Why You'll Love This Place
A Here Comes The Guide Wedding Venue Review
- Established in 1863 as a gold mining town, this once-abandoned settlement now serves as both a living museum and unique celebration venue, surrounded by the striking vistas of the Sonoran Desert and boasting lovingly restored historic buildings and artifacts.
- Wed in the sweet ceremony gazebo, then encourage guests to grab a cocktail from the 1912 bar. From here, they can wander the lit half-mile path that winds through the town, exploring the scenic and fascinating space before gathering for dinner and dancing, either beneath the stars or in the shaded pavilion.
- So many fun add-ons! You can treat guests to vintage horse-drawn carriage rides, entertain them with a Wild West Marshall show or live cowboy music, offer photos from the Candid Charm Photo Booth, and have drinks served from the saddle pack of a darling “beverage pony”.
