Monty & Alice helped make everything seamless and care free from start to finish. They are fantastic to work with! We love them ❤️
The girls spent all day in the lovely brides quarters upstairs with hair, makeup and mimosas. 🍹 The guys were outside playing corn hole enjoying the views of the ranch.
The catering kitchen was utilized before the caterer service arrived to prepare charcuterie boards, slice lemons & limes, etc.
That night we had fires in all three fireplaces, plus a “s’mores love” station at one ♥️ 🔥 Certain attendees never left the fun inside bar while others enjoyed dancing under the stars to the band and some held a festive late night karaoke competition inside near the coffee bar. There is so much room to accommodate a diverse crowd at El Cerrito Lodge.
You can enjoy the fabulous ranch while having a more formal event if you so choose. Ours was a jeans & boots event as Tana & Peter had a private church wedding prior and the large reception the following weekend. It truly was a storybook event for us, I can’t imagine celebrating anywhere else ♥️❤️♥️ read less - 2 years ago

Talked to the owners and they were super accommodating to our needs and request. Fast forward to our setup, the day of the live stream. Myself and the film crew walked in to this amazing venue and we were blown away by the setup of this place. I will recommend El Cerrito Lodge to anyone and everyone needing a venue. Great owners and a great location. Thank you from the Jimmy Kerley Band. read less - 3 years ago
