We had our daughter wedding here last Wednesday Oct 2024.
I was highly disappointed as we walked on wet grass and sat on muddy chairs, my dress along with several others had mud on them, the next complaint I have is the food we paid for the Buffett and had to ask numerous times for to go plates I am shocked we were able to take our deserts home but nothing else. I’m wanting partial payment back for the food because there was a lot left over and I read that large venues like this is suppose to provide the to go plates. Well everytime someone asked for one it was an inconvenience, we paid for wine that was never was used but couldn’t take that home as well because no cap. So I don’t get it it’s ok to take our deserts home but the food no ? They rather you give away the food instead of it being thrown away is what I read on the California food law.
I didn’t pay for everyone else to eat off my dime. So if someone from this venue wants to reach out to me they can.
Other then those complaints the venue was nice but very expensive if your planning on having a wedding here.

Seqouia staff is the best there is. The amount of effort they put into my wedding was something else. They adjusted to so many plan changes and were so flexible. They took care of our vendors so we wouldn’t have to and they included so much more. Food was 10/10 and the bar was great. The staff will take care of you and the location is amazing for pictures.

It's unfortunate I have to write this review but this venue made one of the best days of my life into a memory I don't think fondly of.
First, the coordinator that we spent a year planning our wedding with was NOT the coordinator that worked our wedding and that ultimately ruined our wedding.
I spent so much money on an audio guestbook that was never set up, personalized coloring books that were not set out, meaningful decor that was not set up correctly. The coordinator was rude to me, my family and friends.
Our cake was never set up with the cake topper and florals, so it was just a plain white cake despite telling the coordinator about every plan (written instructions). The cake was DROPPED and ruined while transferring from cake stand to cake plate. And the venue never saved a piece of cake for us to take home like we asked so we lose out on that tradition.
There was so much that went wrong that day. The manager refunded us $1500 for the discrepancies. However, after spending $20-25K on a wedding that was ruined, $1500 is a slap in the face. This wasn't just a "oh, sorry we messed up", you ruined a day we look forward to our whole lives and a day we will be forced to look back on for the rest of our lives. $1500 does not fix the fact that our entire wedding was ruined and we regret going with this venue and now I have to grieve and process not being able to have a wedding that I enjoyed...I would not recommend this place.

If I could give more than 5 stars I would! Words cannot explain how much Amy, Willow and the rest of Sequoia Mansion team has made our dream wedding come true. My husband and I were living in a completely different state during our whole wedding planning process pretty much. They did everything in their power to make it as seamless and accommodating as possible. The tiniest of details were never overlooked and we are just so over the moon and thankful for this place. We hope that engaged couples seriously consider this venue. Worth every single penny! Thank you Sequoia Mansion!!

I had an experience the weekend of May4-5.I am the Wedgewood florist and have been for 12 years.A unprecedented storm came into our area with 6 weddings and over 100 guests each on the decent.The weddings at Wedgewood Sequoia were no stress at all,The weddings were readjusted from the outdoor brick patio to the indoor veranda sun porch.Two of the weddings at other venues ,were not so lucky.While tents were put up,I can assure you the tents make it worse.Becoming nothing but mud mess.At Sequoia this problem never occurs ever.Whenever we do come across a challenge such as a power outage etc.Sequoia Wedgewood already has it handled.We all work together as a team which is crucial to any wedding to have vendors who work together.While we design over two hundred weddings a year,I never worry that Wedgewood staff will not be prepared,Tables are set up on time with linens,It is clean,and ready to go.Not the case at many other venues.If I forget something,It happens,A text from Wedgewood management is immediate and the mistake is corrected before any unsettled nerves are aware.Choose Wedgewood.

Gorgeous venue. I can't state well enough how perfect this location is for a wedding. The staff were absolutely amazing. They didn't miss a single thing, they were never intrusive and they were always polite and friendly.
The staff that day, deserve all the good things in life. They deserve to be proud of how they handled themselves.

