The venue was absolutely beautiful. The vendors: Ol Town Bakery, Brian from icustomsdjs, food at redwood canyon and Dana's Florist were beyond perfect and professional and very easy to work with. They made the day calm but fun!

Redwood Canyon venue was magical! The greenery was beautiful for our colorful wedding party!
Allison was our coordinator and she was AMAZING! She was so so so helpful in the weeks leading up to and especially on the day of our wedding! She was SO prepared with anything we needed in her fanny pack! Allison has such a calming presence and took care of everything.
Liv was our event captain and helped us close out the night, she was so helpful and took care of everything with packing decor so we didn't have to worry about a thing!
The food at Redwood Canyon was SO good!! Our guests were raving about how incredible the buffet and prime rib was!
It really was the best of day and night of our lives and we owe it all to the staff at Redwood, especially Allison and Liv! Thank you for everything!

One word: Perfect. As someone who suffers from severe anxiety, I can honestly say I have never felt more at-ease and confident than while working with the Wedgewood Weddings Redwood Canyon team -- they always had our backs, kept us on track, and made us feel taken care of. From the first venue visit, during the planning meetings, all the way until the rehearsal and wedding day, the professionalism, clear communication, planning resources, and organized approach made for a seamless experience.
We worked with Allison as our Wedding Planner and Coordinator and I firmly believe that she is one of the main reasons our wedding went as incredibly as it did. Redwood Canyon, provides a planning binder as soon as you sign that includes monthly checklists ahead of the wedding to help keep you organized in between planning meetings. It is also filled with valuable information about the wedding planning process, examples, vendor questions, and general guidelines. It helped us structure the planning process without losing the ability to truly personalize our event. Every meeting we had with the planning team was concise, direct, and organized -- it helped us stay on track throughout the process and gave us the opportunity to discuss ideas and ask for advice (which they are also more than happy to give via email). Super responsive and accommodating -- we were so impressed with how easy the process was. We also partnered with their recommended Bakery, DJ, and Florist as part of our vendor team, and the coordination between venue and vendors was absolutely seamless...by the time the week of the wedding rolled around all the main aspects were locked in and we knew the event was in good hands.
The wedding day itself was perfect. Allison served as our Day-Of-Coordinator, and together with Jacoby (co-coordinator), Liv (banquet captain), Liz (banquet captain), and rest of the team (cooks, servers, bartenders) we had the most incredible wedding. We arrived at the agreed-upon time on the day of the wedding, and from that moment onwards, the Redwood Canyon team took over to deliver the best experience. They were organized, calm, kept us well hydrated and fed, and kept everything on track for us all night. We were able to confidently hand off the reins -- we didn't have to think of anything all day other than having a good time and enjoying our day as much as possible, trusting that all the logistics were in good hands.
Overall, the venue itself was gorgeous. We had our ceremony in the Arbor Lawn, our Reception in the Grand Ballroom (we initially chose the venue primarily because of the dance floor), and rented out the Rose Room for the Cocktail Hour. Everything was included and beautifully decorated with all our desired personal touches, the food and drinks were delicious, and the planning and coordination services must be some of the best in the business. I can't imagine a more incredible experience than what we had and am so thankful for the Redwood Canyon team's care and professionalism -- especially Allison, who we were fortunate enough to work with from first meeting through the day-of. The wedding day went off without a hitch and I couldn't recommend the Redwood Canyon team more <3

This was the single greatest decision we made in the planning process. Wedgewood as a company takes care of so many details while still being entirely customizable all for a reasonable price. They have different packages you can select from. We chose the middle package, which had the catering, DJ, open bar, coffee/tea, champagne toast, staffing, basic linens, tableware, and fresh floral centerpieces all included in the per head price. The Redwood Canyon location in particular has an incredible team. Everyone is so responsive during the planning process and help to keep you on track with all the details. We had a phenomenal experience from start to finish and I can't speak highly enough of them! Allison and Jacoby were our day of team and they were both incredible! It is a beautiful location with plenty of parking, outdoor ceremony option in a gorgeous enclosed/private garden, and indoor reception hall with a dance floor and plenty of space. Definitely worth a tour at the very least!!

GET MARRIED HERE, FRIEND. We had our wedding at Redwood Canyon on 06/29/2024. I literally have nothing but glowing things to say about our experience. Before we signed our initial contract, I was worried that the pre-packaged wedding experience might turn out to feel generic, but I couldn't have been more wrong. Our wedding looked and felt entirely like us, and the design details we created brought out our unique style in every way. The entire coordination team, along with the affiliated vendors (florals, draping, cake, DJ), were phenomenal. The space was stunning (we also had literally perfect weather and the ceremony site was so beautiful). Our guests RAVED about what a fantastic wedding it was -- multiple told us they felt it was the best food they had ever had at a wedding, and we agreed. Our DJ Ronnie from iMobile DJs understood the assignment perfectly -- we had a fusion Punjabi/Southern American wedding -- and kept our guests on the dance floor until literally midnight even though we had an earlier ceremony in the morning and everyone was exhausted. Our coordinator Allison was so sweet and thoughtful and went above and beyond to make us feel as special and unstressed as possible. Our cake from Old Town Danville Bakery was THE most beautiful and delicious wedding cake I've ever had, and working with Karen was a delight. Our florals were from Dana's Florist and they not only looked INCREDIBLE, it was also so much fun Working with Dana and her staff to design our dream florals, and getting extra florals was not cost prohibitive at all. The fact that we had the wedding of our dreams AND it was less expensive than literally every other option we considered made it even sweeter. Honestly, 10/10. Get married here

