We had an amazing wedding experience at The Mountain Terrace!! Our coordinator Kristy as well as other staff were very responsive to our communications from the start of the planning process. The venue itself was absolutely breathtaking, everything throughout the day was executed well, and so many of our guests raved about the food afterwards. Thank you for making our day so memorable and beautiful!

Not only is The Mountain Terrace a BEAUTIFUL venue, the staff here is amazing! As soon as I walked through the gate, I knew I had found my venue (I could not stop thinking about it!!) The staff is super organized (which I truly appreciated) and were so accommodating to all of our requests / questions! I mainly worked with Caren and she was super helpful and always there for us throughout the wedding planning process. We also booked the wedding coordination service and am very glad we did as the wedding day went smoothly! The food here is also great!! Our guests raved about the clam chowder shooters and the crab cakes. We had salmon and the tri tip as our dinner options and both were a hit. We are so grateful for the venue's incredible staff and for their dedication to making our special day truly magical. We highly recommend The Mountain Terrace to any couple looking for a wedding venue that is both beautiful and unforgettable.

We cannot recommend Mountain Terrace enough! We had the wedding of our dreams. Their experience with events was crucial especially given we had 210 guests. Our friends and family gave rave reviews from the professionalism of the staff, delicious food, beautiful venue, and how seamlessly the night went from the ceremony to dinner to reception. We were married in October - the weather was perfect. We were able to let our guests know to bring a jacket since it got cold once the sun went down. Everyone was very comfortable under the tent with heaters and in the reception area. They loved being able to spend time at the firepit throughout the night. We also had the pleasure of working with Kristy, one of their wedding coordinators. She was truly phenomenal!

We had such a gorgeous wedding! It was a very intimate group-- only immediate family. Even though the venue can cater for very large groups, we felt like it was still perfect for our 11 person wedding! The venue setting is truly spectacular. The redwoods hold a lot of significance for us, so being surrounded by them was our dream. The on-site staff were all so profession and did a great job. The day went by seamlessly! We really enjoyed having a little plate of snacks made for us so we could escape and have a few private minutes together. Our banquet-manager was so amazing. She was able to keep everything moving and made the day really easy for all of us. Highly recommend to anyone!

We got married at the Mountain Terrace in August, and we had an amazing time. The venue is gorgeous with redwoods surrounding views of the bay. The food was delicious and our guests raved about it. Best of all, the staff did a phenomenal job in helping the day run smoothly. They were professional and demonstrated outstanding hospitality. Caren was our point of contact who helped us during the planning process. It was very easy communicating with her and she was always quick to respond.One annoying thing is that there is a no amplified music allowed outdoors due to city or county regulations. We had to hire live musicians for the ceremony and cocktail hour, which turned out very nice, but for those that might not have the budget, this is something to consider. It also made it harder to decide when to do the grand entrance and first dance, since we needed to those indoors but dinner would be outdoors. We ended up moving everyone indoors after cocktail hour for the grand entrance and first dance, and then back outdoors for dinner after.It can also get pretty chilly at night, even in the middle of summer. We opted not to get the heaters, and we regret that decision a little bit.Overall we had a great experience with the Mountain Terrace and would highly recommend them.

We could not have been happier with our Mountain Terrace experience!! They were amazing from start to finish!! Obviously it's a bit expensive, but they were very upfront and honest about their pricing from the start (no hidden fees or surprises later on), and the quality of everything exceeded expectations. Caren was an amazing contact throughout the planning experience - I probably sent her 50+ emails with random questions as I thought of them, and she always responded so promptly with plenty of information. Our guests raved about the beauty of the venue and how good the food was. They truly made it an unforgettable day. Highly, highly recommend!!

We had our wedding at the Mountain Terrace and it was nothing short of a dream experience, from our first visit through the last minute of our wedding day. The site is beautiful, of course, but beyond that, the team at the Mountain Terrace is a well-oiled machine. The planners were such a pleasure to work with, bringing professionalism, experience, and a sense of confidence that always eased our anxious pre-wedding stresses. The chef and his team are next-level, exceeding our expectations of how good the food at a wedding can be. How they delivered that quality for 100 people is beyond me, but my wife and I couldn’t be happier with our experience. I wish we could get married there fifty more times. What a dream.

