Northern California Weddings

Planning a Wedding in the Northern California?

Here Comes The Guide 13th Edition Northern California BookYeah, we wrote the book on wedding planning in Northern California!

We’ve been visiting, checking and writing about wedding venues, wedding services, and bridal salons in Northern California since 1990. We’re picky! We only include wedding locations, vendors and salons we would recommend to our sisters and best friends.

What do we mean by Northern California? From Mendocino in the north of the state to Wine Country and the San Francisco Bay Area, then south to Monterey and Carmel, and west to Sacramento and Tahoe.