Every aspect of our special day exceeded our expectations from the stunning surroundings and the venue to the impeccable service. Mari and the Redwood Canyon team went beyond and above for our wedding day. They made our venue looks so beautiful, more than I could ask for. Everything was done perfectly and according to the plan. They we ready for any type of situation for our wedding if the weather changes and they walked us through the whole plan. I highly recommend this venue to all my friends and family. Thanks again for your hard work :D

It's taken me a long time to come to terms with my wedding day at Redwood Canyon. I got married here in April of 2022.
First off, the grounds and the venue are gorgeous. The planning process was mostly a breeze (minus the DJ) and the staff were very helpful. The food was absolutely delicious. They set up our decor in the banquet hall really well, everything was beautiful.
But so many things went wrong. They supply the DJ for you. After trying for months to get in contact with him, he finally reaches out to us a month before the wedding. We told him exactly what we wanted to walk down the aisle to, and he said it would be no problem. Our song was "Home" by Edward Sharpe. It was a song that starts out with some whistling then goes into singing. We told him we wanted the song to either end or loop back around at the end of the first chorus. He said that was no problem. He never sent us the final cut of the song despite us asking multiple times. On the big day as we started walking down the aisle, he played ONLY the whistling part, looped over and over with an abrupt cut in the middle. It sounded awful, so unprofessional, but it was too late.
The dressing room is near the back entrance, which I was told would be blocked off and that there would be security directing everyone where to go. Well it wasn't blocked off so several people walked in while I was getting dressed and saw me in my dress before the wedding.
I was told that the security guard would lead people into the ceremony section so that they would know where to go and my husband and I would have a little privacy for our "first look" on the golf course. Well that didn't happen either. When I walked out for my first look, I would say about 20 of my guests were standing on the course where we were about to take our first look photos. The security guard was just standing around, not telling people to go sit down so we could have our first look.
With all the craziness and stress of getting ready, I forgot my bouquet in the dressing room and realized it right before we were starting the procession. I asked the wedding planner, who was at my side and is provided by Redwood Canyon, if she could go get it. She said no. I said okay I will run back and get it, but she said it was too late and signaled to start the procession. There was nothing I could do so I walked down the aisle without my bouquet that I was so excited for.
About halfway through the reception, the wedding planner said she had to leave and someone else would be taking over for her. No one told us that would be happening. I never saw the new planner for the rest of the evening. After dinner, the DJ came up to us and asked us what we should be doing next, and we said we don't know? You don't have a schedule? Where is the wedding planner? He said he didn't have a schedule and he did not know where the planner was. So he just winged it.
The whole day was honestly so disappointing. So many things that were important to me, such as the procession song and the first look, were ruined. If I could go back in time, I would not have my wedding here.
Vendor response 03/20/2024
I am so sorry to read of your experience at our venue. We strive to provide a stress-free ...
wedding day for our clients and it looks like we missed the mark. I want to apologize that it is an experience that you continue to remember negatively. We appreciate your review so that we can continue to improve and communicate more clearly with our team. We wish you all the best!

We only had our reception at Redwood Canyon with Wedgewood. We had our ceremony at a church beforehand. We highly recommend Wedgewood and loved everything about our reception. Some of our guests told us that it was the funnest wedding reception they had ever been to. Everything was really organized and flowed seamlessly. The DJ company Wedgewood is contracted with did a really good job with everything, as well. We also loved our photographers from API, the company Wedgewood works with. The food and drinks were great, too.
Working with Wedgewood was really smooth and took away some of the stress of wedding planning since they do much of it for you based on your selections. They have reasonable prices. We also had amazing wedding coordinators. Our main coordinator was Mari, and we also worked with Kat. Both were extremely polite and helpful, and the whole team was easy to reach by email whenever we had questions outside of the 3 meetings that we had. The only thing I wish that Wedgewood did that I feel like they didn't really do was tell us to make Save the Date cards early on if we wanted to and give us some options for making them. We didn't end up sending any out, but we did make our invitations through Wedgewood, which went well. I do think that websites like The Knot have more options available for wedding invitations, however, so I recommend to look at other places for invitations to see what fits you best.
Overall, Wedgewood was the perfect company for us on planning our wedding, and we would not hesitate to recommend them. It was an amazing day for sure, and Redwood Canyon is a beautiful venue.

The entire process was straightforward, from your options to the packages and the pricing. There were no surprises leading up to the event or after. They make everything easy by scheduling the meetings and being prepared. All you have to do is make choices. They have many choices and can work with you to figure out precisely what you want. It was strange when people asked us how the planning was going, and we said everything was ready to go. Wedgewood takes a lot of the stress away. We only had to worry about decorations, and even then, we just let Wedgewood know what we had, and they could display and make everything work perfectly. We got to work with Kat, and she was amazing! She helped us plan the event, showed us examples, and explained everything well. During rehearsal, she was very helpful and helped us know where we needed to be. On the day of the wedding, she took control and made sure everything ran perfectly. It ended up raining on our wedding day, but Kat kept us updated on the weather and our options available. In the end the ceremony was perfect. During the reception,, Kat was always around to ensure everything was going well and we had everything we needed. It was so nice not having to do anything and being reminded/told what to do. Jovany took over after Kat and he was also great! He made sure we also had everything we needed and took great care of us! Once the event was over I was surprised with how quick they were able to break everything down, Jovany said he could have all of our decorations back to us in 15 minutes and he did it even faster. We have zero regrets on going with Wedgewood! It was money well spent for a very special event. I would highly recommend this venue! Thank you to Kat and Jovany but also everyone else that made everything go so smoothly!