We got married in this absolutely stunning venue in July. We were initially attracted to this venue due to its location - somewhat convenient for the bay area, located along the Skyline so the weather stays cool in the summer, and surrounded by the redwood and sequoia trees that are meaningful to us. After having visited and talking with the staff and owners, it became apparent that they have strong communication skills and provide excellent customer service. Having their own in-house catering proved to be very convenient and we were completely satisfied with the quality of their food in the end. We worked with Anastasia as our coordinator and she was truly fantastic in both helping us prepare for the event and making sure everything ran smoothly the day of. The Mountain Terrace was attentive to our requests and worked with us on our customization needs. The staff were genuinely warm and friendly that helped to put the guests at ease. I have so much appreciation for their clear communication, transparent pricing, excellent vendor relationships, and customer-forward business model. It was a tough call for us to make at the time in choosing the right venue, but in hindsight, we absolutely made the correct choice. I can't endorse the Mountain Terrace enough and I would highly recommend you visit and talk with them to see if they will also be the right venue for you.

The venue was gorgeous. The service was fantastic. However, the highlight was absolutely the food. The food was unbelievably delicious. If you care about the quality of food, definitely consider The Mountain Terrace. We also booked our wedding just outside of peak season, so a heated tent was included to cover the patio space, which provided a fantastic environment.

We celebrated our wedding in March at the Mountain Terrace, with Anastasia as our Day-Of Coordinator. The venue is absolutely beautiful with its sprawling grassy field and tall redwoods on the grounds, cozy cabin-like interior, and large two-tiered deck with clear plastic coverings. The food and drink options provided by the venue were delicious: we chose the duck, salmon, and hen of the woods entrees. The day of our wedding was unfortunately cold, windy, and rainy, and we had very much hoped to have an outdoor wedding on the grounds. The staff at the venue had all the seating set up outside, and they were very calm and flexible, giving us until literally 20 minutes before the ceremony started to audible to an indoor ceremony as our musicians could not play in the wet conditions. They quickly re-organized all the chairs on the deck, and we proceeded with a cozy indoor ceremony. Anastasia, our coordinator, was so incredibly helpful, organized, and supportive through the entire process. She responded very quickly to all our emails throughout the planning process, keeping us on track with the timeline, reminding us of anything we had missed, and being warm and flexible with any changes we wanted to make. She even helped me bustle the complex ties on my dress. We had a great experience at The Mountain Terrace with Anastasia on our team, and would absolutely recommend the to anyone else looking for an event venue!

Caren did a fantastic job juggling both myself and my parents (I was on the East Coast while my parents were right in town) and kept us all in the loop. On our wedding day, Kristy went above and beyond keeping everything running smoothly and ensuring that neither us nor our families had to worry about anything. The kitchen and catering staff were fantastic! We received multiple compliments on the food from our guests.

I'd my wedding at this venue first week of July and the event planning and coordination team here are rude, incompetent and unprofessional to say the least. They changed my day of coordinator at the last moment and didn't even bother informing me until I got to the venue an hour before my wedding. My family had to run around managing the event and coordinating every little detail while the substitute coordinator was clueless and missed out on our requirements they gathered from me over the planning phase through multitude of ridiculous forms. The staff there started clearing out the chairs from the ceremony site while the ceremony was still in progress. And this is just one of the many many things that went wrong. The worst part is that they don't even have the minimum decency to send me a formal apology. I was hoping to let a few days pass before my emotions get the better of me. But the staff has since ghosted me and hasnot been responsive. Their behavior and lack of basic decency has appalled me. Don't be fooled by the initial fluff and steer clear of this venue for your big day

The Mountain Terrace was absolutely beautiful, and it captured our vision for a foresty- romantic wedding. The team was wonderful, quick to respond to emails and very helpful answering my many questions! There is no outdoor amplified music allowed (as other reviewers have stated) and we hired harpist Krista Strader who was wonderful. We had about 60 guests but I can imagine it would be a bit more difficult trying to coordinate transportation for a large group just due to the nature of the location of the mountain terrace. Also, there is not a large space for getting ready in for the wedding party. My 2 bridemaids and I got ready where we were staying and changed clothes when we got there and even for the three of us there wasn't a lot of space, but it worked! Just plan ahead.

