Truly the most beautiful venue

There was no component of our wedding weekend more complimented than the venue itself. People could not stop remarking about the beauty of Switzer Farm and how lucky they felt to have had the opportunity to visit. Many have said they'd like to get married there next! Gary and Dolores were a joy to work with and we appreciated the extra effort they both took to familiarize us and our vendors with the property.

We felt extra, extra grateful to have had the opportunity to stay onsite for our wedding and enjoyed the beautiful accommodations, kitchen, and access to our wedding! The extra special opportunity to spend more time with our families at Switzer will be cherished forever.

Best Weekend Ever

I’m at a loss for words when it comes to describing what a magical place Switzer Farm is. From the moment I saw pictures, I knew I had to visit, and when I did, I knew from the first few moments that this was where I wanted to spend my wedding weekend (heck I’d spend the rest of my life here if I was allowed!). Gary and his team at Switzer Farm are incredibly professional but also kind and work extremely hard to make sure that you have everything you need to make your stay the best ever. The house itself is meticulously restored, but at the same time, it feels cozy and lived in, not like a museum. It’s the way that the house and the outdoor space work together to create the most peaceful but vibrant energy. The Mendocino coast and the town of Westport California are incredibly picturesque, but somehow Gary and his team have created a landscape at Switzer that is truly breathtaking and inviting. Every single guest couldn’t stop talking about how beautiful it was, and all of us didn’t want to leave. We hope we can visit again, but we will never forget our incredibly magical weekend at Switzer Farm, and can’t recommend it enough to those looking for a beautiful space to stay and celebrate at.

Stunning Wedding Venue with Exceptional Service

We recently had the pleasure of hosting our wedding at this beautiful venue in August, and we can’t recommend it highly enough! Nestled in a charming small town, the property features a lovely Victorian home filled with vintage details that added a unique touch to our stay.

The venue itself is absolutely breathtaking. We held our ceremony on the headlands, surrounded by stunning ocean views, followed by a delightful cocktail hour on the veranda and in the back garden. For the reception, we utilized the expansive lawn, which provided the perfect setting for our celebration. The variety of areas allowed us to change the ambiance throughout the day, creating a truly magical experience.

A special mention to Gary, the owner, who was fantastic to work with. His clear communication made the booking and planning process seamless. Dolores, the property manager, did an amazing job preparing the house for us and checking in as needed, ensuring everything went smoothly.

We also want to thank Phoebe and Jason, who helped with security, parking, and assisting during our welcome party and the wedding. Their kindness and professionalism contributed significantly to our overall experience.

This venue including the home is a gem, and the entire team made our wedding day & weekend unforgettable. We will cherish the memories made here forever. If you’re looking for a special place for your big day, look no further!
