Luxury Wedding Venues of California: Filoli of the Bay Area

It’s no secret that much like the islands of Hawaii, the Bay Area of California is also home to an array of elegant, luxurious, and stunning venues. One such wedding venue I recently had the pleasure of documenting for a styled shoot is the enchanting Filoli Estate. Come with me and experience this timeless space tucked within 650 acres of natural beauty.

Filoli: A Breathtaking Wedding Venue in California’s Bay Area

Initially built over the course of 3 years in the early 1900s, the Filoli manor and garden both feature stunning, classic Georgian style architecture. The wonderful, historic setting of this estate exudes a sense of wonder and luxury that is beyond compare. This beauty, combined with serene views of the Santa Cruz Mountains set the scene for a wedding venue that is unlike any other in the Bay Area of California. 

Filoli’s Incredible Offerings and Packages

In addition to the estate’s wondrous beauty, Filoli goes the extra mile as a wedding venue to provide an experience of the highest quality for their couples. This is achieved through their 4 distinct packages, each of which offers a different experience to best fit every couples vision. Whether you’re interested in a full venue buyout, or a more selective experience amidst the venue’s Redwoods, Ballroom, or Garden Packages, Filoli gives you the freedom to celebrate the way you want to. These packages are suited both for large celebrations into the hundreds, or intimate gatherings of your 10 favorite people, as well as everything in-between.

Refined Luxury Bathed in Natural Beauty

California’s Bay Area features some of the state’s most remarkable landscapes, and as such is the perfect setting for a beautiful wedding venue like Filoli! The 650 acres that the Filoli Estate sits within feature 6 distinct ecosystems which is incredible in it’s own right. The garden itself, which is where the majority of the wedding venue is, consists of 16 acres of immense beauty. Immaculately groomed gardens, gorgeous views of the mountains in the distance, and an air of elegance all permeate throughout the space to provide an unforgettable setting for any wedding day!

Filoli truly is a wedding venue like none other. It’s an amazing space perfectly suited for luxury weddings in the heart of California’s Bay Area, and I’m eternally grateful to have experienced it alongside this talented group of vendors.