We fell in love with The Mountain Terrace as soon as we stepped onto the property! The scenery is absolutely breathtaking. The ability to decorate the venue as we desired allowed us to turn it into the magical, whimsical, wedding we envisioned. The food is amazing, all my guests raved about the crab cakes. The team there and the day-of-coordinator made it easy to plan our special day. They were very responsive and accommodative. They also provided recommendations for vendors and that made it super easy because they've worked with these vendors and the vendors are familiar with the area and the rules of the trade. I highly recommend booking the Terrace Suite for the night before and the night of as well as it provides a place for the bridal party to get ready and a place to retreat to after the reception. I would also recommend getting heat lamps no matter what time of year it is, it gets pretty chilly at night. Overall, we are super pleased with our experience there and I would choose the Mountain Terrace 1000 times over!

We loved this venue. It was beautiful, surrounded by Redwoods, a great layout of for ceremony to reception, and the BEST food. Some things to note about the venue:There is no amplified music outside, which means if you want music during the ceremony and cocktail hour, you need to hire string musicians. There is not really a spot for the bride and bridesmaids to get ready the day of (the get ready room is not designed for the girls to get their hair and makeup done at the venue), so you will almost assuredly need to rent the house next to the venue for 2 nights to make sure the bridal party has a place to get ready the day of. There are lots of little charges that add up. That may be standard for the industry and venues in general, we just were not aware of that when we selected the venue, so it ended up being more expensive than we had initially thought. Uber/Lyft does not reliably pick up from there, so you will likely need to order transportation for your guests, if you want them to be able to drink without driving. Again, we really liked the venue, and we felt that we had a magical wedding day. There were just a few things we were not expecting and they caught us off guard.

We had our wedding here and the setting is gorgeous. The redwoods, the beautiful view, the patio/deck, it all made for a truly stunning backdrop to our wedding. We had a lot of positive comments on the food (we were too emotional to really enjoy the food) but we got multiple comments about how good the appetizers and entrees were. We were slightly disappointed by their lack of vegetarian fare that didn't highlight mushrooms. They also listed some items as vegetarian that were not actually (i.e. sardines in Caesar salad dressing). They do charge for extras that we anticipated would be already included in the total cost (i.e dance floor, heated lamps, cheese cutting, s'mores, flower clean-up, etc) so I recommend asking ahead about these. Caren our coordinator was very responsive and always willing to chat with us to help curate our vision. Overall we loved our venue, despite the slight hiccups we wouldn't have changed our experience.

We had our wedding here and the setting is gorgeous. The redwoods, the beautiful view, the patio/deck, it all made for a truly stunning backdrop to our wedding. We had a lot of positive comments on the food (we were too emotional to really enjoy the food) but we got multiple comments about how good the appetizers and entrees were. We were slightly disappointed by their lack of vegetarian fare that didn't highlight mushrooms.

Our wedding at The Mountain Terrace was better than we could have ever dreamed of! We knew we wanted to get married here from the first photo we saw years back, and the venue did not disappoint! Beyond the site being absolutely beautiful, encircled by Redwood trees, working with Anastasia and Caren was an excellent experience! They were quick to respond to our many questions and made the day run so smoothly. We loved every minute of our special day and the scenery in the photos looks gorgeous!

Update! The MOST beautiful venue with the most delicious food, fantastic drinks, helpful and kind staff. All around, the best decision we made for our wedding! Everyone was telling us how gorgeous the venue was, how delicious the food was, and how perfect the space was for us. We loved that it was convenient and easy to get to for our guests, but we felt like we were tucked away in a magical woods with a gorgeous view of the bay. The food and drinks were fantastic and were were so lucky that they packaged up leftovers for us to enjoy the following days! The staff were just the best -- helpful throughout the entire process, kind and thoughtful during the day, and the entire day ran so smoothly. Kristy (our coordinator through the venue) was perfect -- easy to communicate with, incredibly knowledgeable, kind, and flexible with all of our asks! She and the Mountain Terrace made our day perfect. We are so grateful to have gotten married in such a beautiful place. ------ Katia and the whole team at the Mountain Terrace have been phenomenal!!! From our first meeting to go over the package, to the site tour, to our numerous questions over email and adjustments to the estimate/contract - they have been so kind, helpful, and patient! We are very excited to have our wedding here :)

We just booked Mountain Terrace for our wedding summer 2022! It's a breathtaking space, we fell in love with it the instant we walked in and looked over the terrace. It's a perfect balance of indoor/outdoor, we are both nature and redwood tree lovers and wanted a natural landscape that would also be comfortable for our guests. They were very responsive, after our initial inquiry, they set up a zoom meeting and reviewed a lot of the basics - I found this very helpful as the entire wedding planning process can feel daunting. She was ready to talk specifics, asking about wedding date thoughts and average guest count, it helped us get the ball rolling on the details needed to plan a wedding. After the zoom we set up a tour, they provide a lot of information, which helped us compare cost and ultimately choose our venue. They also offer a wedding coordinator who will be involved 4 months prior to the wedding + wedding day to help with everything. This was a big draw for me. I'm very happy to have officially booked this stunning venue and look forward to next months planning the bid day!