We loved our wedding at Redwood Canyon with Wedgewood. The staff was quick to respond to our questions and concerns and made the planning process easy. Since we were planning a wedding from out of state the all-inclusive concept of Wedgwood was very appealing to us and made our planning streamlined and less stressful. All of the vendors through Wedgewood were great to work with. Many of our guests commented on how good the food and desserts were and the DJ was kept everyone on the dance floor all night! Zayra was our day of coordinator and she fantastic, she took the stress off of us and made sure everything ran smoothly. We cannot recommend Wedgewood enough!

Everything ran so smoothly from planning to the actual wedding day! The team was amazing to work with, especially Kat. The communication was great and they even gladly accommodated last minute changes the week of the wedding. We had our dream wedding with so little stress thanks to their help with the whole process. If we were to get married again, we would do the same thing all over with wedgewood and Kat as our day of coordinator! 100% recommend!

My husband and I are beyond grateful for the incredible team that made our wedding day an absolute dream come true. Every detail was executed flawlessly, and we couldn't have asked for a more perfect day.
From the moment we started planning, this team showed exceptional dedication and professionalism. Mari, in particular, worked her magic and ensured that everything went smoothly throughout the day.
What truly amazed us was the team's ability to handle all aspects of the event, even the challenge of working with children. Their patience and skill were evident as they effortlessly managed everything, allowing us to enjoy every moment without any stress or concerns.
If you're looking for a team that will go above and beyond to bring your wedding vision to life, look no further. We wholeheartedly recommend this team to anyone seeking an exceptional and stress-free wedding experience.

As we were searching for a wedding venue here in the Bay Area we knew what we were looking for-- somewhere that had a nice indoor ballroom area (since the wedding was in the Summer), would not be as much work (my wife is working and going through nursing so school so we knew we would have limited time planning), and was affordable-- Redwood Canyon by Wedgewood Weddings was able to meet all of this and exceeded expectations.
From our first meeting Adilyne and her team were very friendly, professional, and responsive (would always reply to emails/texts almost immediately). My wife had very specific things that she wanted for the ceremony and reception and Adilyne was able to bring this vision to life. She was very detailed in helping us prepare for the big day with checklists and check in's that made sure we didn't fall behind in the planning. She was also able to provide us with creative ideas when we weren't exactly sure how we wanted something. One of the things that we really loved about Wedgewood is that they have their own vendors that they provided that really had an understanding of the venue and what worked/wouldn't work (i.e. DJ (Jeremiah) knew exactly how to setup everywhere and we didn't have to worry about mic/sound issues, bakery (Karen from Danville Bakery) was very knowledgeable about venue and already knew how to work with our florist (Dana) to get us the cake decorated the way we wanted it; photographer/videographer were familiar with when the sun was going to set and knew the best places to take all of our bridal party photos and sunset photos). This immediate chemistry between the vendors made the planning process and the day of the wedding very smooth.
When it came to the day of the wedding, our vendors all did an amazing job and rarely had any questions for us other than what our vision was for certain things. If anything, they were the experts on the day/venue and provided us with the support and guidance that we needed even when things didn't go exactly according to schedule. Adilyne did a great job making sure to check in on the bride and groom while also making sure everything ran very smoothly. When we had any requests, Adilyne took care of it immediately. By the end of the night when she had left for the evening, Liz took over and did a great job in making sure that everything continued to move smoothly while also making sure all of our items were packed up nicely (they also loaded everything onto a cart for me so it was very easy to load my car the next morning).
All in all we had an amazing wedding and were able to enjoy our days with family/friends with little to no hiccups. We are very grateful for the experience and would highly recommend to anyone!

Ben and Jazmin Pudoff Review:
We loved Redwood Canyon!! From the wonderful scenery to the personnel and service. Touring was fun and Mari, our guide was wonderful in answering all our questions. Mari also followed up with us after our tour and she was able to stay connected to answer all our questions via email. I sent them sooo many emails with questions and the team always responded quickly and in a friendly manner to include Kat (who is part of the team). The planning process was less stressful with our Redwood Canyon team than what it would have been alone. They focused on the big stuff so we can focus on the smaller details. Our guests gave us many compliments on our ceremony site and venue all together. Our florists Danas Florals, which work with the venue went above and beyond in their professionalism, communication and caring. Dana was always there to answer all my questions and you can tell she wanted to make my vision a reality, which she did! I was in love with my flowers, they were so fresh and everything I wanted. The color pallet she created was EVERYTHING. In addition, she was extremely flexible in the planning process doing everything via email since we lived about two hours away from the venue.
We loved loved Mari, and Liz they were AMAZING and professional. Couldn't ask for anyone more understanding, patient, friendly, flexible and kind than they were. These two were on point with making us feel taken care of and checking in on us every step of the way. They listened to our needs as a couple and made things happen. Our guests noticed how great they were too because they mentioned it to us. I felt like everything was under control with Mari by my side and later Liz. As a bride and groom, we connected with our Coordinator and Banquet Captain, and that is essential. I felt like Mari and Liz genuinely care about our special day and making everything run smoothly to make us happy. Any couple who has Mari and Liz in the future are in great hands, you can tell they care about their role and the bride and groom.
Andy our API photography was EXCEPTIONAL, I mean wow, from his professionalism to his easy going demeaner to his creativity, he was a dream to work with! So happy it was Andy and Emily (his assistant was also great and sweet). Cannot wait to see our pictures. Both so attentive and open to what we wanted as a couple for pictures and willing to work with us.

