The Pierpont Inn

answer questions and made us feel like everything was taken care of. This place was also wonderful because our guests were from out of town, so everything was in one place. The rooms were fantastic and being close to the beach just enhanced the weekend for everyone. We really enjoyed our experience and couldn't have pictured our big day anywhere else.

fic, it isn’t noticeable when everyone is chatting and the music is playing. The venue has a great flow from the ceremony, to cocktail hour to the reception. Along with the beauty of the venue, it is convenient for everyone. Our guests were thrilled by the location and grounds and guests who didn’t stay had an easy time finding parking and could leave their car if necessary. As many people know, The Pierpont Inn is going through construction, but it really isn’t noticeable. The hotel has made great efforts to hide the construction and work on other areas of the hotel, like the landscaping. The flowers, grass and outdoor area looked beautiful. Although the construction did make things a little nerve racking, the Event Planner, Nicole, eased all of my concerns. She was amazing! She returned all emails in a very timely manner, helped myself and parents with questions multiple times, and organized a perfect day. More times than not, she would anticipate my questions and have an answer for me immediately. Yes there were some bumps in the planning process, but they were minor and I trusted that Nicole would handle any and everything that came our way. Also, her assistant Jecca, was always very nice and available to step in and help too! The Pierpont Inn felt like they actually cared about the wedding and the execution. Myself and family didn’t feel like we were working with a corporate machine, which was great. All of the staff at the wedding were so kind and friendly. Also, in our bridal suite we had a very sweet gift basket with a hand signed card from them! I would 100% recommend The Pierpont Inn to anyone getting married in Ventura. It is affordable, beautiful and has an amazing staff! Thank you for making my day perfect!

ening, Oct 8th. My daughter and I, worked with Jecca Schmidt at the Inn on all the arrangements. Jecca is extremely professional, and easy to work with. When she said my daughter would have a perfect day, she was not kidding! We paid a per person rate, which included so much. Passed appetizers, a cocktail hour (you pay for alcohol), a complimentary suite for the bride and groom, champagne toast, plated or buffet dinner (we chose plated with filet mignon and lemon chicken), two bottles of wine per table (the red was Coppola Claret, which is my favorite), as well as beautiful table settings, and a fabulous staff. There was not ONE problem, and the evening was perfect! Between the Inn's staff, and the wedding coordinator who carried out the timeline, I had a stress free day, and was a guest at my daughter's wedding. The second review is regarding my cousin's stay at the Inn for 4 nights. They had traveled from Scotland to attend the wedding, and had booked in at the Inn. The rooms have been remodeled to bring them up to today's standards, and they raved about the staff and food at the restaurant. He said everything was excellent, and everyone was so nice. The third review is regarding the Spa House on the Inn property. You can rent it out through VRBO. I decided to put some of my family up there, so we rented it for a week. Although it is an older home, it is huge, with 4 bedrooms and 3 1/2 baths. The hotel owns the home, and although they cannot remodel it due to its historic status, they have furnished it with wonderful beds, and flat screen TV's, as well as all the other comforts of home. It was perfect. You have access to the pool and restaurant as well. My guests from the east coast, enjoyed hanging out at the pool with the kids, and even ordered food from the restaurant, which the staff delivered to them poolside. They said the ahi sandwich and salads were excellent. All in all, it was an amazing week at the Pierpont Inn. I HIGHLY recommend the Pavillion for any special occasion, and the hotel and restaurant for dinner. Wyndham Garden, thank you for breathing new life into this old gem of a place. I cannot wait until the restoration of the historic part is complete!!!

t, but planning with them was easy! On the wedding day the staff took care of everything, from laying flower petals down the aisle, to setting up our cupcakes during the ceremony. They even made sure we were able to eat a bit of everything by serving us (we had a buffet) - this was really nice since time really flew by! We stayed the night at their small cottage and it was beautiful. We highly recommend The Pierpont Inn for your wedding/celebration!

ly. We rented the house next to the reception building and that made all the set up and organization much easier. Would highly recommend this venue and the opportunity to work with Nicole.

lped organize the event. They were so organized. The communication was outstanding. They answered questions before I even thought to ask them. The reception area was perfect. Everything was set up on time exactly how we pictured it. The entire staff including servers were polite and professional. Guests raved about the food. We reserved a block of rooms for out of town guests who were all completely thrilled with their accommodations. The bridal party stayed in the Vickers Estate the night before which was a perfect spot for all the bridesmaids to get ready. The 3 bedroom, 3 bathroom estate provided plenty of room for the girls to do their hair and makeup and for photos to be taken. I highly recommend this venue for an event.

ing to chat about the big day and is very accommodating. She is also a all around wonderful person with a friendly smile. The Rose Garden where we were married is beautiful. I felt like I was in a fairy tale. The reception site called The Pavilion. This is a beautiful building with its exposed beams and twinkle lights. It made the romantic feel come to life. The food was also amazing. Everyone was served at once and all the food was warm on delivery. It was one of the best filets I have ever had. Our day went smooth and we didn't have one hick up. Definitely check out this venue and I promise you will fall in love!

h Nicole Peters and Jesus was a pleasure and they made it so easy and fun to plan our wedding. The staff working the reception was attentive and worked efficiently, the food was the perfect temperature when it came out and the drinks were always topped off. I'd defiintely recommend the Pierpont to anyone who wants a beautiful California wedding!

want to have an event... We know where to go. Pierpont Inn!

l this new management is doing a great job at restoring and improving the place. Many of the rooms have been renovated, and the rest will be soon too. So some of the rooms still seem a bit outdated, but shouldn’t be for long. All our guests mentioned that the beds were very comfortable, even in the rooms that haven’t been redone yet (memory foam we think), and there was a pretty extensive and good hot breakfast included every morning at no additional charge. The location is fabulous, right on the beach. If you’re thinking of staying here, you should also know it’s right next to the 101 freeway, but honestly when I was around visiting guests in various rooms, I couldn’t hear the noise from most of them. We would also like to compliment Severine (a manager I believe) because of how helpful she was with our group. We actually reserved the block of rooms with the interim management, who made a mistake. The Pierpont normally doesn’t allow reserving blocks except for events on the grounds (our wedding was off-site). But when we called to confirm the block with the new management, Severine was able to honor our reservation even though they technically didn’t have to. She continued to be a great help to us in answering all my emails very promptly, and then passing out our welcome packets to our guests as they checked in. The Pierpont is a beautiful old Craftsman building with a lot of character and charm. Ask for a quiet, renovated room, and you won’t be disappointed!

or our guests while they mingled. And the reception hall was perfect. Hardwood floors, lovely lighting, updated chairs and linens. Our guests could not stop commenting how delicious the food was. Get this- as part of the package they provide, a sit down dinner is served with BOTH chicken and filet mignon! I encourage every bride to check this place out. The value is amazing for all the things you get in the package. It includes 2-3 night stay for bride and groom and entire wedding party. We are so pleased with our wedding at this location. There were some "hiccoughs" surrounding the ceremony (almost a missing microphone and the train that comes by at 5:20 on the dot!) but these can be avoided if you can be punctual (which we were not) and if you arrange certain things with your DJ. Overall, a great time, a beautiful wedding venue, and GREAT value. Highly recommended.
