Why You'll Love This Place
A Here Comes The Guide Wedding Venue Review
- This beautifully preserved historic house and garden is a hidden gem in the heart of the charming village of Arroyo Grande. Your day begins with preparations in the private Victorian dressing suite in Ruby's House, a lovely historic home originally built in 1888.
- A picture-perfect white gazebo in the gardens is your dreamy ceremony backdrop, where mature trees, bountiful blooms, and a soft lawn sit alongside the picturesque Heritage House. After the "I do"s, snap memorable photos before the replica 17th-century carriage before joining your guests in the gardens for dinner beneath glowing twinkle lights.
- Your celebration supports the continuing preservation of this precious space, which is run by a nonprofit dedicated to preserving South County's heritage—making weddings here both budget-friendly and deeply meaningful.
