We truly loved this venue. They have it all (for the most part): views, photo opps, in-house catering, vendor recommendations and the sweetest DAY OF coordinator Sarah (everyone loved her!). I wish I could say the same for the venue manager Jackie, which is why I gave it 4 stars unfortunately. I was often left wondering if she was upset at me for some reason. Maybe not all the time but she can definitely come off a little cold and disinterested. In all honesty, I was relieved when Sarah was there on the day of and not her. Btw, the bad reviews on here are not wrong and you can see by her responses that she is lacking in customer service and overall professionalism. I must add that communication with the Kellogg west hotel (which is where my guests were to stay) was non existent. Do yourself a favor and book room blocks elsewhere. Anyway, the house itself is beautiful! read more

The goods...they have good food and its very nice... read more

My best friend had her wedding at this venue this weekend and this venue has the most disorganized and unprofessional service that I have ever experienced. Sarah was the wedding coordinator for the wedding day and she arrived 30min before the start of the ceremony and did not send the shuttles to pick up the guests from the parking lot below so people were waiting in the hot sun for a long time. Once people arrived there were no directions given to the guests to take there seats so people proceed to wait in the hot sun longer. Once people begin finding their seats it was reported by guests that the coordinator was yelling orders at people. She also disrespected the mother of the groom and several members of the wedding party numerous times though the day while we were trying to keep things on schedule because things were so far behind. Every time we attempted to find the coordinator the other staff told us she was unavailable to speak to us so we had no idea what was happening the entire night. The staff was rude and would roll their eyes at us when we would ask questions about what was happening. Refreshment stations were not refilled for guests throughout the night and at the end of the night the leftover cake was thrown in a box and ruined. This venue is beautiful but NOT worth the money you will pay to have to basically run the wedding yourself. read more

My wife and I got married at the Kellogg House, and it was excellent overall everyone did a great job putting up the ceremony as well as the reception, the one thing I'll mention is that this place is the place to create priceless memories that will last for ever. Definitely going to have my 10 year anniversary with my wife at the Kellogg House count on it .. read more

Let me start by saying I did not end up booking this venue for my wedding but I wanted to write about my experience with Jacqueline and view of the venue. Jacqueline is an amazing woman. She is organized and very honest and helpful. The inside of the Kellogg house was amazing! So gorgeous! The front of the property is also very pretty. I like the giant trees, and the fountain. The garden ceremony site out back is where is fell flat for me. Pictures make this place look nicer than actually being there. I disliked the turf. I realize it will be green all year round and that it's "heel friendly" but I just didn't like it. The deal breaker though was the freeway RIGHT BEHIND THE CEREMONY site. You guests can just stare at the cars as the ZOOM past. Plus the NOISE! Hope you have a mircophone for your vows cause your guests may not here you say I DO! This was the biggest downfall for me. I could probably looked past the turf for the price (It is extremely reasonable in price) but not the freeway or the noise. read more

Beautiful place for a wedding the staff is amazing! I really enjoyed being a bridesmaid lol what did suck what is the fact that all mixed drinks were not included in the open bar but its okay lol read more

My husband and I just had our wedding at the Kellogg House on 9/30 and it was a beautiful event. The historic house, the backyard, the trees, the courtyard and fountain made the ambiance of the venue timeless and old Hollywood casual glam. Jacqueline and the staff made the event so smooth that we had zero stress throughout the night. Our plates were always full, our glasses always filled and there was always someone around to make sure our needs were met. The bartenders were great and kept the drinks flowing, the DJ kept the dance floor hopping and our guests (young and old) had an amazing time. What's cool is that people had the option of enjoying the house and sit inside and talk while the louder and rowdier crowd danced outside. The place lit up with bistro lights was absolutely beautiful. If booking, go with their preferred vendors because they really know what they're doing - Alex the DJ, Beverly's Best Bakery, Xavier Florist and our day-of Coordinator Winnie Phung weddings. Also, look into having your cocktail hour in the courtyard. It's costs a bit more to rent furniture and tables but well worth it because it breaks up the wedding space and allows you privacy to take photos inside the house. Make sure you get the shuttle back to the hotel at the end of the night. It was super helpful to get our guests back home and to their rooms. We could not have found a better, more effortlessly classy venue for our wedding. Some minor cons: - The Venue is hard to find and the address is not on google maps. It's essential to email guests with maps and directions beforehand -It was hard for some of the tables on back of the second tier to see the sweetheart table and speech area. Make sure you put younger, more rowdy guests there that do not mind sitting in the back but like to be close to the bar. -There's limited parking at the house so be sure to get the shuttle. read more

Can't enough about the Kellogg House. Not only is it a beautiful venue but the food is amazing and Jaqueline and her staff are first rate An email never went unanswered and her and her knowledge of how to run n event is spot on. Thanks to all of the staff for a beautiful and stress free wedding read more