I don’t even know where to begin this review. To start, I truly do not know what I would do without Wedgewood. I planned my wedding all on my own with zero knowledge on how to plan a wedding. After we chose Redwood Canyon, all I really had to do was create a vision. Then slowly I bought the decor but wedgewood literally did the rest. I gave everything to our Coordinator Adilyne (who was quite literally, the best coordinator a girl could ask for) and she did everything exactly how I imagined it. The day was absolutely perfect and I cannot recommend Wedgewood enough. Some things they definitely nickel and dime you on ($400 for fog machine, $550 for draping, $750 for “upgraded” chairs) but honestly, you save sooo much money in the long run.

The Coordinators at Redwood Canyon were amazing! They pride themselves in ensuring that the bride and groom don’t have to worry about anything their wedding day and they kept to that promise with us! Loved working with everyone on the Redwood Canyon Wedgewood team. Not to mention the venue is BEAUTIFUL! Their preferred vendors also made wedding planning very easy. A planner is provided for the bride and groom which definitely helped us stay on top of everything.

Our decision to get married was sudden. We were going to have a "courthouse" wedding, but my loved ones had a different idea. My eldest daughter started researching and found Wedgewood Weddings. BEST idea EVER!!!!
Our experience with this talented group of professionals was better than we could have imagined! We gave them one month to put together everything and they did it with precision and excellence! If it sounds like an exaggeration, it isn't. They handled it all: set-up, decorations, vendors (officiant, bakery, flowers, DJ), keeping the bride in "bridal mode" (versus worrying over guests), keeping the groom "chill", and let's not forget the food and beverages!
All of the guests (also NOT an exaggeration) have told us how wonderful our wedding was and what a wonderful time they had. We chose the buffet meal with carving station - and we have yet to have anyone tell us they didn't like the food. The signature cocktails we put together were EXCELLENT!!! Great bartender!
I have already recommended Wedgewood Weddings to friends with engaged children.
This is one venue where a 5-star rating is guaranteed to be well-deserved!

We had barely 8 weeks to plan our wedding… remotely! It was a destination wedding for us and we live overseas. We got to physically see the place and meet with the organizers only 10 days before but they were so organized and our zoom meetings were always productive. Every detail was covered so the day of the wedding was absolutely stress-free and we were pampered all throughout, from the time we arrived at the holding room until the reception ended. Although I didn’t get to do a tasting of the food, most of our guests raved about it. Everything just fell into place. I thought it was near impossible to plan a wedding from thousands of miles away but their team made it happen. They made our wedding just perfect!

My experience from the scheduling of the first tour, all the way through to the end of my wedding night was 99% amazing. (I'll get to that 1% in a moment.) The way that Wedgewood handles so much in-house made it incredibly easy to keep track of everything that needed to be arranged, fewer vendors I had to keep track of, and it made the budgeting process simpler.
Any time I sent an email with anything from one to twelve questions (or more!), I received a prompt, thorough, and friendly response. As a first-time bride and someone who has had the luxury of being a bridesmaid to low-maintenance brides, I had very little experience with the whole wedding process and there was so much involved that I didn't know a thing about until I started planning my own. Not only did they provide excellent support from beginning to end, but their whole system is designed to make it as stress-free and organized as possible.
I want to extend a HUGE thanks to our coordinator Mari, our banquet manager Jovany, our servers Manuel and Thea, as well as our bartender Roberto. They were all excellent and really went above and beyond to make our wedding day spectacular!
Okay, so as for that 1%. I do have a complaint about the security. Wedgewood automatically added a $300 security charge to our bill, which seemed perfectly reasonable. However, we had one security guard and she spent the entire wedding in her car, on her phone, parked outside the back entrance.
At one point, a bridesmaid left the locking bridal suite door open and my maid of honor found guests in there lounging on the couch. Now, realistically, there was not a single person in attendance that I didn't know personally and trust, but the entire wedding party had left phones, purses, wallets, etc. in that room so I didn't want anyone who wasn't explicitly given the code to be going in and out, plus my dog was crated in there and it was stressing her out.
Of course, we didn't expect security to memorize the faces of everyone allowed in there, however, my maid of honor is a highly non-confrontational person and wanted assistance in asking these guests to leave the bridal suite. After searching for the security guard with no luck, she eventually had to ask the bartender Roberto for assistance. (Thank you, Roberto!)
I did include this issue in my survey that Wedgewood sent me after the wedding and was also highly disappointed that I didn't hear anything back from them about this issue at all. Honestly, I think a refund of the security fee should be offered, but I would have been happy with at least an acknowledgement of the issue. In my mind, we paid for a service that we never received.
But yikes, I'm letting my rant run away on me! Overall, I really cannot recommend Wedgewood highly enough, hence the 5-star review despite having one gripe. The venue was beautiful, food was delicious, and all other service was top-notch. If you choose Wedgewood for your wedding, you will not be disappointed!

