and affords a beautiful garden for the ceremony with a view of palm springs, then cocktail hour around the pool and then you move inside to a cool ballroom which is all windows on one side, waterfall and fireplace on the other. Doesn't feel like a ballroom at all! Their manager of events, Jessica was fantastic to deal with and took all the stress away. She was a wonderful partner and worked within our budget to make the event perfect. Spencer's has amazing food and their pastry chef made us the most delicious cake which we were able to personalize with our own touches. Our guests kept coming up to us afterwards to tell us how much they loved the night. We couldn't be happier with their service and highly recommend to other couples looking to get married in the Palm Springs area!

  I have no complaints working with Jessica and the staff at Spencer's. Everyone was warm, helpful, and professional from the first day we visited, when enjoyed our complimentary meal, to the day after the wedding when I did one final sweep of the venue. Jessica was responsive to all of our questions and needs, accommodated our requests to customize the food and beverage menu. The food was delicious and plentiful. We not only felt like we got our money's worth, but that we chose the perfect venue for our special day.

  We cannot say enough about Leslie and her staff at Spencer’s. We had a small destination wedding (40 people) at Spencers’. Living on the East Coast and planning a wedding 3000 miles away was something we were concerned about. But Leslie’s guidance and professionalism made it a breeze. She helped in so many facets of our wedding from selecting the vendors, communicating our vision, planning the details, and then overseeing the whole operation. The venue, the food, the staff, everything was perfect. They know what they are doing and they execute flawlessly. You cannot possibly do better at any other venue in Palm Springs.

  Born and raised in the Coachella Valley, I knew that I wanted to one day get married in my hometown but had no idea of where. Little did I know that when we begin the wedding venue hunt we would come across this gem called Spencer's at the mountain. I had my mindset on a big standard, country club - the same old ballroom that everyone celebrates in. But my vision completely changed when my husband and I stepped foot into Spencer's glass doored ballroom tucked right against the mountain with a waterfall and view like no other. We knew immediately that this was the place. Not only did the venue blow our minds, but the Director of Sales and Catering, Leslie Lombano-Ridge, impressed us like no other. Her passion for what she does truly shines and no one knows this industry or puts as much effort into what they do as Leslie. All my bridezilla worries were rest assured. In addition, Spencers is ranked not just in the Coachella Valley but nationally for their cuisine. What more could we have dreamed of? Amazing venue, staff, and cuisine. It seemed too good to be true! And it was!! Our wedding was March 22, 2014 and the wedding was like a fairytale. Working with Leslie throughout the process is a breeze as she is already connected with all the best vendors in the valley. She will make the experience truly magical for you. The day went so smoothly with so much support and help from everyone at Spencer's - and this includes the rehearsal dinner too. The venue truly is a gem - you must go and experience it. Oh and for pictures - your photographer will have so many options. I could not have been more happy with my wedding experience and owe it all to Spencers. Leslie and her team are the BEST! I highly recommend them for your wedding or any special occasion.

  Leslie at Spencer's (and all of her amazing staff) create the most perfect place to have a wedding. Everything from the set up, the food, the cake, her ability to coordinate and essentially wedding plan - was amazing! I couldn't believe how seamless the whole day was, and that is in large part to Leslie and her amazing staff. The food was incredible, and all of our guests were elated. Spencer's is the BEST way to go if you're looking at having a wedding in Palm Springs - period!

  Spencer's Restaurant (and most especially, Leslie the Director of Sales and Catering) made our wedding rehearsal absolutely perfect! We had such a wonderful time, the room was set up beautifully, the food was delicious, and the service was impeccable. Leslie had endless communication with me leading up to our event to create a customized fabulous event. I greatly enjoyed working with her, she is very professional yet such a friendly person, I loved speaking with her. We could not have imagined a more fitting venue for our rehearsal dinner and as soon as we found Spencer’s, we knew that it was the one! Then getting to work with such a wonderful staff was an absolute added bonus. This is the ONLY place in Palm Springs I would recommend for a rehearsal dinner, it is wonderful!

  Jessica and her staff were excellent. Jessica was receptive to our ideas and coordinated the event flawlessly. The food was amazing and in abundance; in fact, many guests commented how delicious the food was and how they loved the setting and wedding overall.
  Thanks again for making our day match our expectations. I definitely recommend Jessica and her staff whole-heartedly.
