The Respite is a private estate situated on 2 lush acres within walking distance of the polo fields in Indio, California, offering distinct and separated wedding ceremony, cocktail reception and dinner party reception areas with beautiful landscaping and 360 degree mountain views to make for a perfect wedding venue. The Respite offers full-service luxury floral and event design and production. We accept only a limited number of weddings and events throughout the year so that we can service our guests as they deserve.

Facilities and Capacity

The Resoite features a newly constructed Guest House with a 1,000 sf great room, 24 ft high cathedral ceilings and a fully-equipped gourmet kitchen. The Guesthouse is adjacent to a 10,000 sf grass lawn, which features a large section of Tuscan pavers under mature shade trees and market lights to accommodate large open air events. The estate grounds also include a large saltwater spa and pool with a waterfall grotto and swim-up bar, complete with misters and fog features at the pool and the poolside cabana with wood burning fireplace. The pool area is surrounded by 8,000 sf of Tuscan pavers outfitted with a lounge and fire feature and an outdoor kitchen with a 2-burner cook top and both gas grill and separate Kamado style charcoal grill and smoker. The Respite can accomodate events for 500+ guests.

Services Offered

The Respite team includes well-established event planners, caterers, bartenders and floral designers to ensure the perfect event. The Respite is a luxury wedding and event venue, not a hotel or restaurant, so we custom tailor each event to meet your budget instead of offering generic packages. A decent wedding should budget around $100 per guest just for food and bar. The best way to save money is to limit your guest count.
