  • Up to 100 guests

Oakwood Creek was built in the 1930s by WW Wood and his wife Leanora. Wood drove a truck that hauled dairy milk from the outlying ranches into the town of Julian. Later on, Wood would operate B&L Liquor on the main street. The remains of W's garage are still very apparent on the property today, along with his goat shed & stables. We have one of the last intact water towers in the historic district. The property has been preserved to reflect the period in which it was built. This beautiful venue sits atop a picturesque knoll overlooking the historic town of Julian. Sherry Horton, owner of Oakwood Creek Celebrations, offers signature style that everyone—no matter their affair—will find "oh so easy". Growing up in rural Ohio, Sherry brings the style of country that is reminiscent of simpler gracious time, learning from her grandmother Emma Barrett of all things romantically beautiful. Sherry’s work has been featured in Country Living Magazine, Where Women Create, and San Diego Magazine.

Why you'll love this venue

  • Pets can join the celebration
  • Creates a sense of togetherness

Oakwood Creek made our wedding dreams come true...if you are looking for a rustic, charming, cozy, and intimate venue, look no further - you have found it in Oakwood Creek. As a couple that paid for our wedding ourselves, finding the perfect venue, location, setting all within budget started out challenging. But after one tour at Oakwood Creek, we knew right away we found our venue. (It actually was our first and only tour, that's how certain we were.) We had 35 guests (planned for 40) and it was the perfect size. My husband and I only wanted our closest friends and family so this venue was perfect for us. We were able to get plate rentals through the venue and coordinated all of our vendors through Oakwood Creek. The entire team at Oakwood Creek is amazing. I definitely had a few moments of tears before the wedding after 100% rain was forecasted on my wedding day but the team pivoted everything indoors for the reception and we were able to do the ceremony outside. They all kept me grounded and answered every single one of my questions (there were MANY) lol! If you are looking for not just a stunning venue but also a wonderful and kind team that will make the best day of your life even more memorable, definitely schedule a tour at Oakwood Creek and book your wedding day now!

Let me start off by saying, I was a girl who never cared to get married, until I found Sacred Mountain Julian. I knew immediately from their photos, I needed to book my wedding there. Right when they announced their 2023 reservations were open, I immediately booked a walk through and basically booked my fall wedding. First off, the Sunset Plateau is so amazing and breathtaking to say your vows. I specifically told my photographer that I wanted to take as many photos possible on the property. Every area offers photos ops of your liking. The team there is amazing to work with. I recommend visiting the property to see the beauty for yourself.

We hired DJ Kaleb to DJ our wedding and reception. We couldn't imagine a more seamless process. From the beginning, Kaleb was very communicative, very open to any ideas we had, and really enjoyable and fun to work with. He let us give him a solidified list of songs along with our full wedding vibe (funky/disco). Kaleb understood the assignment. He played all of the songs we really wanted to hear while also finding some other songs that fit our vibes to a T....also made sure he didn't play songs we didn't want to hear. We asked him if he could give our wedding guests certain queue's and guide the wedding on the mic...the day before, we even asked him to say a few things word for word on the microphone. He did just that and absolutely killed it. Dancing DJ productions was a very communicative, organized, and professional company throughout...plus had a very competitive price. Thanks so much for making our big day so special and groovy!

If you are looking for a fun and talented artist for your wedding hair and makeup look no further! Heather was so awesome to work with for my wedding earlier this month. She did a fantastic job bringing my vision to life, I felt so beautiful! I'm super glad I did a trial session because I really got to fine-tune what I wanted and get to know Heather too. But even with my bridesmaid's and my mom's hair and makeup on the wedding day she did a fantastic job and was very accommodating to what they wanted. I would 1000% recommend working with Heather, she is so sweet and so talented!

