Reasons To Explore Garden Wedding Venues in California

 

Breathtaking Backdrops

Garden wedding venues in California provide stunning, vibrant, and magical backdrops. Bright florals and lush pines create a natural, magical setting that will make you and your guests feel like you’re in another world.

Every view throughout Twenty Mile House’s 200 forested acres of towering trees and growing flora is picturesque and unforgettable.

The soft light and organic beauty help create a timeless experience you’ll treasure for a lifetime. Use the bright colors, soft florals, and greenery to your advantage to create a magical space you and your guests won’t forget.

 

No Curfew or Noise Ordinances

A great perk to our garden wedding venue is the ability to celebrate all night long without worrying about a city curfew or noise ordinance.

Unlike many other traditional wedding venues that require you to lower music at a specific time, Twenty Mile House allows for festivities into the night at our garden wedding venue location.

Don’t worry about having to shut down your party at a certain time. Instead, you and your guests can party late into the night and simply walk to your on-site accommodations when you’re ready.

 

Intimate Atmosphere

A breathtaking garden wedding venue adds a level of intimacy you don’t necessarily get when you’re surrounded by four walls. The personal, quiet atmosphere of a garden allows couples and guests to be fully present with the people they love the most.

Whether you’re having a large ceremony or a micro wedding in California, a garden venue allows the space to feel intimate and peaceful. Plus, the garden atmosphere brings a natural beauty to the space, so you don’t have to stress about decorations.

Allow Twenty Mile House to bring you and your friends and family closer together outside of a traditional wedding space.

 

Natural Beauty and Decor

A garden venue is perfect for couples who want to utilize their venue space as part of their decor and ambiance. If you love lush greenery, vibrant flowers, and towering tree canopies, the natural beauty of a garden is hard to beat.

Spend less time worrying about the perfect floral centerpieces, how to decorate your aisle, and where to perfectly place furniture—a garden backdrop naturally does all of this for you.

We can help ensure that everything feels intentional and unique to you. For couples who don't quite fit the ballroom mold, Twenty Mile House has what you’re looking for.

 

Eco-Friendly

The natural setting of a garden wedding offers sustainability in a beautiful and practical way. No need for elaborate decor, artificial lighting, and oversized pieces. Instead, let the garden and grounds work in your favor, minimizing your environmental footprint without sacrificing necessities and beauty.

As a certified carbon-free garden venue and Green America-approved business, Twenty Mile House crafts custom weddings with a commitment to limiting our ecological footprint and preserving our precious natural resources. We source flowers and farm-to-table cuisine from our local small business vendors.
