Today we visited The Gardens at Peacock Farms out in Arroyo Grande. This venue boasts having a wedding and reception under the canopy of trees in a lush garden setting. The trees and flowers are seasonal so they have a wedding season from late May until October (as you can tell in the pictures the garden isn't in bloom yet). Jessica was nice and was really "with it" in terms of what people want at their weddings. The venue is well organized and thought out. She also does all the flowers for the weddings unless the bride and groom decide to create their own centerpieces, etc. The whole venue is pretty full-service and includes everything except catering, music and fancy extras in their price lineup. So far, this venue seems to require the least amount of extra "work" or purchases by the bride, groom and their families. You are also allowed to bring in all your own alcohol (beer, wine champagne only) and they do not charge a corkage fee for anything. The only requirement is that a liscensed person serve the alcohol which Jessica said can be acquired through the catering service for around $125. Catering services must also have a permit and cannot just be Uncle Joe cooking burgers in the back. The only (maybe) bad thing about the venue is due to county ordinances, all guests must be off the premises by 10pm from June - September and 9 pm in the other months of the season. It is also pretty far from any hotels which requires the need for a good amount of designated drivers.