DJ Conner was absolutely amazing and my husband and I couldn't be happier with the dancing music and all the music played throughout the evening. He listened to our music needs, which were not the clearest at times, but nonetheless he came up with a great playlist that fit the diverse age range and what we were envisioning. It seemed that all the guests were dancing on the dance floor at some point in the evening. Just recently a guest from the wedding reached out commenting how Conner was the best wedding DJ they have ever heard. Conner brings a cool, sophisticated vibe that is truly great for all age demographics. Additionally, Conner was super professional, on time, and had state of the art sound equipment. He also did an incredible job micing the night and keeping the pace. The fact that I didn't want the night to end speaks volumes to how much I enjoyed our wedding and a big part of that was the music. Hiring the right DJ is one of the best wedding decisions we made and was also way more cost effective than a live band. To wrap this up, we are so thankful Conner decided to take his DJ talents to the wedding industry. I am sure his business will take off. Thank you Conner, we will always remember how you made our night so special and my brother's EPIC speech :)

I've been djing since I was 15 years old. I had a fascination for parties and events at an early age. I tagged along with my brother who dj'd at house parties back in the early 80's. I was hooked after seeing how much joy the music brought out in the crowd. I started buying my own 12" records, and it evolved into doing my own gigs: house parties, jr. high & high school dances, colleges, raves, underground parties, night clubs, weddings, corporate events, and so on. I started my DJ business in 1987, and have been honing my craft now for 3 decades. Thirty plus years later, I continue to love what I do. Now let's get the party started.

Thanks for visiting Breezy Day, we are so happy you are here! We are a sister team in San Diego, committed to helping you make your engagement & wedding day a breeze! WE CANNOT WAIT TO GET TO KNOW YOU!

We got married last weekend and Courtney, the founder of Breezy Day, was our coordinator. I truly cannot overstate how incredible she was to work with - she made ALL the difference in the day and how smooth it yet. We kept a moderate budget for a traditional wedding and did a lot of it with the help of friends and family, and I truly think that the outcome being SO good was partly because of Courtney. She was so well worth adding that line item in our budget. Her knowledge, sunny and cheerful attitude, efficiency, and thorough attentiveness made it so we could actually enjoy our wedding, instead of worrying about anything else or any little issues. Having a professional makes all the difference. She just made it all happen. If you want to relax on your wedding...she's your gal! My husband was very hesitant and resistant to having a coordinator and his view on it has completely shifted because of how great she was. She also took some fun photos for us that turned out so cute, and we have those in addition to our photographer and videographer. And, if you're looking into the Thursday Club in Point Loma, she is the preferred coordinator for a reason!! She really is the best! BOOK HER!

Hi! My name is Ayleen and I have been a makeup artist for 5 years. In my few years of experience I have been able to learn a lot from working in photoshoots, along with other artists and at countless weddings. From my first bridal makeup I’ve done on a close friend, I knew that’s what I wanted to do as my job. It took a few years to build my career and I am so glad I chased after my dream of becoming a bridal makeup artist. My favorite part of what I do is being able to be a part of such a special day in your life and there’s nothing that makes me happier than making girls feel their best.

Awarded Best of Zola
Ayleen is such an amazing makeup artist and person with a tremendous talent for making any bride look and feel like an absolute queen. I found Ayleen through social media and instantly knew that she was going to be my girl. Her work is simply unmatched in the industry. Something that I love about Ayleen is that she is so dedicated to her work that she is constantly evolving, learning new techniques, improving her skills, and applying that to her work so you can feel confident that you truly are getting the best of the best. Ayleen has such a calming nature and made me feel so at ease on my wedding day even though I was running late. And once the reveal happened I was literally stunned with how beautiful my makeup turned out. To top it off, my makeup lasted PERFECTLY all day and night through all the tears and sweat (it was in the 90s in Temecula). If you are a bride looking for a makeup artist seriously look no further. Ayleen is a true artist and such a sweet person. It’s a guarantee that you will be so happy you found her.

If you want to spend your day savoring, being with your people more than taking the perfect insta photo, and can't wait to dive into life with your partner - I am your GAL! You'll look back on your day seeing the emotion, the connections, and the still moments that you were present for, with me as your photographer. I also am a pair for those who consider themselves "awkward" or "doesn't like themselves in photos." With my guidance, attention to detail and direction, we are a pair! I would love to hear about your day to see if we're a fit! Can't wait to hear from you!