The Kellogg House is truly a hidden gem amongst Southern California wedding venues. The venue is beautiful and a perfect fit for those seeking a vintage vibe. My wife and I were recently married at this location (ceremony only) and were very pleased with our experience. Kellogg House offers the most value of just about any similar venue in Southern California. We toured countless other venues only to be turned away by absurd pricing, so finding the Kellogg was a breath of fresh air. Our coordinator Jacqueline was beyond helpful. One thing in particular was her responsiveness. During our initial hunt for a venue we encountered many different coordinators that would take weeks to respond to the simplest of emails. Jacqueline was very accommodating regardless of how many times I asked her the same questions and was always prepared for every meeting. We never felt like we were lost in the shuffle with any of her other clients. The only slight con about the venue is: location. Finding the venue can be a little tricky. Personally I had no issue but for some reason several of our guests, despite our best efforts, had trouble finding the venue. We even had a webpage with a map and directions (waze app), we even put up directional arrows on the roads leading to the venue. Perhaps this says more about our guests than the venue but still something to consider. Other than that I would highly recommend Kellogg House to anyone looking for a wedding venue. read more

This place is a hidden gem! I was a Cal Poly student many moons ago, but I never had a chance to visit the Kellogg House while I was there. When my fiance and I were looking for a venue, we actually Googled "local outdoor venues." We weren't looking for a big place since we planned on having less than 200 guests. Most places around us were a bit pricey so it was a nice surprise to find how reasonable Kellogg House was. We met with Jacqueline, the coordinator, and she was great. I loved how easy it was communicate with her and how organized she was. She kept us on task from beginning to end. On our wedding day, everything ran smoothly. I didn't have a wedding planner, so I pretty much did everything myself up until this point. Having Jacqueline there was a blessing. She was very accommodating and made sure we were on task. She was constantly checking on me to make sure everything was ok and I really appreciated that. She even gave a tour of the house to our guests. The food was great, we had a buffet, so our guests had choices on what they wanted to eat. The staff was great, they were polite and picked up our plates. There was only one bartender, but Jacqueline stepped in as backup when it got busy. Our guests were constantly commenting on how beautiful the place was with. Everyone had a great time and there were no complaints. All in all, this venue was perfect for our outdoor wedding. read more

I would NEVER recommend Kellogg House for an event. I had several communications with a Kellogg representative named Kristen about wanting to host a Celebration of Life reception there. I told Kristen the date and time that I wanted to reserve for the reception, and she told me that there was no problem with that date. I also sent several emails to Kristen which also confirmed the date for the reception. I later drove from Los Angeles to Kellogg House to meet with Kristen in person to tour the premises and I again confirmed the date of the reception. Kristen told me to contact her the next day to finalize details. The following day I spoke with a different Kellogg representative named Jacqueline who informed me that the day I wanted to reserve would not work because Kellogg House was going to be closed on that day. This is after Kristen had previously confirmed to me that the date I wanted for the reception was available and, based on that representation, I had included in the obituary notice that the reception would be held at Kellogg House on that date. Jacqueline promised that she would have Kristen call me in a couple of days after she was back from her days off to discuss the situation. Of course, Kristen never called me. What kind of management is that? Shame on both of you. I ended up having to find a last minute alternative for the reception. Fortunately, I was able to make a last minute reservation at Mountain Meadows Golf Course for the reception. Everything about my experience with Mountain Meadows far surpassed my horrible experience with Kellogg House. read more

I had my wedding here in October of 2016. I never knew what this place was, I would always see it off the freeway while driving. I was so amazed with Jackie, she was absolutely fabulous with everything!! I couldn't have asked a better wedding coordinator. And the food was delicious, I had many compliments on the food. The extras that were included like a stay in the hotel's suite the night of your wedding and other things were great and helpful. The natural garden theme was amazing and the the actual house seemed frozen in time with it's replication of the original decor. The freeway being close was not a issue for me at all, the noise level of the freeway is non-existent during an evening/night event. The only issue I had was the tiered seating arrangements. Those sitting at the bottom felt a little disconnected from the wedding but if I had had it in the budget I would have rearranged to put the dance floor on the bottom or a lounge area to have the guests feel more comfortable and accomadated. But overall if you are interested in this venue I definitely recommend it! Thank you Jackie! read more

Finding an affordable and show stopping venue is not easy, but The Kellogg House is that and more! I came across The Kellogg House on wedding wire last year during my venue search. I immediately fell in love when I visited last December. The Kellogg House has an outstanding list of preferred vendors which we used for our wedding (Planner: Rebecca Calagna Events, Beverly's Best Bakery, DJ and lighting: PrimeTime Music). Through the entire planning process, Jacqueline the venue coordinator, was amazing to work with. She was always accessible, professional, and always communicated with us to inform us of deadlines. I was very much a DIY bride, creating my own centerpieces, photo booth wall, sweetheart table decor, and favors. The Kellogg House was so accommodating of my vision and on the day of, executed beyond my wedding day dreams! Our guests could not stop raving about how beautiful everything was, how delicious the food tasted, and how great our DJ was as well! If I could live out my wedding day again I would do it in a heartbeat! Thank you to The Kellogg House for making our wedding the absolute BEST DAY EVER!! read more

