Why You'll Love This Place

A Here Comes The Guide Wedding Venue Review
  • On the lovely 18th green, towering date palms encircle a sparkling lake fed by fountains and a waterfall flowing over rocky outcroppings. As you say your vows, cattails lean into the balmy breeze and seasonal flowers provide splashes of color, while the surrounding Santa Rosa foothills look on.
  • The striking clubhouse offers a contemporary version of Southwest style, incorporating wood, glass and stone in an angular design. Toast your nuptials in the in the Main Lounge, a split-level area with a crescent-shaped bar, and follow with a reception in the Main Dining Room, a sunken banquet space with lofty windows overlooking manicured fairways.
  • Truly grand celebrations come alive in the expansive Bob and Dolores Hope Ballroom. Crystal prisms dangle from the extravagant lighting elements, and an entire wall of windows and an adjoining veranda invites guests outside to enjoy the stunning starscape of a desert night.

COUPLES ARE ASKING: We've got answers

What's included when we book Indian Wells Country Club, and what will we still need to pay for separately?

Indian Wells Country Club in Indian Wells, California, offers all-inclusive wedding packages for up to 100 guests. They include mahogany Chiavari reception chairs and floor-length linens, a four-hour hosted bar with a professional bartender, cocktail hors d'oeuvres, your choice of plated entrées, a champagne toast and cake cutting. Tables, glassware, setup and staff are part of it too, and a dedicated private event director works with you from the first conversation to the last dance. Plan separately for the ceremony fee, which covers a one-hour rehearsal and white garden chairs, a 22% service charge, and AV equipment and cleanup, which carry extra fees.

Can we have both our ceremony and reception at Indian Wells Country Club, or will guests need to travel between them?

Yes, you can host both at Indian Wells Country Club. Say your vows outdoors on the 18th green, where date palms circle a lake fed by fountains and a waterfall, with the Santa Rosa Mountains behind you; outdoor ceremonies seat up to 500. Then head inside for cocktails in the Main Lounge with its crescent-shaped bar and dinner in the Main Dining Room, which overlooks the fairways. Bigger celebrations move to the Bob and Dolores Hope Ballroom, which opens onto a veranda for desert stargazing. Indoor receptions seat up to 500.

If we already have vendors we love, can we bring them to Indian Wells Country Club or do we have to use yours?

Catering at Indian Wells Country Club is handled by the club's own culinary team, with custom menus and bar packages. Bar service is in-house too, though you can bring your own wine for a $25 per-bottle corkage fee. For other vendors, the club works with a preferred list but can often welcome your own with approval, so share your favorites with the events team early.

What should we realistically expect to spend on a wedding at Indian Wells Country Club, and is there a minimum?

At Indian Wells Country Club in Indian Wells, all-inclusive wedding packages run $15,000–$21,500 per event for up to 100 guests, covering the bar, food, chairs, linens and more. The ceremony fee adds $1,000–$2,500, depending on the space you reserve, and a 22% service charge applies. Minimums vary by space, date and time of day, so your number shifts with when and where you celebrate. Planning something smaller? Small weddings in The Cove or the Main Dining Room start at $6,000, Sunday–Friday. You don't need to be a member to book.

How long do we get at Indian Wells Country Club, and when does the music have to stop?

Indian Wells Country Club is available for events daily from 6am to 1:30am, year-round, which leaves plenty of room for a late night. Amplified music is fine indoors, and it's allowed outdoors with volume limits, so plan your ceremony sound with that in mind and save the loudest dancing for the ballroom or dining room. Packages include a four-hour hosted bar to anchor your reception.

What makes Indian Wells Country Club different from the other venues near it?

Indian Wells Country Club gives you a private-club desert wedding without needing a membership. You can marry on the 18th green beside a palm-ringed lake and waterfall with the Santa Rosa Mountains as your backdrop, then celebrate in the same clubhouse. All-inclusive packages cover the bar, dinner, chairs and linens for up to 100 guests, and indoor receptions seat up to 500. A dedicated private event director stays with you from planning through the last dance.

Does Indian Wells Country Club work for a small wedding or an elopement, and what would that look like?

Yes, Indian Wells Country Club hosts small weddings. You'd celebrate in The Cove or the Main Dining Room, both with views of the Santa Rosa Mountains, water features and palm trees. Small weddings start at $6,000 and are available Sunday–Friday. It's a lovely way to get the club's desert setting and full-service team at a smaller scale.
