Wildwood Acres Resort

Attended a beautiful wedding. Location is romantic but fun at the same time. There is enough space to have the actual ceremony and reception, with game area, space for a photo booth and dance area.

This is the most perfect venue in every single way ! Dan and Lien are absolutely amazing and their vendors are just as amazing. The vendors and Dan/Lien make the perfect team! We had our wedding last Friday (10/11) and was perfect! All of our guest raved about how perfect our wedding was. That was because of Dan, lien and their vendors. Always open communication if you need anything. I'm so pleased with the outcome of the wedding and we will be coming back to visit Dan and Lien.

The road to Wildwood Acres may be winding and somewhat confusing, but don't hesitate. Just get there and then you'll know what a great place it is.I had the pleasure of photographing a wedding for a some friends of mine. I attended the couples open house with them to view the venue and talk about their ideas and also how the ceremony was supposed to go. I met the operations manager, who is great and really knows his stuff about weddings. We got to sample their menu, always a plus. This is really great for me because we went at the same time that the wedding was to be held and I was able to calculate how the lighting would look at certain points of the day.The day of the event was busy as weddings tend to be when you're behind the scenes. For being a kind of small location they have it all laid out to flow really well. There is a large room for either events or in this case for the wedding party to get prepared. The ceremony is held up in the back in a round wooded staging area. Its a little tight for photographers but the guests seemed to be happy.The dinning reception area is in the middle and right next to the dance floor with a DJ. These areas are bigger and better for mingling. The seating arrangement is very pretty with those warm old fashioned string lights floating above everyone.At one point, during dusk, the garden area was swarmed with dragon flies. It was one of the most magical things I've seen. The garden area is another spot for photos and guests to mingle and enjoy themselves.If you're in the market for a wedding come check this place out. Its ideally suited for your needs.

This space was perfect for my sister's spring evening reception. Pros: the different twinkle lights and lush vegetation made the space so romantic, intimate, and whimsical. The different levels were perfect for my sister's diverse activities like a photo booth, activities, standing tables, and different seating levels. The serving staff was so friendly and fun and definitely helped the atmosphere. The food, especially the late night grilled cheeses, were good as well. Though it got a little brisk, there were heaters and an open bar to help us out. Cons: The only con I can think of was that the food was not out for very long I don't think, though that could be because of my sister's itinerary. The only other thing would of course be the location. It's a windy one lane road up to the venue, so definitely inaccessible for ubers or lyfts. The space was sweet, personal, and not stuffy ay all. It was a lovely evening because of how beautiful the venue was!

We had our wedding was here and it was perfect. The venue is stunning and Lien and Dan the owners are fantastic. We live in SoCal and had to do most of our planning via email, or send my mom as a representative. They were completely willing to work with us and our schedule. The catering is all handled by Lien, and you only pick it out a couple weeks ahead of the wedding. It was delicious. She worked with us to meet various dietary restrictions and we were so happy with how our menu turned out. It didn't feel "wedding-y" just a really good meal. And the late night sandwiches she makes were a big hit. There is nothing we would have changed about our experience.

I really wish I could have given more stars to my review of this venue since the venue is beautiful, it is just unfortunate that the staff is absolutely terrible and rude. I was one of the helpers setting up my friend's wedding last weekend and had a really bad experience. And when I say really bad, I mean really bad. The day of coordinator Mark had a complete freak out when we were setting up a table and it was slightly touching a small part of one of the plants. He picked up our table and slammed it down to the ground and screamed at us and was in our face. It was one of the most unprofessional craziest experiences I have had with staff from a venue. I then saw his boss, Lien and tried to calmly talk to her about the situation and then she began screaming at me saying "Anything that Mark does is CORRECT since he is my employee." This was just shocking to me. I have worked in the wedding industry for about 8 years now and I have never seen someone treat people like this. The sad thing is the venue has so much potential, but the staff just make it such a bad experience. Then the rest of the wedding we just see there whole staff talking crap about us. Sooooo unprofessional and uncomfortable. They really need to figure out how to treat their guest better, especially if they are going to charge an arm and a leg for every little detail.Thank you to Todd, one of the the bartenders for showing compassion and being super nice to us.

This place is incredibly misleading, and i would argue deceitful. They provide a price sheet with costs for events such as weddings, listed at $2500 - $5000, but then require bottle service (even for non alcoholic), and only allow outside catering for Indian food. When asked why we were obligated to pay for bottle service for a non alcoholic wedding, they said that the true minimum of a weekend event is $20,000, over 4× what was actually listed. The individual I spoke with was dismissive and rude, and when asked about any of these specific rules, resorted back to "we do this because we are a private business and can make any rules we'd like". Rude, deceitful, overpriced, and simply silly standards.

When we initially toured this venue, it checked of all of our boxes for what we were looking for in a venue. We really appreciated the layout and how it wasn't the typical ballroom ceremony/ reception environment. It was more of a whimsical outdoor garden vibe, which we loved! There were different areas in the venue where guests can hang out and explore and it wasn't strictly just the dance floor. The only challenges we had with Wildwood were some of the communication with Lien (owner). Some things were unclear at times and it was very difficult to get outside vendors approved. Her preferred DJ abruptly quit on us a month before our wedding and she was really pushing on having us book her other preferred DJ, who we were not very interested after talking to him. We understand the precaution of wanting professional vendors on site, but the process of even getting professional outside vendors wasn't very smooth.However, Dan and Lien (owners) did rise to the occasion when our wedding coordinator failed to show up at our rehearsal. Dan confidently and clearly led the rehearsal and he was so kind and patient to us and our wedding party, especially when we were feeling pretty stressed with the wedding coordinator not showing up. The wedding coordinator was supposed to collect our items (favors, programs, etc) to set up for the next day, and Dan and Lien were very kind and let us store them in the clubhouse that night, which is typically is not allowed, so we appreciated them accommodating us with that! Their staff on the day of was also amazing! They all looked pretty young, but they were so professional and kind. Our guests also loved the dog!

I am a professional wedding photographer. I work at a LOT of venues. Wildwood is my very favorite. I have shot over 40 weddings (and counting) here at Wildwood. Dan and Lien are incredibly helpful and kind. They will go to bat for you. The ambiance is beautiful. Very unique. I highly recommend it for weddings!

Wildwood Acres was not only a spectacular venue to have our reception (6/25/22) but their staff was great as well.  Lien and Dan (and Ducky the Dog), were easy to work with, competent, and hard working.  Lien's food was excellent, we recommend the Tri-Tip and Salmon, but the roasted vegetables were great too.  We also used the vendors they provided:  Le Gateau Bakery for our cake (taster platter was delicious), A Love's in Bloom Florist (beautiful flowers), DJ Mark Welch (great guy), and Cream (for ice cream sandwiches which were a BIG hit).  Put your faith in the staff, especially Lien's cooking and a great time is to be had by all.