Redwood Canyon by Wedgewood Weddings is simply amazing. I would recommend that to all my friends colleagues and family.
The venue coordinators, and our event day coordinator, Kat, simply saved our wedding from the fate of being delayed by the flood and wind in the bay area. Kat helped reached out to vendors and coordinated a venue change so our wedding can happen on-time.
On top of that, the vendors selected by wedgewood is very professional and amazing. We really enjoy the flowers and the cakes. Wedgewood is the only package that we can find within our budget.

This team made our wedding an absolute breeze! They were prompt in responding to all of our questions and really took the time to make sure that my husband and I had everything we needed. Our day of coordinator, Adilyne, and banquet captain, Jovany, took such great care of us on the day of! Aside from the usual logistics, they made sure we were eating and fully enjoying ourselves the entire time. We couldn’t have asked for a better team to work with!

Absolutely wonderful experience. I can’t imagine how stressful planning a wedding must be *outside* Wedgewood. Everything is set up to make the process easy and enjoyable with so many ways to customize your day to exactly how you imagined it would be. The staff from day one were attentive, personable, and treated us like friends. A huge shoutout to our day-of coordinator Kat for all her help to ensure we were supported, happy, and in a position where we had ZERO stress. Furthermore, the pep talk she gave our daughter (8yo) when her nerves got the best of her right before the ceremony (she was our flower girl) meant so much. This day wasn’t just for us, it was for her too, so having the same level of care put into her experience will be something I will not forget. Our Captain, Liz was also phenomenal and made sure we had everything we needed and wanted for the day.
To the rest of the staff, you are all amazing. From every detail we had the PERFECT wedding.
To anyone considering Wedgewood… DO IT! And don’t forget to add the Grand Sparkler entrance!!

Redwood Canyon was the best decision we made in the entire wedding planning process. We went with the premiere package and got everything taken care of through Wedgewood -- food, drinks, cake, flowers, Save the Dates + invitations, and DJ were all included in this package. It was WONDERFUL!
We worked with a few different planners up until the final month when we were assigned to Mari. Everyone at Wedgewood was amazing, they all knew the answers to our questions so quickly, and were absolute experts from day 1. We felt so taken care of with them. Mari was a DREAM as our day-of coordinator, and Jovany was so kind and helpful as our Banquet Host the rest of the evening. We couldn't have asked for a better group of people to help us make our wedding special.
We got our flowers through The Flower Shop, which is Wedgewood's flower vendor. Erica was awesome! She made the most beautiful cascading bouquet for me that took my breath away. Everyone's bouquets and boutineers were so lovely. Our Wedgewood package included centerpieces and a piece for our sweet heart table, and we paid for the bouquets for the bridal party, bridal bouquet, and boutineers. It was very reasonable in price! We were so happy with Erica from The Flower Shop's work.
Wedgewood uses Danville Bakery for their wedding cakes which is what we used. I will say I was nervous because they didn't respond to our email confirming cake flavors for a while, BUT they are working on weddings, and are busy. We heard from them a week before our wedding, confirming our flavors and cake size. Not only was the cake was gorgeous, it tasted amazing! We even swung by there a week after the wedding to get some other baked goods because we loved them so much at the wedding.
Our DJ was Joseph and he was fantastic. Their company sent us an online form to fill out with music for every step of the process. It was so easy to fill out, and any music not listed on their system we were able to add via email or Spotify playlist. Joseph had a call with us the week before the wedding to confirm everything, and sent us spotify links to create playlists of our "Must Play" songs and our cocktail hour / dinner music. It was so easy, and Joseph had an amazing energy that radiated in the space. We loved him!
Living in the bay area, I've known people who have spent a lot of money on their weddings. It's understandable. Our wedding planning process was not only made easier with Wedgewood, but it also helped us a lot because we were able to save money (and time) by not having to go to outside vendors. Not only did we save money and time by going with Wedgewood, we also had a really beautiful venue with an amazing crew of people. We were so delighted by our experience with Redwood Canyon by Wedgewood Weddings, and I will continue to recommend them to everyone getting married!

My wife and I got married at Redwood Canyon in September and we are so happy we chose this venue. The ceremony site is secluded and intimate. The courtyard is spacious and wonderfully lit by strings of market lights. But most of all, the Wedgewood team was what made our day one to remember. Mari was our lead coordinator, and she made the entire process from venue intros to wedding day so easy. On the day of, Mari went above and beyond to make sure our ceremony and reception went smoothly. A few examples include celebratory drinks after our recessional, a selection of appetizers to snack on between photos, coordinating onsite transport for our elderly guests, and so much more. I also wanted to give a recognition to the catering team who prepared an allergy free meal for one of young guest using separate pans and utensils and confirming the preparation details with the parents.
TLDR: The venue is great, but the team is even better.

