The HomeStead in Oak Glen is located in the foothills of the San Bernardino mountains. It's just a short jump off the 10 freeway on your way to Palm Springs. This charming and vintage property provides a welcoming atmosphere. From the backdrop of our heritage apple orchard to our tree-shaded reception area, it will be a day you will be proud to call your own. Here at the HomeStead we pride ourselves on not being copy and paste, each wedding here is built around the couples individualized style and vision. Due to our elevation (4,750ft), we have Season's! Our Spring is lush and green (last weekend of April thru mid-July). Summer is generally temperate (late July to August), and in Fall, the colors are eye-catching (September thru mid-November). Weddings are not scheduled from the last week in November through mid-April, but we are open for tours and visits throughout the year. We would love for you to schedule a tour so we can show you around!
The HomeStead in Oak Glen is an AMAZING venue! We were immediately taken in by the beauty of this venue, and knew this was the place for us. The HomeStead is like one stop shopping for weddings - so much was included in their package, that pretty much all we needed was a dress, a tux, an officiant and a photographer. During the planning session, we said we wanted a 1950's inspired wedding and The HomeStead was totally on board - even going as far as having the staff wear 1950's inspired waitress and soda jerk uniforms. They were quick to understand the theme and overall look we were going for, and offer suggestions to make our wedding the best day ever. Our wedding was to be July 22, and when we told them we wanted to do something special for my sisters who were married July 20 and July 21 (several years ago), they were enthusiastic to offer ideas and suggestions. DJ Milo came up with the best idea to play their First Dance songs and my sisters and their husbands joined my husband and I on the dance floor as we all danced to their songs. Thanks DJ Milo! My sisters were happily surprised! On the day of the wedding, we were not at all stressed and were able to enjoy our day, because The HomeStead had everything taken care of. All we had to do was show up! While we were getting ready, The HomeStead team was busy setting up and decorating for our wedding. And it was so beautiful!! All of our guests said this was the best wedding they've been to, and so much fun! Huge thanks to Paula, the Wedding Coordinator, for making our day so amazing; thanks to DJ Milo for making it such a fun party; thanks to Lisa the florist for her amazing, colorful floral arrangements; thanks to Lisa the Bride Whisperer for being our right hand woman of the day and helping with anything we needed during the ceremony and reception; thank you to Lexi for helping us with rehearsal and answering every question we had; and finally, thank you to all staff for participating in our theme and making our day so wonderful.

We got married in spring 2023 and absolutely LOVED The Homestead as our venue. My husband and I often like to say, \"We did a lot of things right with our wedding, and the number one thing we did right was choose The Homestead.\" The venue itself is STUNNING at magic hour, and the apple orchard town of Oak Glen is so charming and gorgeous. The layout of the space is very clever, moving people along from the ceremony to the reception in an intuitive process. And all the amenities were exactly what we needed and BEYOND. (Having access to their store of decorations was particularly helpful!) But beyond that, their personalized attention to detail, the care and kindness, the sense of humor, the efficiency, expertise, and overall competence -- it was first-rate and we couldn't have asked for more from Paula and her fabulous team. Of course there are always nerves and questions surrounding the big day, but Paula and the Homestead staff were incredibly patient, calming, collaborative, and flexible -- they worked with us to do a few unique things with our wedding (like hauling in a ping pong table to the dance floor so we could do a ping pong game as our \"first dance\"!) and they offered tons of ideas, advice, and support. We especially loved how The Homestead had their wedding-planning system down to a science -- they really know what they're doing, and that became exceptionally clear on our big day when everything went off so smoothly without even the slightest hint of a hitch. We were seemingly effortlessly whisked around from activity to activity on the day of our wedding, and it was all managed so smoothly and calmly, we felt so cared for and over the moon! But that said, they're not overly rigid -- if you have creative ideas, they can work with you to think outside the box! We also loved the food (we went with the Mexican dinner option) which was so beautifully displayed -- we got tons of compliments on it from our guests! And their DJ was a huge hit -- everyone loved him! I could go on and on... in short, we cannot say enough good things about the Homestead and we are THRILLED that we chose them for our perfect wedding day! Reviewed on 07-12-2023

