Or even if you’re not like most girls maybe you’ve simply always pictured a wedding outdoors. Either way we’ve got you covered. Here is a list of some of favorite wedding venues here in our beautiful neck of the woods in Northern California.

One new popular addition to many outdoor wedding decors is the nostalgic tipi. Some couples rent just one and use it as the preparation area for the bride and her party when the wedding is in a remote outdoor location while others are choosing to house the bar and lounge inside the tipi lending a historic ambiance to the celebration.”
Come Say “I Do” At Chalet View Lodge – Portola. “Imagine your wedding day surrounded by your closest family and friends, magnificent gardens and a backdrop of blue mountain skies, serene foresttrails and flowing creeks, creating memories that will last a lifetime.