The customer service and professionalism of the staff made the process from the start of palling to last call absolutely flawless. The gorgeous backdrop of the redwoods is the perfect setting that complimented our decor. Our guests raved about the service of the bartenders, the incredible display of appetizers, the plating and quality of our seated dinner, and the picture perfect atmosphere that the Mountain Terrace Provides. Every single aspect of our reception was perfection, and that is a huge credit to the Mountain Terrace and their incredible service. Choosing a venue for a wedding is likely the hardest part, but once you come to the Mountain Terrace, there just truly is no other option.

Their location is beautiful, with both redwood and reservoir views, and has great on site features like a fire pit (that can be set up with smores!), lawn games, and just the perfect selfie stations. We curated a custom menu with the chef and the food was absolutely amazing! We worked with Brooke to coordinate all of our details and she was so great. She kept us on top of all the planning and accommodated all of our request. She was our day of coordinator and I'm so glad we had her there! She stayed on top of our schedule, I didn't even know what time it was half of the time. Highly recommend, such a beautiful, professional space.

I was so disappointed when I couldn't have any of the appetizers during cocktail hour, so the employees grabbed some for me during dinner! The staff is so amazing.The only downfall of this place is their wedding coordinator. It was so hard to talk to her, to get messages across. I told her to talk to my wedding planner about everything and it literally took me telling her three times before she got the message.

It was clear this venue hosts lots of events and really knows what they are doing.

The attentive service and gorgeous setting at The Mountain Terrace made our day. The venue is beautiful - you're getting married on a grassy lawn surrounded by redwoods overlooking the south bay. The sunset views are spectacular. A deer came at dusk to graze at the edge of the lawn. The lights over the deck and fire pit made for a romantic setting once the sun set. I added on the day-of planning services and highly recommend it because I got to enjoy my wedding and not worry about where I needed to be or who was taking care of our guests. Caren made the day seamless, calm, and fun! She brought us a personal plate of appetizers and champagne during post-ceremony portraits. The bride's dressing room had water (with straws to preserve lipstick!) chairs and a big mirror. Our guests were very well taken care of. We got comments about how accommodating they were of dietary restrictions and how delicious dinner and appetizers were. Our wedding was on August 5, so it was sunny and warm on the lawn during the ceremony, but definitely cooler than in Palo Alto. We looked at weather forecasts for La Honda to prepare. It cooled off to a very comfortable temperature for dinner. We didn't need the heat lamps but were glad to have them because you never know how much it will cool off once the sun sets. There is air conditioning inside, which was great when we were dancing. Caren was very responsive and helpful giving recommendations on heat lamps and umbrellas as we approached our big day. She quickly answered every email in the days and months leading up to our wedding.Overall it was a spectacular experience and we highly recommend The Mountain Terrace and Caren!

Caren (one of the wedding coordinators) is amazing and very responsive. She's on top of things- you don't have to worry about a thing with her! The staff is also very friendly and attentive. We couldn't have asked for anything better. It fit us perfectly and the experience was everything we imagined and more. Just a \"big backyard\" wedding! All of our guests loved it too! Biggest downside is the drive up to the mountain terrace, so highly recommend shuttles if you're having alcohol.

We chose this venue because of the beautiful redwood trees and casual atmosphere. The food was great and were able to do everything we wanted. We had a good experience working with the venue until after the wedding itself. We had our wedding coordinator drop off our final payment the day before our wedding and a few weeks later were told they lost the cashiers check. Since we already moved out of the state, this was upsetting news. A few days later we were then told they forgot to calculate our initial deposit into the final bill. Needless to say it took us several days and an incredible amount of stress to sort this out. Mountain Terrace sent us a gift card and apology letter, but it didn't make up for the fact that someone lost a check, and then couldn't do math. Wedding itself was great, the people who handle your money...not so much.

