Reviews

of our Hilltop Hacienda Weddings

““They responded promptly and warmly to every email, line-by-line, answering all my questions for months! They were so supportive and patient, and they seemed as invested as I was in having a wonderful wedding day and making everyone happy and comfortable. I am forever grateful to them and to Kennolyn for such a magical day!"

“Between booking and the wedding, we enjoyed several fun events like the wedding overview day and the details meeting. The overview day was a blast--meeting vendors, sampling the food we'd enjoy on our wedding day, and exploring all the beautiful spaces Kennolyn has to offer. The bridal area was lovely for getting ready, the groomsmen had a fantastic time in the groom's suite, and the ceremony and reception spaces were perfect.”

“After a couple months of frustration, we ended up stumbling upon Kennolyn Hilltop Hacienda and when we saw it for the first time, it honestly took our breath away. Covered in hacienda tile and overlooking the ocean, it felt just like our favorite place. A little Santa Barbara replica in the Santa Cruz mountains, perfection!"

"We had our wedding at Kennolyn Hilltop Hacienda this summer and we were completely thrilled with the experience from start to finish. The staff was so responsive - our coordinator Elyse even answered our email on a holiday. It was the most beautiful day we could have possibly imagined.”

"We got married at the Hilltop Hacienda & it was a lovely venue! I did not hire an outside planner, & in the year leading up to the wedding Elyse & team were so helpful answering all of my questions. Thank you for a magical day!”

“The value includes an secure site surrounded by unparalleled and endless beauty, a hacienda, a courtyard, a terrace, an expansive lawn area, a redwood grove, the Casa and Casita, an event coordinator who is as good (if not better) than a topnotch wedding planner - along with her equally incredible supervisor and colleague, a "Sound in Motion" DJ (excellent), fantastic food and wine, sweetheart table and lovers' seat, guest tables, linens, chairs, china, etc. , heaters, fireplace, fountains, sun canopies, guest parasols, bistro lighting, multiple arbors, dessert serving dishes! Most of all, what you will receive is a Kennolyn Team who is as committed as you are to making your Wedding Day a Dream Come True!”
