We worked with Emily, Theresa, and Kelly, and the team is very communicative during the planning process leading up to the wedding. Very easy to customize exactly what we wanted for our wedding. Kelly was our on-site coordinator on the day of the wedding and really went above and beyond with being attentive throughout the entire event and ensuring everything went smoothly. Also highly recommend DJ Brian - he has such a natural personality fit for this and was so professional!

*Review based on my impression from the venue tour*…read more First thought : wow, this surrounding view is nice. The drive to get to the venue after passing the gate reminded me of the other wedgewood wedding property I went to earlier in the year - nice houses, golf course, greenery. I can't follow directions and in an attempt to follow the instruction from the email, we went through the wrong entrance (aka side door), so for a few min it felt like we were playing escape room to find the phone that we were supposed to call. However, if you follow the instructions right, you should be able to see the fireplace right when you open the door. It's a nice grand entrance. The interior area is pretty nice, although it does look dated if you look closely. However, I feel like the layout didn't suit the vision of what we want for our wedding day. As for the ceremony area, I personally thought the indoor version looks/feels nicer than the outdoor version. The outdoor one would be easy access from the parking lot though. I loooved the bridal suite/getting ready area. The groom's suite was nice and spacious too, but has locker room vibe with hoops. The person (wedding expert) giving us the tour was very good at selling us the vision, giving detailed info, etc. As opposed to touring the venue first, eagle ridge gave us the run down and "sales/informational pitch" first. The sales pitch is v important for wedding venue shopping, so no negative connotation there. We ended up choosing a different venue: one main reason was the fact that we can't try the food first. We didn't feel comfortable locking in to an all inclusive venue that doesn't allow outside catering. The menu options look good enough, but how does it taste???? It would suck if we end up not liking the food during the tasting and having to settle for a "I guess this is fine because we have no other choice". We were ready to pay to be able to have the chance for trying out the food first. Unfortunately, that was not an option. The other reason was the fact that we don't have much getting ready time. If I remember correctly, you only get to go in the suites 1-2 hrs before start time. The club is only open to the members prior to that. Idk about other brides, but I personally would need a lot more than that if I'm doing makeup and hair there. The timing might be okay if you only plan on changing into your dress there.

From planning to execution, we appreciate how smooth everything was from beginning to end. The food, from cocktail hour to the dinner buffet, was delicious and we received so many compliments about it all night when we talked to each table. The service all around was amazing and our guests loved how friendly all staff were. Sales staff were very friendly and knowledgeable. We were appreciative of how responsive and flexible they were. Day-of coordinators were ELITE in executing our vision day-of and putting everything together so beautifully. Their coordination helped us relax and enjoy our day knowing that we had a strong team helping us out behind the scenes. We will forever be grateful for the experience we had at Carmel Fields!

Attended a wedding at this venue and enjoyed every moment of it. From the outside to the main…read morelobby, it was all gorgeous. However, the standout moment came after the wedding ended. We planned to head back to our hotel around 10pm, only to discover a flat tire on our car. We attempted to change it, but the hills/slope of the area made it difficult to keep the car lifted. Staff member Ash (and 2 other gentlemen, not sure if they worked there) literally saved the day. Ash helped us out by providing her jack and assisted with removal of the flat tire with the spare. She then ensured the wheel was safe to drive and informed us of both the nearest gas station for air and mechanic for a repair. I can't thank her enough for turning a terrible moment to an amazing memory.

Do not under any circumstance consider getting your door from Home Depot Salinas. I ordered custom…read moreFrench doors. The first delivery they sent the wrong doors so the doors had to be returned. The next order, the doors opened out instead of in (the way they were ordered) so these had to returned as well. Keep in mind that every return means the doors have to be reordered so now I'm weeks behind (including the contractor working at my house.). Long story short, multiple people from Home Depot started calling me, including the "supervisor" trying to pressure me to take the doors. They said "hey the door is the same it just opens in, you can still use it". Just the absolute worst experience and customer service.

Patty and Carol are the real deal. - If you are debating on getting a wedding planner then you most…read morelikely need one. I am so grateful that Patty was recommended to me, I have no idea what I would have done without her. If you have no experience planning a wedding, then Patty is a great option. She will go above and beyond. She helped me with EVERYTHING. We had so many phone calls about planning, venders, timelines, you name it. We got married at the Monterey Plaza Hotel and Spa, Patty got our marriage insurance (didn't know that was a thing) and every detail was done to my exact wishes; our rooms, a get-ready room, timeline. She helped me find and book my venders; makeup, hair, live music. She knew about the area restrictions and completely managed all my venders. She made the best timelines I have ever seen in my life, had everything to a tee with wiggle room in case things did not go according to plan (which they rarely do). She even helped my officiant (who was our best friend) with his ceremony timeline and speech. Patty took care of everything, even when I had vender drama, she took care of it without me having to deal with it at all. And she even ran to our room when our ring bearer forget our rings! Day of, Patty has her assistant Carol which is more than a bonus. Both Patty and Carol are adored by me and my family. Truly were like my own family, even helped me put my shoes on. There are no perfect words to describe how truly grateful I am for having them at my wedding. Best decision I have ever made. 10/10 would hire them again.

Weddings are an expression of the love and personality of the B&G. Patty works with couples to create events that are uniquely their own. Strategizing, organizing, and working on every last detail. Then she connects her clients with the perfect vendors to make sure their vision comes true. When it counts most (wedding day) with her charming personality yet decisive personality, she executes weddings that flow with grace. As a photographer I have follow up conversations with the B&G after their wedding. The always give Patty the highest praise. Patty makes it happen! Todd Rafalovich
