Why You'll Love This Place
A Here Comes The Guide Wedding Venue Review
- This 1926 Art Deco jewel evokes the refined feel of a Spanish-Moorish citadel, set on 25 acres of sprawling lawns dotted with oak, cypress, and pine. Built on a truly palatial scale, there are several different gathering spaces both indoors and out, along with a noteworthy catering menu, ensuring you'll find the perfect fit for your guest count, vision, and budget.
- The glittering Barbara McNitt Ballroom transports you back to classic Hollywood glamour, highlighted by a striking original tiled wall bordering floor-to-ceiling arched windows. An adjacent Veranda spills onto the Peacock Lawn, which is bordered by European-inspired rose gardens, manicured boxwood hedges, and winding paths—it's a favorite spot for al fresco celebrations.
- The sun-splashed Novia Terrace is a lovely and intimate open-air option. Receptions might follow in the La Novia Room, where you'll find elegant vintage touches like rich wood trim and hand-painted wooden ceiling beams, or the El Prado Banquet Room, which is enhanced by a cherrywood dance floor, dark wood beams, and arches. And in case a beach wedding ceremony is on your wish list, then you'll love Crocker's Cove, which overlooks the Monterey Bay.