I highly recommend Redwood Canyon and thier team! We toured a bunch of places and we fell in love with this venue mostly because of the beautiful ceremony space. But, little did we know that this venue also has the most amazing and kindest staff members :)
All the ladies were so helpful throughout the planning process in answering my questions and responding to my emails. I loved how easy it was to work with all of them. Every time I reached out with a question, I'd get a response within couple of hours. Most importantly, everyone was so friendly and kind.
I planned my wedding day and all the details without a planner with just the staff's support. We were lucky to get an awesome day of Coordinator - Mari and Banquet Manager. Food was delicious, and we kept getting so many compliments. Everything went so well and flowed smoothly on my wedding day.
I also highly recommend their Bakery which came with the package. Karen was lovely to work with and she turned my inspiration photos exactly how I wanted.
If I had to go back in time and plan my wedding all over again would choose this venue and this lovely team in a heartbeat :)

The Redwood Canyon Wedding team was nothing but amazing, welcoming, and understanding. Planning a wedding during a pandemic was no joke but without this team, we wouldn’t have been able to fulfill our wedding dream! From
the moment we picked this venue to picking up wedding decorations the day after the wedding, they were very hands-on and supportive. I am
a pretty indecisive bride so I changed my mind gazillion times throughout the planning but Cassie our wedding coordinator, was such a trooper and stuck it through. She was very attentive and paid attention to the little details so she was able to capture what I had envisioned. It truly was such a wonderful experience! And the venue, the food, and everything in between. Our guests could not stop talking about the food and ambience of the whole place. Redwood Canyon golf course and the Wedgewood Redwood Canyon wedding team will always have a special place in our hearts!

We had an outstanding experience with this venue. The event coordinators are so organized and professional.

She executed all the decor exactly how I envisioned! She was there for us every step of the way and made our day the most perfect day we could have ever imagined. The banquet coordinator was so kind and helpful all throughout the evening. Our DJ was so awesome and fun! Our cake was literally the most amazing cake! I couldn't believe how incredible it was! Florals and drapery were so pretty! If you're thinking of booking Redwood Canyon - do it! You will have the best wedding day!

Having a day of coordinator made our experience less stressful (Kat was incredibly attentive and professional!) We used Wedgewood’s contact for the DJ who was great. Our guests loved the food and were very comfortable. We have amazing memories from our special day!

This venue is absolutely gorgeous. On top of being a gorgeous venue I had THE BEST coordinators. From the planning meetings to the wedding day, this team has been awesome. Every time I had a questions about what I can include or not include they would respond the same day and were always super kind and helpful.
When I arrived at the venue on my wedding day I was so in AWE at the team there and how much they helped set up everything for the reception to look perfect.
I am forever grateful to the Redwood Canyon team that helped me. They were a huge part on making my wedding day special.
Thank you Wedgewood Team!

I can't imagine having our wedding anywhere else because Wedgewood Redwood Canyon made everything perfect. From our first meeting with Zoe where we fell in love with the ceremony site, to one of the best days of our lives, you guys made it so easy. The ease of having an all-inclusive wedding package made wedding planning enjoyable and less stressful. The binder that we received with all the information that we would need could not have been easier to follow. Megan and the staff were always so helpful with any questions that we had, especially during these covid times and having to postpone our wedding to a year later. Planning all the details was fairly easy because of all the choices that were provided from linens to reception decor. Our final meeting couldn't have gone better with Kat. She was so thorough and made any nervousness or stress go away because she was just so knowledgeable and genuinely excited for us. Allowing us to have our two dogs be a part of our wedding was just the cherry on top. Being able to drop off our decorations the day of the rehearsal was very nice and knowing that the Wedgewood team would be handling everything made our wedding day extra special because we only had to focus on getting married and none of the decorating. Everything was just so beautiful. Kat was so attentive as our day of coordinator and always made sure to check in on us and asked if we needed anything. She made sure we had our food and drinks ready and even helped make sure my very anxious dogs had plenty of treats and that they were as comfortable as can be. Our night ended with Zayra and just kept the perfection going. She made sure we had all of our decorations all packed and ready to go, and even sent us off with a delicious care package that we definitely enjoyed that night. I really can't say it enough, but you guys made our wedding perfect. Thanks for everything!

We had our beautiful wedding at Redwood Canyon mid-September and we can't recommend this venue enough. Mari was our coordinator and she was fantastic to work with. Our wedding day went smoothly and my husband and I had the best time as well as our guests.
A few things we loved:
1. The decorations such as the draperies on the arbor and inside the ballroom were on point! We also added a wedding hoop feature behind the sweetheart table which was my favorite feature inside the ballroom. All these decorations were additions to our package and done through their preferred decorator vendor.
2. Guests loved all the food! From the hor d'oeuvres, to the prime rib, to the donut wall and tator tot bar, the food was great.
3. We loved the venue itself, from being able to have an outdoor ceremony to then moving the party indoors to the ballroom after. It gave me peace of mind knowing there was a backup plan for the ceremony if it rained for example or if covid restrictions reverted back to being more strict that there was an outdoor reception option (thankfully we didn't have any restrictions due to covid and we had a sunny/clear day). Everything was close to each other once you're in the ballroom (such as the bathrooms and bridal suite are right next to the ballroom) and there's plenty of parking. We took our couples' portraits after the ceremony outside on the golf course during golden hour and even after a drought year, the grass and trees were still so green in September. It made for a beautiful backdrop to our photos.
A few things I would change if I could go back in time:
1. Wedgewood's invitation selections are so outdated, I wish we excluded this option from our package. Our invitations we ended up ordering came out perfectly fine and shipped quickly but the only invite we liked was of course one of the most expensive options and the credit they gave us towards the invites barely covered half the cost.
2. We weren't crazy about their preferred floral vendor, the table center pieces (which were a part of the Wedgewood package) were very underwhelming. We also went with the same floral vendor for bouquets and boutaineers (these additions were not a part of the package and paid separately) and again, we were still underwhelmed. But the floral sprays for the arbor and bridge were beautiful and I'm glad we added those.
3. We went with their preferred cake vendor and though the cake was fine, there was not much of a wow factor to it. It was more plain than the inspiration photo I sent them. So if you're into simple cakes then they're a perfectly fine option. If you're looking for a more decorative/detailed caked, you may want to go with another bakery.
The above issues weren't deal breakers, I just want other couples who plan to have their wedding here a heads up on some improvements that can be made so they have the best day ever.

