Daniel and Pamela's Wedding in Corona, California

The story of our wedding

We were married at the Retreat by Wedgewood Weddings in Corona California. This converted country club (for weddings only) has a Tuscan vibe with old-world-style leather chairs, fireplaces, and structured ceilings with wooden beams. The outdoor terrace where we had our reception has ceramic tile floors and an atop of the world view, overlooking Temescal Valley, equipped with market lights for that romantic outdoor scene.

My adult children and all of my grandkids (6) participated in the wedding it was just darling. Our wedding style is romantic/classic. The flower girls had full-length pageant dresses. Bridesmaids and groomsmen were semi-formal.

I was originally going to have something small in our backyard, but we couldn't downsize our guest list. I found this venue only 3 miles from our home and fell in love. All of our guests were in awe.

We had all of our favorite people in the world there to celebrate with us, including most of our neighbors, friends, and relatives including the children. One tip that worked out so well is a kids' activity table. We included stickers, coloring books, small party toys, etc. I don't think I saw the kids all night. I had parents generously thanking me.