We were completely overwhelmed when we saw our wedding pictures! The photos' color, clarity, and authenticity perfectly capture what we remember of the day. There are also great shots of things we didn't remember, like us canoodling in the venue's background. We felt like Katherine was part of our wedding party, not just a vendor. She was great at directing us for group photos, ensuring everyone was in the right spot without feeling rushed. She is funny and a total photography pro, and now we want her to take all of our images. By the end of the wedding, we had friends asking for her information and complimenting her left and right. She helped everyone stick to the timeline, adjust clothing, engage children, and remind everyone to laugh, breathe, and smile!

After booking my wedding venue early this year, I found Serene Events and Design on my venue coordinator's recommended vendor list, which led me to Korina. Right from the start, she responded so promptly and professionally that I was genuinely impressed by how on top of everything she was. Since I didn't grow up in the U.S., planning a Western-style wedding felt unfamiliar and overwhelming. I had my own ideas and vision but wasn't sure how to bring them to life. Korina was the only planner I reached out to, and I felt so lucky she was available. It really felt like fate to have found such a dependable and supportive planner. From the beginning, I felt completely overwhelmed, but Korina's guidance, timelines, monthly to-do lists, and vendor recommendations helped me get on track. Balancing work, life, and wedding planning was not easy, but Korina's support made it all so much more manageable. I knew early on that I wanted to share my experience so that future brides could find and trust her just like I did. After reading her reviews and seeing photos of her work, I knew Korina was the one. What stood out most was how Korina respected my personal style and was willing to coordinate many design and planning elements to match my vision. She made me feel heard every step of the way and went out of her way to ensure that each detail - from table linens and napkin colors to dinnerware - aligned perfectly with what I imagined. You can tell she genuinely cares about her brides and takes pride in making each wedding unique and true to the couple. On the wedding day, Korina and her assistant, Eileen, were amazing. Their attention to detail and commitment to making everything run smoothly meant I did not have to worry about a thing. I am someone who easily gets anxious and caught up in the details, but with Korina and Eileen, I was able to relax and fully enjoy every moment with my husband, family and friends. After the wedding, Korina and Eileen handled the packing and cleanup so efficiently, it was impressive. Thanks to Korina, my wedding day was beautiful, stress-free, and exactly what I had dreamed of. I am grateful to Korina, Eileen, and the entire team for everything they did to make it all come together. Thank you, Korina, for making my dream wedding a reality!

Angeline understood our vision from the very first time we spoke to her! She sent us a moodboard and made us mock ups in her home, and we knew then that she'd be the one to help us bring our dream wedding to life. She took to heart our requests (woodsy, rustic, wildflowers) and even provided great advice and recommendations (not so much baby's breath!). We're so grateful she undertook our small wedding in the mountains. I really believe without her flowers, it would not have been the same. Thank you Angeline!

We could not be more happy with Forgotten Barrel! Alyssa was wonderful and the vendors included in their all inclusive package (catering, dj, & dessert) were great to work with.

Styles by Joanne was born out of a desire to pursue my passions in the beauty and styling industry. Starting out as an individual stylist, I quickly realized the demand for my services was growing by the day and that I couldn't do it alone. So, I decided to build a team of like-minded stylists who share my passion for making people feel confident by enhancing their natural beauty. Our ultimate goal is to make our clients leave feeling confident and radiant. We're continually striving to elevate our skills and knowledge so that we can continue to exceed our clients' expectations and offer the same wonderful experience across the board.

Joanne and Jamie were easily one of my favorite vendors for my wedding. I got married April 7, 2024 and had my hair trial on February 3. I found Joanne’s company through one of my Instagram friends, who also got her hair done with them. I was immediately taken with them for two reasons: 1) They had no minimum person requirement 2) they were so so so quick in their email communications (something I found was super rare when looking for hairstylists). Immediately upon visiting for the trial, I knew I was in good hands. They were both so sweet and really took into consideration my preferences, veil & dress, and venue when making suggestions. I felt so comfortable with them (and they even gave me some tea!). On the day of the wedding, Jamie arrived promptly at our getting ready location and was quite efficient and effective in doing my hair. I never was worried that my hair would fall out during the wedding and the fact that I never once thought about my hair all night is a testament to how well it was done. And as I look back on my photos, I constantly look at my hair, impressed by how well it stayed curled and beautiful all day (even as I danced for 2 hours straight). I could never recommend Joanne and Jamie more for your big day.