Working with Wedgewood Redwood Canyon in Castro valley was a dream! My husband and I ended up having to postpone when COVID ruined our original date of August 30th, 2020. The team worked with us with such kindness to make sure we could still have the wedding day we planned just with a different date, Aug 22, 2021. Bianca was exactly the person we needed. When my husband and I eloped secretly in Vegas and we then wanted to surprise everyone at our "ceremony", Bianca was wonderfully supportive and excited! She made sure we didn't have a single worry on our wedding day. The venue was gorgeous, the food was delicious, and the flowers were so pretty. All the teams/venders worked so well together, this is the best way to have a wedding!

I am beyond thankful for the team at Redwood Canyon by Wedgewood Weddings for making my special day one to remember.
Like many COVID brides, my wedding had bee postponed several times due to county and state regulations, making it challenging for us to have the wedding we had envisioned. My husband and I previously scheduled our wedding at a different Wedgewood location that was making it more difficult for us to have our guest count despite the changing tiers and regulations at the time. I am thankful that I was able to look outside of this venue at other Wedgewood locations and was so pleased to have been able to have my wedding with Redwood Canyon.
Upon our first tour, I was greeted by Bianca who immediately made me feel comfortable and excited as she reviewed all that this location had to offer. The ceremony site was located just at the bottom of a beautiful bridge and was not only quiet and shaded, but secluded despite the amount of golfers on site- on the day of the wedding, the golfers were no where to be found and were in no way a distraction. Additionally, Bianca showed my husband and I both event spaces- the ballroom and an outdoor courtyard. It was wonderful to know too that when booking the space, we were securing the date, not a particular event site. This meant that if we chose the ballroom first and later decided to be outdoors, they'd accommodate that change which was refreshing.
After securing our date, the Wedgewood team stayed in contact and continued to check in and reach out with important updates and details leading up to our wedding. Our coordinator, Sandra, was incredible. She made me feel so comfortable and relaxed, I felt as if I was planning my wedding with a close friend. She was kind, thoughtful, and professional. I loved my experience with Sandra and the entire Redwood Canyon by Wedgewood team. I would recommend this specific site to any bride and groom planning their future nuptials.

There was not one Wedgewood team member that we met who we did not enjoy working with!
From the moment we met with Megan back in Oct. 2019 to tour the venue, we knew immediately that we wanted to have our event at Wedgewood Redwood Canyon. We felt welcomed and celebrated - even for just showing up and learning more about the venue.
Bianca helped us finalize the booking and walked us through the planning binder and answered all of our many questions. She was also THE BEST day-of coordinator and took care of me and my girls (and the guys) like we were the stars of the show! She went out of her way to make sure we had everything we wanted/needed and was so positive and excited the entire time!
Zoe helped coordinate with our outside vendors and took the time to walk through the details with both me and the decor vendor to ensure that everything would go as planned.
Jonno was AMAZING and made the planning meeting so much fun! He thought about extra details that I hadn't previously thought about and I really appreciated his input.
And lastly (and certainly not least), Thea was the best banquet captain! She kept us on track the night of the reception and the guests loved her for serving them the delicious tater tots toward the end of the night.
We had a PERFECT evening and we could not have done it without the help of all the members of the Wedgewood Redwood Canyon team. Our guests have told us over and over again how much they enjoyed the wedding and how taken care of they felt by everyone who worked that evening.
A "thank you" just doesn't seem like enough to express our gratitude to the team! Our wedding was absolutely flawless and we, and our guests, loved every second of it!

**DO NOT BOOK HERE**I spoke with a coordinator before I booked and read the reviews and I am so glad that I did. Under NO circumstances will they ever give you your deposit back!! Even if you break up or have a death!! NEVER!! Read your contract carefully it states NEVER!! If the venue burns down, NEVER!! Why would you book at a place that steals money!! I mean if you have $10k to blow, hey than do. Again read the contract before you sign, ask the coordinator she has to tell you the truth, under no circumstances do they ever give money back. But hey it's not their fault if you break up, so the coordinator told me, along with you can always book a birthday party instead!! I'm sorry but what!!!