The HomeStead is a stunning venue with excellent service. Paula was very clear and communicative. We got to the cottages very early in the day and they took care of us. It rained when we were supposed to start the ceremony a d Paula and her team were all over it. They checked forecasts for when we would have a break, adjusted timelines real time and kept us where we needed to be. They covered all the dinner tables with plastic and even changed out the dinnerware when it rained again right after they had uncovered everything. I hardly even saw the team but they were on top of everything. Couldn't have found a more beautiful to get married! Reviewed on 09-06-2023

Audrey, you were an absolute gem and I really enjoyed working with you on the bar set up Abe signature drinks. Your calculations were dead on! The drinks were phenomenal as well.

So many people danced and the only thing we would have changed would be to add another hour of dancing!! All of the songs sent to him were played perfectly. Our house mom for the morning to ceremony was so sweet. Constantly filling the water and juices, providing snacks and checking in on us regularly! Now flowers⊠again they were also perfect!! So beautiful, truly. And my bouquet smelled phenomenal as well. Thank you to the HomeStead family for your hospitality and ensuring we had the absolute best day of our lives!!If you are searching for a venue, look no further, truly!!

MICHAEL STEPHENS(other)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 26-09-2020 My daughter's first anniversary is this weekend since her wonderful wedding at the Homestead a year ago. Believe me, I know, that money is an issue with most weddings. But I have never spent money in a better way than by booking this venue. It was priceless and so worth it! As parents of only one daughter, we wanted this day to be perfect for her. A day that she would always fondly remember and cherish. We shopped around and viewed other sites and wedding venues before choosing Homestead. Some were more expensive and some less, but none had the special feeling that Homestead had from the moment we first visited. Before we even spoke to anyone, my daughter knew that this was the place for her.Paula and Lexi and staff worked very hard to make this day more amazing than we ever could have imagined. The scheduling, planning, catering, music and everything else was taken care of by the Homestead. We chose the food, beverages, decorations, songs, etc. and watched them magically and meticulously put it all together. They made everyoneâs experience so enjoyable and special! They know how to do it right. The wedding was held during the height of the Covid-19 pandemic and amidst the horrible fires in Oak Glen, where from day to day we didnât know if the wedding was a âgoâ or âno go.â Paula was available daily for updates which made everything less stressful. We hung in there, telling relatives from Georgia to Oregon to come, we are having the wedding! And what a wedding it was! We will always be grateful to the Homestead for making the wedding so spectacular! If youâre looking for a wedding venue that has a good, down-home country feel to it, a place where you can dance under the stars, sip lemonade and roast marshmallows, a place where great attention is given to detail and a place where you get to choose all the fun wedding things and trimmings. I would highly recommend the Homestead in Oak Glen, CA. They will take excellent care of your special day. Reviewed on 27-09-2021
Lisa Swizek(other)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 15-07-2021 If you're looking for a wedding venue right now, and you desire to have the most AMAZING wedding day, free from stress, in an absolutely beautiful and unique place, where your guests are relaxed and having so much fun, DELICIOUS FOOD, with professionals who literally think of EVERY detail and are mindful of you the entire day and gracious with your guests, also a venue with a ridiculously reasonable prices-- I'm doing you a favor by telling you to book The Homestead. My son and his new wife just married there last week and we are still talking about how the venue and staff made it the perfect day. I'll talk later about the process (that's genius by the the way). The venue itself is so unique- I would love to just live there. It's so beautiful, relaxing and decorated in such a way that guests just roam around enjoying the amazing way it's put together and decorated. The brides house reminds me of my grandma's house, the atmosphere in there is so relaxing, enjoyable and just puts you at ease. They have a great area for hair and makeup and a really nice size bathroom, sitting area for the bride with a full length mirror, a separate sitting area ( like grandma's living room), a snack area, kitchen, etc... it's the cutest place ever. The grooms cabin couldn't be any more perfect, stocked with snacks and things to keep the guys busy, and a deck for them to enjoy. The flowers were gorgeous and Lisa the florist is just the sweetest (you'll love her), the DJ is just the nicest person, easy to work with and kept things moving in a timely way, THE FOOD is beyond delicious, especially for a wedding. The Jalapeno poppers, Fried Mac and cheese bites, and the chicken salad on apple slices are all still being talked about. Dinner was just as amazing (not your normal stuffy wedding food). The staff is just moving around constantly taking care of every detail so you can really take in the moments, have fun with your guests. Rehearsal was a breeze, simple, detailed instructions for all involved without being overwhelming. Before you get to the wedding they set up a \"Planning Day\" that's a 4 hour day where you plan every detail of your wedding. It literally is the most fun experience where you spend a little bit of time with DJ, floral, caterer and lastly the contract info. And then you are basically \"done\" they take it from there. And if that wasn't easy enough, they set it all up for you, tear it down for you, you pick out decorations from THEIR warehouse, unless you want to use something you've bought. But it's nice that you can use their decor and not have to buy tons of things you'll have to put on marketplace afterwards to sell. They use REAL dishes (not plastic like some venues). And they tear it all down and have an area for you to pick up anything that you brought. EASIEST PROCESS EVER. These folks feel like family when you're done and you're just so grateful that they made the most special day in your son and new daughters life one they will never forget. Just do it, book them. You will NOT regret it. Reviewed on 19-07-2021

