Country Club Elegance just minutes from Sacramento
Holds ceremonies and receptions
Elevated Country Club Experience
A luxury golf course and event venue, El Macero Country Club is an elevated backdrop for your dream day in Davis, CA. It has a warm and welcoming atmosphere, and it's also just 15 minutes from Downtown Sacramento.
Options That Let You Choose Your Own Adventure
The Oaks is the stunning outdoor venue where you can have your ceremony or reception under half-century-old oak trees that provide natural canopy vibes. The banquet room faces the 18th hole with massive sliding glass doors opening onto an attached patio, making it perfect for that romantic indoor-outdoor flow. Or if poolside dancing under market lighting and stars sounds more like your vibe, the clubhouse pool awaits. Indoor seating maxes out at 140 people, so it's ideal for that sweet spot between intimate and full celebration mode. Lock in the fit and the glam in the ultimate get-ready prep suite.
The Services That Handle Everything So You Don't Have To
At El Macero Country Club, you get a banquet captain overseeing your reception, an on-site Event Director managing logistics, and professionally uniformed and experienced banquet staff. They provide banquet and round tables, china, flatware, linens, glassware, plus tables for cake, gifts, and signing. The dining ranges from casual to gourmet with cuisine that's genuinely superb, and they'll also hook you up with preferred vendor suggestions. Complimentary self-parking is included. With a thoughtful approach that shows they think of the details, the team makes your wedding day feel seamless instead of stressful.

This hidden gem is definitely worth checking out as a venue for wedding/reception! We booked our wedding and reception with EMCC and it was the perfect choice for our special day! ...
Morgan's attention to detail is superb! She provided us with all the options and made the process a breeze with how straightforward, open, and direct she was in answering all my questions, and trust me I had a ton of questions, but Morgan was very patient and accommodating! The grounds are stunning at this venue - it has all you need and more plus it photographs beautifully! If you're looking for an all-inclusive venue check out EMCC!

El Macero Country Club (EMCC) is the best and it was the most perfect place for us to have our wedding. Steve and Kasey were such a joy to work with in planning our special day.
...
We did extensive research of venues and their locations before scheduling in-person tours. Both of us have lived in Davis since we were kids and having our wedding in Davis made it even more special. We also have experienced the top quality service of EMCC several times previously and not once were we disappointed. If their food, service, and location were great for those previous dinners, it would be phenomenal for a wedding. Ultimately we booked our wedding here because it was local and we knew 100% that the food and service was going to be outstanding. I can happily say it was above our expectations and absolutely amazing!
The venue has beautiful golf course scenery with several prime spots for photos. We ended up taking our photos in front of the fountain/pond between Hole 3 and 4. We had stunning photos at this spot and I highly recommend this spot for your wedding too. The venue works well with several different wedding themes and décor (see photos from our wedding). There is no “bridal suite” but they do have a nicely decorated bathroom off of the banquet room that looks very fancy in photos (see attached). We did originally get dressed in the women’s locker room which was quite nice but a room without windows while I am stressed makes me even more anxious. There is no need to rent a tent for a plan B just in case it rains. Our plan B for wet weather was to have the ceremony in their breezeway with the scenery of the golf course in the background. Luckily on our wedding day it was just extremely windy. EMCC was on top of everything before/and during any occurrences of possible setbacks due to the wind.
The staff is so attentive friendly and genuinely cares about providing exceptional service and having your wedding be what you’ve dreamed it to be. One of the venues we visited felt like they were trying to book as many weddings as possible and we did not feel like they genuinely cared whether or not we booked our wedding there. Not at EMCC. EMCC wants your wedding to be a special and one of a kind experience.
With a beautiful venue, friendly attentive staff, amazing (seriously- AMAZING!) food that fits within any type of budget, EMCC is the perfect place for your Sacramento area wedding. We 100% recommend EMCC for your wedding or event venue. You should really call them today for a tour and consultation; it is a gem of a place in the lovely college town of Davis.
Kasey, Steve, and the rest of EMCC staff, thank you so much for providing exceptional service and being a top example of what professionalism is. I very much enjoyed planning our wedding with you and I look forward to attending many more events and meals here.