Everything was wonderful! We didn’t have to worry about much at all and our special day was so much fun! The food was amazing and every vendor was great. The DJ, desserts, officiant, florals, decor, and all staff were helpful keeping us on our timeline and coordinating everything. Thank you!

Wedgewood helped us create a beautiful wedding that surpassed our expectations! We planned the wedding from out of state, Wedgewood’s organization and responsive staff made it so easy! Amy, our coordinator, was always so responsive and helpful along with the other ladies in the office who would respond when Amy was out of the office. Head Chef, Danielle, out did herself! And DJ Steven was just so nice and easy going and executed every detail we asked for with our music! Our guests raved about the elegant venue, the excellent food, and how seamlessly we moved through the evening. Our experience all around was a 10/10!

About month ago, I'd emailed Carrie K, as a resolution was failing to be reached and was told I'd receive an email from Kali, the regional manager. A week later, this hadn't happened, I pointed it out to Carrie, and she told me to email her myself. I told her I wouldn't be doing that as it was another example of Wedgewood's unprofessionalism, only then did I magically get a response. Now, almost two months after our wedding Aaron, the owner of API Photography, has called my father (who paid for the photographer) asking if I would remove my review of their business (as if their "apology" of two thin photobooks and two photoshopped images makes up for the loss of over 30 photos of me going down the aisle and being handed off is enough). He also spoke with Jeremy, the manager, at Wedgewood, who tried to refer him back to Aaron...sending us in a circle of unaccountability. Long story short, we still paid almost $3K not to receive all of our photos. I emailed Kali, the regional manager, once more to let her know this detail, since it is seemingly acceptable to Wedgewood to not only make excuses for repeated issues on our wedding day, but continuing months later and practically asking us not to tell anyone about the poor experience they provided. After giving her all the details of everything that went wrong (because she claimed not to have them, despite having supposedly talked to her team about it) she decided to no longer respond.

Older area of Placerville built during gold rush. Wine tasting in basement. The upstairs is rented for weddings. Casual drop in 1 mile from downtown .

We had our dream wedding at this venue this past weekend! The staff went above and beyond to make it truly special, and we felt so supported throughout the entire planning process. I cannot recommend this venue and the staff enough!

Our wedding was visually beautiful, but the officiant hired through them did not read what we had talked about (despite pointing out the changes and sending an updated copy months prior) and the bartender was complaining that the drinks were "difficult" according to multiple guests.I pointed these issues out to Christina, the day of coordinator, and what she had to say was "Sorry you feel that way" and talked about trying to "appease me".Your staff being rude and vendor not doing/saying what was agreed upon isn't a feeling, it's lack of attention and professionalism.When I finally went up to the bar to get my first drink from this bartender, the first thing she said to me was "someone said I was complaining and I wasn't" snappily. That would have been easier to believe had she not had such a ridiculously rude tone with me.The photographer (Carl), DJ Steve, florist (Dottie), and the banquet hostess, Willow, were AMAZING though.The manager, Jeremy, called after I posted reviews to apologize and try to offer more excuses on behalf of the officiant, coordinator, and bartender, as well as refunding the cost of the ceremony. The most he can do at this point.Would I recommend this venue? No...but I would highly recommend some of their vendors.Update: I was told by Carrie K that the Regional Manager, Kali, would be reaching out...that never happened, and when I mentioned it, I was told to contact her myself. The poor communication and lack of accountability runs all the way up the Wedgewood ladder. Book elsewhere.

Was here as a guest for a friends wedding, I normally wouldn't feel compelled to write a review for something, let alone something where I was a mere spectator.But...The entire team, the venue, the atmosphere, food, decorations, etc. Everything about it was amazing.Don't know how all the details came together, but it was immaculate. I would have no reservations about using this venue in the future for myself or recommending it to others.Seriously impressed!
