Sacred Mountain Ranch - Julian, California

Kaitlynn Fisher

We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect venue for our wedding day! From the moment we first toured Sacred Mountain, we knew it was the one. The Sunset Plateau is a gorgeous open space with such an amazing view. The Meadow and Courtyard were perfect cozy spaces for our guests which flowed beautifully as two distinct yet integrated spaces. Sacred Mountain’s preferred vendor list made it very easy for us to select trusted vendors with known experience at our venue. The Sacred Mountain staff was incredibly accommodating, easy to work with throughout the planning process, and made sure every detail was taken care of on our wedding day. If you're looking for a venue that offers natural beauty, cozy vibes, and great service - this is it!

My partner Christina and I have just started our venue search and have been all the map. Coming even just to visit and tour, Sacred mountain is a breathe of fresh air. We're still narrowing down how we want to go about our wedding experience but this place, and staff, have us tempted to a mountain destination wedding.

Shannon led us around the property and let us explore at our own pace. She gives off a wonderful vibe and really helps with envisioning the spaces. We had the pleasure of meeting the owner as well who is kind and was inspirational to goals and beliefs my fiance is trying to follow.

Overall, a lot of love at this destination.

I have been dreaming of this wedding venue for years, and let me tell you, it did not disappoint. We got married here in April 2023 and it was absolutely magical. First of all, the staff are fabulous. Michelle was so easy to work with and made all the details of our day so easy! They were fabulous during the wedding day and made sure all of our guests with mobility limitations were taken care of and driven around in golf carts as needed. The venue IS SO STUNNING. The grass fields were green and there were flowers around the whole property. We loved all the different areas to take photos around the property; especially the secret garden, the pool area, and the sunset plateau. The reception area was set up beautifully and our cocktail hour was also seamless. Having a lot of the decor included (chairs, lanterns, tables, linens, cocktail belly bar tables, the sweetheart table and couch, the couches in the cocktail area, etc.) made planning our day so much easier. They have weddings down to an art and it was so worth it to make our day stress free! We rented the whole property for the weekend and it was so nice to have our immediate family with us both the night before and stuffed the wedding. It spread out the festivities over 3 days and made the whole process even more enjoyable! Highly highly recommend this wedding venue!

Talk about dream venue! I never pictured myself having a wedding until I found Sacred Mountain Julian. I promise you, the photos you see will be exactly what you will see. The venue is so breathtaking - all my guest kept asking how I found the venue and complimenting me on how amazing it is. You have sooo many photo options with the property. Wedding days are hectic and time flies, but when I sit and think about my wedding day, all the beauty pops out. It's a dream at golden hour and it's magical at night. I highly recommend using vendors that know the property and if you're using a photographer or videographer who's never been there - take them to visit to understand how beautiful the property is.

Words and pictures don't do justice to how incredible Sacred Mountain is. Right when you arrive, there's something about the property that evokes a positive, calm energy.

The highlight of our experience was having the venue all to ourselves for the entire weekend. Our immediate family and wedding party stayed onsite with us, extending the celebration and allowing us to have more intimate moments throughout a busy weekend. The onsite housing exceeded our expectations - each building has its own charm, the amenities are high quality, and the team has thought of literally everything you may need.

We loved getting married in May, as the weather was perfect, the sunset was later, and the flowers in the garden were gorgeous.

Our venue coordinator, Michelle, was so helpful throughout the planning process. She answered everything along the way with a quick turnaround time and offered great advice. Our day of venue coordinator, Freedom, was a delight and helped our onsite guests all weekend. We can't wait to stay onsite for future anniversaries. Thank you to the entire Sacred Mountain team for creating such a dreamy wedding venue!

Sacred is an apt name. My wife and I were married at Sacred Mountain on August 20th, 2022. We went with the full mountain package and had the run of the property for the weekend, using it for both our rehearsal dinner as well as the ceremony/reception. Weddings go by so fast and the weekend experience allowed us to celebrate with friends and family and enjoy our big day just a little bit longer. As a couple who didn’t want to have a traditional religious ceremony, but still found it very important to find a location that felt special and spiritual in its own way. Sacred Mountain delivered in spades. The ceremony site on the plateau was magical and felt truly special amongst the many venues we toured. Add to that the incredible accommodations on-site and a multitude of beautiful spaces to gather for all parts of the reception and this place really rounded out to be the full package. Marti and her staff were all wonderful and worked to make sure every detail was perfect for us on the day. From decor to refreshments, they thought of everything. We ended up having rain in the forecast and had to move last minute to tent our dinner on the patio of the Meadow House. The staff helped us every step of the way with the unexpected change and we ended up enjoying the beauty of the tented setup even more. The weather cleared just in time for our ceremony, with the sun peaking out as the bride made her way down the aisle. The beauty of this place cannot be overstated and we will surely return to celebrate future anniversaries now that we know it’s possible to stay on-site as a rental. Julian gave us everything we could have asked for in terms of a unique mini-destination wedding venue and we could not have been happier with the Sacred Mountain experience and everything this wonderful little mountain town had to offer.
