Why You'll Love This Place
A Here Comes The Guide Wedding Venue Review
- Garden romance meets timeless luxury at this romantic estate, nestled on 40 secluded acres in Escondido. Encompassing edible herb and vegetable gardens, old growth orchards, and sweeping, palm-lined lawns with views of San Diego's sun-kissed hillsides, this gorgeous spot is made for couples dreaming of a celebration that feels private, natural, and beautifully refined. There are even a pair of custom-designed dressing areas for the parties: the light-filled Ivy Villa and the richly styled Gentleman's Distillery.
- A canopy of lush suspended ferns creates a one-of-a-kind setting for ceremonies in the Woodland Grotto—in fact, this evergreen archway creates its own softly shaded micro-climate beneath the abundant foliage. This is just one of a handful of stunning ceremony sites, which also include the authentic redwood Orchard Barn, the Brick and Timber Chapel, the expansive Starry Night Meadow, and the forged iron Ethereal Garden Pergola. After the "I do"s, guests mingle at the Smoked Cedar Lounge & Bar before transitioning to the Ethereal Open Air Pavilion, whose open sides invite in herb-scented breezes and dreamy meadow views.
- Trademark Venues' all-inclusive approach provides a truly seamless experience, bringing together the romance of a private estate with the warm hospitality of a full-service venue. They'll work with you every step of the way, from crafting your perfect menu alongside the Executive Chef to selecting from an extensive collection of in-house décor and furnishings (and an even more extensive rental catalog) to thoughtful day-of coordination and planning.
