Picture your wedding ceremony and reception among 1,000 acres of rolling hills lined with vineyards, manicured lawns, ancient oaks, rose gardens, ribbons of white fences and horses grazing in the background. Celebrities like Kelsey Grammar, Lisa Kudrow, Don Henley and many more hosted their dream weddings at Saddlerock Ranch, and so could you!

Extend your trip beyond the ceremony and relax afterwards with your closest friends and family. Treat yourself to retail therapy after a busy weekend at the upscale Malibu Country Mart.

Top it all off with some wine tasting. Malibu Rocky Oaks Estate Vineyards can take you on a picturesque offshore tour on a yacht, and pair it with some of the best wines. Or you can spend a day outside and learn more about winemaking at Hidden Malibu Wine Country Tours.

Cozy

Rancho del Cielo

For spectacular ocean views and a serene atmosphere check out Rancho Del Cielo. This tranquil Malibu cottage with the Santa Monica Mountains at its back also features olive groves, outdoor fireplaces for cozy gatherings, and makes a perfect venue for a quintessential old-California style wedding.

Rancho Del Cielo wedding venue happens to share its name with President Reagan’s private ranch. To make this connection truly real, visit the renowned Ronald Reagan Presidential Library and Museum while you’re in Conejo Valley. The museum is the most-visited presidential library in the country and is a fascinating way to experience a touch of American history.

Historic

Calamigos Ranch

Quietly nestled in the Malibu wine country, Calamigos Ranch is the only destination ranch for weddings both whimsical (for as little as two) and elegant (up to 2,000 guests). Explore more than 250 acres of Calamigos Ranch, surrounded by oak groves, waterfalls, natural ponds and even a Ferris wheel available for your celebration!

After you’ve said your “I Do’s,” go sightseeing together. Admire 7,000 years of art at The Getty Villa, which was modeled after an ancient Roman country house, and enjoy the moment in its luxurious garden. Head to Geoffrey’s Malibu after for an unforgettable oceanside dining experience.
