Why You'll Love This Place
A Here Comes The Guide Wedding Venue Review
- Originally built in 1934 as a beet sugar refining factory, this storied complex now plays host to fourteen unique wineries—and truly spectacular weddings. Massive red brick structures form the backdrop to every event here, whether you host your celebration under the stars on the Plaza Lawn, in the light-flooded Gallery, or the intimate Barrel Room.
- The Boiler Room, a favorite for grand receptions, offers industrial elegance at its most dramatic. During the day, light streams through three stories of multipaned windows, illuminating the exposed iron beams and original brick walls; when the sun sets, the tall ceilings seem to disappear as twinkle lights illuminate overhead, creating a magical "starry night" effect.
- Each of the three rental packages include the assistance of their exceptional coordinators, meaning you can focus on the important stuff, like choosing your wines (a tasting experience is included, too!). Plus, the Mill's location just 15 minutes from downtown Sacramento is convenient for both local and out-of-town guests.