Marcus and I didn't know anything about planning a wedding. Everyone says that it is one of the most stressful things you can do. We felt like we were running around like chickens with our heads chopped off. Until we found Wedgewood Weddings. With Wedgewood weddings, it was easy and stress free. We initially met with Jonno and while the venue is beautiful, he really sold us. He was charismatic and personable. We could tell that he was very passionate about giving couples their dream wedding. We actually had a lot of fun planning and dreaming of our initial wedding. 2020 was going to be such a big year for weddings and I am so glad that we did not have to fuss over finding available vendors. We were able to bring home a binder and pick and choose what we wanted. It was all the fun of picking things out without the stress of actually planning anything. Wedgewood Weddings made it so seamless that it was easy for both of us to be involved and make every decision together.
Then, the world ended. All of a sudden, we are at a standstill at work, there are talks about a 15 day quarantine, toilet paper going missing! We were convinced that this pandemic would blow over and everything would be fine. Our wedding day was far enough in the future that we didn't have to worry about changing any of our plans. Then that 15 day quarantine turned into 7 months. Weddings were getting cancelled left and right. We were starting to feel the pressure and stress about what will happen by November. I remember laying awake at 4am, thinking about all the people that are involved in this wedding, all the money we have already deposited, all the uncertainty buzzing around. We felt guilty and selfish for worrying about whether or not we were still getting married in November. So, I decided to send Wedgewood a text (have I mentioned that I LOVE the text feature?) and by the next morning, Zoe calls to talk us down off the ledge. She assured us that everything would be okay and one way or another, we will get married.
Wedgewood was very gracious in how they handled this pandemic. They understood that while they have a business to run, they also have couples to take care of. Although everyone was scared and stressed about the unknown, Wedgewood really took the bull by the horns. They took a very difficult situation and came up with a solution that gave us confidence again. They listened to all our concerns and actually understood how we were feeling at the time. We had an entire team on our side and that provided us a lot of comfort. They gave us several different options and were more than willing to work with us. In the end, we were able to come up with a plan that worked for everyone. Ceremony only with a short cocktail hour. I felt very assured that everything would be as safe as possible.
I know that everyone says that weddings are never perfect and some things are bound to go wrong. Our wedding day was absolutely PERFECT. I cannot think of a single thing that I would change. The ceremony was beautiful and the short cocktail hour was enough for us to mingle with our guests. We were actually talking about how much we prefer this shorter event over what would have been a 6 hour wedding. Zoe was an amazing coordinator and made sure everything went according to plan. She constantly checked in with us to make sure we were doing okay. I cannot say enough great things about Zoe and the rest of the team!

We are so thankful for the most amazing wedding. Even in the middle of a pandemic, our coordinators made us feel so supported and taken care of. Due to COVID, we decided to change venues with just 3 months left before our wedding. Zoe from Wedgewood Redwood Canyon was there with us from our first tour, and we were lucky enough to keep her for our wedding day once we changed venues. Lauren from Boulder Ridge helped take over with planning when we changed locations. Both coordinators were our rocks throughout the process and were there for us up until the very last, nerve-wrecking moments. I can't speak highly enough of them!
I’d definitely recommend Wedgewood because of their easy wedding planning process. They have a list of recommended vendors they include in your package, but it’s also SO easy to take any out and go with your own vendors. They don’t charge you random fees like many other venues and their pricing is reasonable! Plus, you have a coordinator with you through the entire process. They helped me along the way with details I would have never thought of.
I’d also like to talk about Redwood Canyon as a location. It was so beautiful and even though we ultimately didn’t have our event there, we loved it. The intimate ceremony space is my favorite part. Walking over the bridge and then having a small, enclosed space for the ceremony is so special. I’d definitely recommend you check it out and see it in person.

Unfortunately, I now feel inclined to leave a negative review regarding my experience with Wedgewood Weddings/Z-Corp. I have waited to do this and hoped to have a positive response from Wedgewood Weddings/Z-Corp and have not received a call back or returned email to my follow up requests.
My fiance and I are extremely disappointed with their lack of a plan for their couples effected by the COVID-19 pandemic. We have experienced the same scripted, unhelpful, unaccommodating, and quite frankly heartless responses from the coordinators and management of this organization. We are not being heard, supported, or worked with in our particular situation. They have an unwavering stance to not refund our deposit even though they are not able to guarantee they can provide the services. We are months out from the date and they claim the money is going to their vendors (their vendors have not seen a dime of this over $5,000 deposit).
Wedgewood claims to want to help couples tell "their story" - well here is ours:
Unfortunately, we walked through their doors and gave them a 25% deposit to hold our wedding date 11 months in advance.
Unfortunately, the COVID-19 pandemic has taken over our lives and the date cannot be accommodated due to the group gathering restrictions.
Unfortunately, their ONLY alternative is to offer another date and demand more money.
Unfortunately, another date is not an option for us and we have requested the money back to help us exchange our vows on our same wedding day we waited almost a year for.
While I am completely open to receiving at least a partial refund they have decided they are completely entitled to the full amount (even though the signed contract does not cover this situation in any way).
I have to say their unwillingness to work with during these unsettling and unprecedented times will force us into further action. The negative financial impact the pandemic had on us is only further insulted by the lack of refund from a company who clearly is only looking out for themselves.
I plan to contact NBC Bay Area News on your side and will leave this negative review on the Knot as well. Additionally, we will explore our legal options to include majeure provisions, the doctrines of impossibility to perform, and frustration of purpose.