When looking for a place to hold our wedding, my husband and I searched for months. We had a really tight budget, but still had to uphold the standards our families expected of us. Further, a lot of vendors wouldn't even let us consider having an outdoor wedding in January (apparently its rainy this time of year). But not mountain Terrace. Caren was perfect, answering all my emails quickly and efficiently. She worked with our strange requests and was more than happy to allow or friends to do most of the set up. She helped us design the order of our reception, and allowed us not to have alcohol, even though it is usually a requirement to have a cash bar at least.\r\rAside from just the great service, the location is perfect. Look at pictures, I cannot even begin to describe it. Thank you Mountain Terrace!!

My husband and I got married in November 2012. We are from out of town and found this venue online. When we first walked in, it took our breath away and we knew immediately that this was the place! Because it was planned from a distance, there was a lot of emailing back and forth between us and Caren (coordinator). She was supremely helpful in answering all of them and really kept us on track. When we visited the venue in March for a tasting, the staff was very friendly and helpful. The chef, Kacie, was very willing to accommodate a few of our vegan guests and they really enjoyed their meals. Other staff members also offered creative and fun ways to spice up our wedding - like renting a fire pit and roasting s'mores during the reception! Our wedding day went off without a hitch. We hired Caren to be our day-off coordinator and I am so glad that we did! She took care of everything and not once did I worry about something going wrong. It took such a weight off of our shoulders to have her there. Beautiful location, amazing staff and a perfect wedding day!

This was the only wedding venue that my wife said that she liked, and we saw a lot of different venues. It is very majestic, and a great place for a mountain wedding without going to Tahoe. There is some nickle-and-diming, but if you ask lots of questions upfront about costs before you sign, there shouldn't be any surprises.

The mountain terrace was an amazing venue. The view is beautiful and the staff was very n They are pretty flexible and a lot less expensive compared to other venues in the area. The only restriction that was bothersome to us was no amplified music outdoors due to noise regulations in woodside. Ceremony music must be acoustic and toasts during dinner may not be accompanied with a microphone. We chose to use an outside caterer and pay a fee since our caterer through a friend was not on there preferred list. The \"brides room\" at the venue is quite small so we chose to get ready elsewhere. All in all t was a wonderful outdoor/indoor venue and we had a wonderful time there.

I picked this venue because I wanted a ceremony and reception site together. I wanted something outdoors and beautiful, and this fit all that. Everything looked wonderful inside and out, during the day and the evening. \r\rThe wedding coordinator and head bartender were my go to ladies and were wonderful to work with. Many of my guests commented that this was the most beautiful and perfect venue they have been to. \r\rWhile the ride up to the site is spectacular, through the trees and winding roads, it is a LONG one, but was very enjoyable. Most of my guests were coming from the midwest so I think they really enjoyed it. There are also only a couple ways to get there and since there ended up being an accident on the highway, I got very lucky that the guests using the shuttle weren't too late.\r\rThe county/city has an ordinance that no amplification can be used outside so this means live musicians for the ceremony (which is more beautiful anyway) and practice projecting voices for any outside toasts.\r\rAlso, wear the shoes you will be wearing at the wedding to the rehearsal!! The grass gets watered frequently and standing for over 20 minutes with heals poking through grass is not fun. But, if they didn't water frequently, the venue wouldn't be as beautiful.\r\rAll in all, it was wonderful. They have their own caterers and tables, chairs, linens, you can rent the dance floor, heat lamps, etc. from them. (After the ceremony, dinner, alcohol, and everything else, money adds up. But it was extremely convenient to use ONE vendor for everything)

My wife and I chose the Mountain Terrace for our wedding and reception venue because of the amazing lawn behind the building. It's huge! Adirondack chairs, tall trees, lush grass, and a two-level wood deck make the area irresistible. Denise and Caren are a joy to work with. Both are incredibly responsive and pay great attention to detail. We went with in-house catering and thought the food was great: rosemary chicken, mashed potatoes, salad, and jade rice. Passed appetizers were delicious as well. Absolutely love the bar inside. Service throughout the evening was prompt and pleasant. Be sure to warn your guests of the long and windy road up to the venue.

