Many wedding ceremonies have taken place on the redwood deck built around the Old Apple Tree in the yard of the Homestead House.  Up to 125 guests can be seated on white garden chairs on the lawn offering them a panoramic view of the South Warner Mountains and the lush green grasslands of Jess Valley as they await the start of your wedding ceremony.  A small arched foot bridge is built over a narrow stream to span two sides of lawn.  In many ceremonies, the bride is escorted across the bridge to her awaiting groom and the exchange of vows takes place in the shade of the Old Apple Tree.  Following the ceremony, your reception dinner and dance can take place on the lawn and deck area.

Your wedding ceremony may take place on the gazebo and lawn on the west side of Cantrall House.  The red gazebo with white trim will set the stage for your ceremony as up to 200 of your family and friends share in your special day while looking out over the beautiful Warner Mountain Range that borders Jess Valley.  The gazebo is also situated beside the bank of a narrow stream.  Following the ceremony, your reception dinner will be held on the south lawn and your dance will take place on the grass next to the gazebo.  

Your wedding ceremony can also take place in flower garden of Cantrall House known as Elsie’s Garden which has breathtaking views of the entire expanse of Jess Valley and the surrounding South Warner Mountain Range.  There are many decorating possibilities for this space and it can easily accommodate up to 250 seated guests.  The reception dinner following your ceremony will move to the adjoining lawn.  When you’re ready to dance, your D.J. or band will have a prime location on the gazebo.