Then I met the amazing team there, told them what I had in mind (again those vague ideas) and after that literally did nothing.

Chelcie Guthrie(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 31-10-2018 I can't even explain how amazing and effortless Paula and her team at the Homestead made our wedding. It was a pretty hectic morning. When we arrived our daughter broke our cake topper! I was so upset, but Paula totally fixed it and I ensured me not to even think about it or stress over it. She was totally right! You couldn't even tell. My husband and I also changed our first dance song the day of the wedding and they totally accommodated. I loved how personal they made our wedding. Every nook and cranny of the venue had a special piece of us. All of our guests commented how it was the most beautiful wedding they had ever attended. The food was amazing and I loved the photo booth. We had a lot of kids at our wedding and they really loved the smores. I had some pretty interesting requests and Paula and her team totally made them all happen. I honestly couldn't be happier! Reviewed on 31-08-2017

Nicole Morris(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 09-06-2017 My first impression of this venue was \"Wow! I just fell in love\" When we were taking a look at venues, The Homestead was still in the back of my head saying \"pick me. pick me\" Our wedding was absolutely perfect because we chose The Homestead! The staff is very friendly and helpful. They make you feel right at home in this home-like setting. The day ran so smoothly. Everything was perfect from the venue to the caterer to the DJ to the florist. They all listen closely to every detail and idea you have and they make it come alive. I definitely recommend this venue to anyone. You'll fall in love! Reviewed on 27-06-2017
Hillary Carrico(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 08-01-2018 We picked The Homestead because of its rustic charm and beautiful outdoor views of the mountains. As a May wedding, we assumed it could be a bit chilly, but overall a beautiful day. However, what we did not expect was that there would be not only rain, but hail on our beautiful outdoor ceremony. With this, you would think the wedding could turn into a disaster. It was quite the opposite. Paula and her staff worked so well together, and everything ran so smoothly no one seemed to mind the crazy weather. The venue is absolutely breathtaking and has a charm that is sure to make anyone feel at home when they are there. I have no complaints for this venue, or with Paula and her staff. They are truly amazing at what they do! I plan to come back to visit just to see the beauty of it all and reminisce on one amazing, unforgettable day. Reviewed on 25-05-2017
Regine Ingram(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 12-11-2016 Wow, wow wow! I've always dreamed of my wedding day to be magical and perfect, which it absolutely was because of the Homestead! The venue, staff, catering, bar area and DJ were absolutely perfect and the whole entire event went smoothly! The best decision I made during the planning process was choosing The Homestead as our wedding venue! I seriously could rant all day about how incredible the day and venue was, but honestly, call Paula and schedule a tour yourself to see the magic and beauty this venue has to offer!I do want to add that I didn't have to lift a finger on my wedding day. I have been in a ton of weddings and the bridesmaids and MOH are usually running around setting things up, making sure things are in order, etc. Not at the Homestead! They literally did everything for me! I dropped off the decorations the day before at our rehearsal and on our wedding day, the staff set everything up for me and it was BEAUTIFUL! The Homestead made our wedding incredible and unforgettable and I will forever be grateful that we stumbled across this venue! Reviewed on 28-11-2016
Sara Mueller(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 19-11-2016 I honestly can't say enough good things about Paula and the the entire Homestead team!!! They were amazing from the get go and our day was perfect!!! We couldn't have asked for anything better! The package is a HUGE VALUE, so much so that they should actually start charging clients more for their services. You always hear about brides becoming \"bridezilla\" but because of the Homestead crew I was no where close to becoming that evil beast. The whole planning part was so easy, they had us come up for a day to taste the food (AMAZING, Haverland's food is out of this world! Not your typical \"wedding\" food), meet the DJ (Milo was ours and he was phenomenal), go over flowers and table arrangements with the florist Nadine (who is another one of the sweetest and most helpful people I've ever met!). For those who want to be more involved in their planning process may be a little weary by only one real face to face meeting, but Paula or the other girls are super fast at getting back to you in a timely manner, so any questions or concers you may have are put at ease. The day of was perfect but I was obviously nervous. Paula, affectionately deemed \"Sarge\" by my family, April, and my cottage mom (I'm so sorry but I can't remember her name :/ but she was awesome) were all a huge help, asking if I needed anything and any last minute requests made by me were done without hesitation. Thank you, thank you, thank you all for the absolute perfect day!!!!!!!!! Reviewed on 27-11-2016