We searched for months to find a venue that was within our budget for our 80 guest May 2012 wedding in Northern California. We stumbled across the Mountain Terrace on The Knot and decided to contact them for information, and were surprised that they were within our very tight budget (venue rental, ceremony, food, drinks, linens, heat lamps and service are all included in my cost listed). We were planning the wedding from Texas, and the date that we wanted was likely to be booked early, so we put down a deposit before ever seeing the place. When we were finally able to fly out to see it, we were so relieved that it was as beautiful as advertised. The location is a little out of the way with a long windy road to get there, but the scenery is gorgeous, the in house catering is DELICIOUS, the bar was very well stocked, and the staff were so accommodating and helpful. Caren was super helpful during the planning, she answered my endless questions and good naturedly endured all of the changes that we made. Bridget was there the day of the rehearsal and the wedding and gave us really good tips about how to run things, and also smoothed things over when the groom's parents were delayed on their way to the ceremony! All in all we were very satisfied with our experience for our wedding day.

I got married here on 3/31. \r\rThe venue itself is GORGEOUS. I was completely sold when I walked in the door. The trees, the meadow, the decks and the interior have a captivating rustic charm. My pictures have turned out beautiful, and all guests that I have talked to were blown away by the natural beauty of this place. \r\rIt is a little cramped if you have 110+ guests eating in the dining room. However, none of my guests complained about space, and I did have enough room to make the rounds to each table. 5 stars for the venue itself. The Mountain Terrace might just be the perfect if you are looking to have the venue and catering all handled in one spot. \r\rThe management of the Mountain Terrace leaves a lot to be desired. Charisse was great during our tour of the property, and Denise was fabulous on the day of. They were both very helpful and made sure that all questions and requests were handled. Denise and her staff even assisted my caterer in setting and resetting the ceremony, as it was raining on and off that day, and I had my heart set on an outdoor ceremony. Unfortunately, they were not my direct contacts for most of the planning process. \r\rWorking with Caren proved to be challenging at the best of times, and frustrating at the worst. The positives first: Caren was very responsive with emails, and she was willing to meet with me a few times up at the property. However, if you are looking to use a caterer not on their approved list, I would suggest you proceed with caution. I was very dedicated to using a caterer close to my family, so I paid the outside catering surcharge and didn't look back. Every request I had was met with resistance, even though most were not out of the ordinary. \r\rThe worst transgression, however, took place the day after the wedding. Unbeknownst to us, our caterer had put a decal on the dance floor. I am unsure of the details of the clean-up on the night of the wedding, but my caterer reports that he was ushered out before he was able to pull it up. My bridesmaids went to retrieve some of the flower arrangements that were left behind, and they were told that the decal had damaged the dance floor and that my husband and I were held liable for the charges. That is understandable, as their contract was with us, and their only recourse was through us. What I find inexcusable, however, is that THEY called us on our honeymoon before trying to reach out to our caterer. They had a wedding the following evening, and they told me that we would also be held liable for the resulting discount to that couple, since our names were emblazoned on the floor. \r\rA few frantic phone calls and many hours later, I got a hold of Caren the following morning. It tuns out they HADN'T MOPPED THE FLOOR before calling us to let us know about the \"damage\". As I said before, it had been pouring on the day of my wedding, so dirt and mud had been tracked across the dance floor. I can't believe that mopping was not part of the setup process for the next wedding. 0 Stars for that experience, and for the management needlessly ruining the first part of my honeymoon with unnecessary stress, which results in 2.5 stars, rounded down. \r

We wanted an outdoor wedding and after viewing a few other venues, we selected Mountain Terrace because of its beauty and the rental price was very reasonable compared with some other places we considered. The staff was very easy to work with & very patient when we were super indecisive about our beverage options. \r\rThere were a few challenges we didn't really consider to carefully when booking which we wish we'd thought about more prior. Mountain Terrace requires you go through them for beverages. Luckily our wedding was on a Sunday so we weren't required to buy a beverage package and could opt to pay based on consumption. They require also that you use their in-house catering or select from about 3 other options. If you want something different they charge an additional $1000. Also, the venue is located up a curvy narrow road so getting shuttles ($1500 for 2 shuttles to accommodate 60 guests at a time) was almost a necessity to avoid worrying about people driving down a steep hill drunk. These are relatively minor things, but they ended up stressing us out a bit during the planning process.\r\rThat said, we had a beautiful wedding and I wouldn't have wanted us to get married anywhere else. Our guests loved the location & even had a great time on the shuttles.
