My husband and I could not have imagined a better wedding experience and we are so grateful we chose to have our special day at the beautiful Secret Garden! We got married on December 14, 2024 and it was the most beautiful day we could have imagined! We booked the venue over a year in advance and throughout the entire planning process, the entire team was so available and responsive. As the day approached, we met with our day-of coordination Laura and she was truly amazing!! She helped me create the day of my dreams and was very prompt in responding to any of our concerns. She helped bring our vision to life and I am so grateful!! The very inclusive experience at The Secret Garden was also so helpful. We ended up going through our own food vendor for BBQ for dinner, but everything else was seamless and really helped ease the wedding planning stress. The photography and videography team was so amazing and captured our day so beautifully. I still cry tears of joy looking at our pictures and videos from the special day! :') The DJ services provided were also amazing and we couldn't have been happier with DJ Jason Lyons! Overall, we could not be happier with our experience at The Secret Garden. It was worth every penny to marry my best friend at such a beautiful place surrounded by everyone we love!! :)

Bryce, My wedding day was perfect and amazing and I feel so blessed to have chosen Tijeras Creek for our October wedding this year. The day of the wedding was amazing. Everything ran smoothly and we know a large part of this was because of you and your hard work behind the scenes. You had promised our friends and family who needed help to get down to the ceremony would receive VIP treatment, and sure enough, they did! They all commented about the kindness and friendliness of the staff who escorted them in the carts. Please thank your staff for their wonderful attitudes and meeting the needs (and wants) of all the guests. I truly appreciate all you have done! It has been almost two months and we are still talking about the wonderful day. There is a sparkle in my eye when I talk about the magic of that day. It truly was a fairytale wedding and it was amazing. My husband said it was the best day ever!

The Jewel of Ortega is an absolute dream. From the minute the venue manager responded to our inquiry, we were over the moon about this place. It checked all our boxes for a retreat style wedding for our wedding party, parents and grandparents, in a nature-filled spot in Southern California but not difficult to get to, customizable to our vision and desires, and with an authentic and laid back team. Before we left our first venue visit we knew we would sign. The previous venue manager was very flexible with our requests and everyone we worked with on the approved vendor list was incredible and excited to go back to The Jewel, although we did appreciate that we had the option to choose others too. A month before the wedding, said manager left the venue and we were so nervous about how the transition to the new manager Sally and her team would go, especially as we were planning a DIY wedding from abroad and had only visited the venue twice. The handover was absolutely seamless and turned out better than we could have ever imagined - which is a testament to the ownership. Sally and her crew worked their tails off from start to finish that weekend and looped us into every decision in a productive manner. They stepped up big time when our wedding coordinator didn't deliver. They made all of our guests comfortable and we all felt like we were home for the weekend, which everyone complimented us on. It was just a pleasure to get to know them as people too, really. Before we even left the venue, we were coming up with reasons to come stay again. Thank you and we will be back!!

We had the absolute pleasure of hosting our wedding at Laguna Village, and we can’t recommend it enough! From start to finish, everything exceeded our expectations. Dayna was an absolute superstar throughout the entire wedding preparation process. Her calm, detailed, and organized approach ensured that every little detail was taken care of, allowing us to relax and enjoy our special day. On the wedding day, Dayna was a true professional, making sure everything flowed seamlessly. I can’t say enough good things about her and her ability to help create such a magical day! The food and bar service were nothing short of spectacular. A special shout-out goes to Andrew at The Cliff restaurant, who was fantastic during our food tasting and on the big day. He made sure the service was impeccable and that everything ran smoothly. His professionalism and kindness really stood out. Our DJ, Gus, had the entire crowd dancing all night long, creating an incredible atmosphere for everyone to have an amazing time. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend Laguna Village, and The Cliff for anyone looking to have the perfect wedding day!