Beautiful venue! I attended an evening wedding here this Saturday and was impressed by the lush scenery, the service, and surprisingly the food. I'm not sure if the food was handled by the Kellogg House. I would recommend the Kellogg House to friends seeking a venue for an outdoor wedding. read more

This is an absolutely beautiful venue! It was picture perfect for our wedding and the staff makes it all the better. From the beginning, Jacqueline was beyond helpful and patient with all of my continuous questions. Come the big day, everything was beautiful and organized, flowing smoothly from event to event via Jacquie's guidance. Food was amazing, and all of my guests loved it! Wouldn't change a thing about this place. read more

I have NOTHING but wonderful things to say about this venue and the people who work there. I had my wedding this summer (July 4, 2013) and worked with Cori and Jacqueline and they were responsive, flexible, accommodating and helped me and my mom put on a MAGICAL evening for 150 guests. There were no hiccups, the food was GREAT, they coordinated and worked well with all of my vendors and were timely and responsive in the six months of planning that led up to the event. The venue was absolutely BEAUTIFUL--every guest I've talked to since the event has said "that VENUE!" My aunts, who helped set up and plan the wedding, noticed that throughout the night, my planner, Jacqueline was ON IT for any needs we might've had. I didn't have to get up to get my food because I was busy talking with guests and having pictures taken and one of the waitstaff brought my husband and I our food--I was impressed by that. I was overall just very impressed with the caliber of service, the quality of the food, the beauty of the venue itself and if I had it to do all over again, I'd go with the Kellogg House every time :) I HIGHLY recommend this venue to anyone looking for a reasonably priced, beautiful venue with an incredibly accommodating and helpful staff. read more

I booked this venue for my wedding 7/7/12. Similar to other posts, I attended Cal Poly for undergrad and had no idea this place even existed. Needless to say, the venue was BEAUTIFUL and perfect in every way. Many thanks to Charlotte (the wedding coordinator on-site provided by Kellogg House) who helped with the planning. Negative parts: The first coordinator team I had (Chelsea and Jay provided by the venue) was extremely slow to respond to my email requests and voicemails, which was causing frustration on my part. However, I learned later they either quit (or were fired), so my replacement coordinator (Charlotte) was AWESOME and I was lucky to have her. Another negative was that the morning of the wedding when we arrived to set up, it seemed the guys setting up the tables had absolutely no idea what the planned layout was (but luckily, i didn't know about this until after b/c my friends/family tried keeping me clueless about any mishaps so as not to spoil my day). All was fine though b/c my mom had a spare layout of the tables so she just gave it to them for reference. Best parts: the beautiful setting with views of the landscape and luscious trees, the amazing food, and the helpful staff. Although more expensive than my original budget allowed, it was still worth every penny. Charlotte was quick to solve any problems that came up, like when I had reserved the gazebo with the previous coordinator, but found out the evening of the rehearsal that it wasn't included; so Charlotte took care of it right away, thankfully. She also let us know when our hosted bar during the wedding (with money that we put down) had reached its limit, allowing us the option to extend it or not. They were also patient with my multiple payments for the venue in pieces, paying some here and some there at a time. Honestly, I can't say enough good things about the work that Charlotte and Laurie did to help out. It was a PERFECT wedding day, with guests constantly commenting on how beautiful everything turned out. Thank you to the Kellogg House Pomona team, I would definitely recommend this wedding venue to others. read more

The Kellogg House is an amazing Venue. When my husband and I took a tour, we instantly fell in love. We booked it right away for our wedding on Oct 7, 2016. We were on a tight budget and the Kellogg house offered us an amazing deal. Jacqueline, the events coordinator at the Kellogg House was a pleasure to work with. We had our own wedding coordinator and they both worked on our timeline. Jacqueline is very good with communicating with you when things are due, she gave us great vendor recommendations and always kept us informed about what we should be doing next in our planning process. The venue is not only beautiful, the food that they catered for us was delicious. My husband and I are still receiving comments from our guest about how delicious it was and how beautiful the location was. The house is near a freeway, but even so, we could not hear the traffic at all. We got married on a Friday at 5pm (total traffic hour) but again we did not hear any of it. So don't let that turn you away. read more

I got married at the Kellogg House in 2013. I also has graduated from Cal Poly and it was very special that I got to have my wedding at the Kellogg house. It was more than I could ever imagine. Everything was perfect and the wedding coordinator, Jacqueline Marshall did an amazing job. She was extremely professional and made sure everything was in order. The wedding day went so smooth and I had nothing to worry about. All of my guests had such a fabulous time. We all danced the night away and many of my guests said it was the best wedding they had been to! The food was delicious! I honestly wouldn't change one thing about the venue. read more

If you are looking for a unique and classy venue for your wedding, this is it! We were married in September 2014. The entire grounds are fabulous. With a large family, we have had many events and we all know the food makes or breaks the event. All my guests were raving about how delicious our entrées were the attentiveness of the wait staff was outstanding. This venue is a true, gem! We have lived in the San Gabriel Valley for over 40 years and never knew this place existed. If you want a spectacular spot to have your wedding, it's worth taking the time to visit the Kellogg House. read more