Everyone is still telling me how much fun they had. All of the staff were very helpful and caring. I didn't want the tradional wedding I wanted one of a kind and The Homestead made sure it was. They did all the hard work so it helped to make a lot of the stress go away. Highly recommended venue for any bride.

Jen D'Anna(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 13-08-2016 My family and I couldn't have been more pleased with our wedding venue. Our wedding was absolutely beautiful from start to finish! There is an adorable little cottage for all the bridal party to get ready in. The groomsman all got ready in a cabin on the property and had a great time. Paula, the main contact for the homestead, made sure all our ideas and requests were executed. They have countless decorations that you can use to make the day perfect. We went with a romantic, rustic theme and the Homstead couldn't have been more perfect for our style. Haverland catering did a great job as well. Our food was so delicious! We got a lot of compliments from our guests on our food. Nadine did our flowers and did a beautiful job. She was such a pleasure to work with and was so generous with all the flowers at our wedding. I especially loved our bouquets. Rick, our DJ, made sure the whole day went smoothly without any hiccups. He went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. Beyond all of that, the property is absolutely beautiful! With the mountain drop in the background, all the beautiful plants and detailed decor all around the property, it really made for the perfect day. We still get complements on how beautiful everything turned out. The only issue we ran into, was that we were under the impression we had to pick up our decorations the following day, and ended up having to take them the night of the wedding. That caused some issues as we were not prepared to do that, but it all worked out as the bridal party helped us gather our things. Overall, we were so pleased with the Homstead and thank them for making our dream day come true! Reviewed on 05-11-2016

The team at The HomeStead is amazing, kind, hard working and just REALLY GOOD at what they do. I have pretty intense anxiety, but never once did I feel like I needed to be stressed about anything.

Paula and Don that run it know what they are doing and I was in the best hands the day of my wedding. Their packages takes care of all the little things I found most venues do not cover. They were excited to hear about our biology wedding theme and our plan to have a bird of prey as the ring bearer. They have an amazing staff and the day went without a hitch. We got so many compliments from the guests on the venue and the setting. The venue is all outdoors but the main areas are paved so sinking heels are not an issue. They are always improving upon the amazing accommodations they have. They plan on building a barn in the near future to plan for indoor receptions in case of bad weather. The fall is the best season for their venue because the scenery is lush and green and the apple orchards are ready for picking. Reviewed on 03-10-2013
