We found this venue after a quick Google search, and we ended up loving it! The venue itself is rustic and beautiful with all of the succulents. The company was good to work with and answered all of our questions! There were 2 issues I had working with them, but overall they were easy to work with. We worked with a different person for each step of the planning process. I had a different consultant for my first call, in person consult, and day of planner (who was absolutely amazing!). Much of the time when we emailed questions, they were answered by different people within the company and I would receive multiple replies for the same question. I would’ve really liked to have just one contact instead of bouncing between people. My second problem is that it would be days before I would get a reply from them, and much of the communication was behind of the schedule we were initially given. I received an email for our final payment with specific instructions a week late on the day of the rehearsal…which was also when the payment was due. Luckily we were able to scrape it together just in time. All in all, they were great, put together a wonderful wedding day and took good care of us.

Bryce, My wedding day was perfect and amazing and I feel so blessed to have chosen Tijeras Creek for our October wedding this year. The day of the wedding was amazing. Everything ran smoothly and we know a large part of this was because of you and your hard work behind the scenes. You had promised our friends and family who needed help to get down to the ceremony would receive VIP treatment, and sure enough, they did! They all commented about the kindness and friendliness of the staff who escorted them in the carts. Please thank your staff for their wonderful attitudes and meeting the needs (and wants) of all the guests. I truly appreciate all you have done! It has been almost two months and we are still talking about the wonderful day. There is a sparkle in my eye when I talk about the magic of that day. It truly was a fairytale wedding and it was amazing. My husband said it was the best day ever!

Awarded Best of Zola
Our wedding day could not have been more perfect, thanks to Coyote Hills being such an amazing venue and their staff for their excellent service including Hannah Schade as our point person. The ceremony space turned out as gorgeously as hoped with the waterfall backdrop, as well as the draping and chandeliers by their contracted vendor Glam Event Stylist that just elevated the look of it all. The reception space was truly everything we needed and offered something for everyone, whether dancing or enjoying the photo booth and dessert area or even relaxing in the bar area or terrace. Our guests absolutely loved the food, and we are still getting so many compliments from friends and family about it. Everything seemed to run seamlessly, and the service from staff was very much on point. My husband and I felt attended to during dinner, and we certainly had our fill of the food thankfully. We also greatly appreciated the attention and promptness of replies to emails from the start to the days leading up to the event. We cannot express enough how grateful we are to have had our very special occasion at Coyote Hills, and we hope to book them again for future events (baby shower? :))

David L Baker Memorial Golf Center

5.0

Fountain Valley, CA
  • Up to 200 guests
  • Raw space
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $1,498

David L Baker is located in the heart of Fountain Valley and Mile Square Park. We are a raw space that permits for any outside caterer to be brought in while using our bartenders and bar packages if bar services are desired. Our venue rental is inclusive of tables, chairs and floor length linen for both our Ceremony as well as Banquet Room. Both spaces provide a natural and neutral setting complimenting any style or décor brought into the venue.

Definitely check out David L Baker for your reception if you're ballin' on a budget. They were able to fit our budget well within reason and had all the amenities that my, now, wife was looking for. They were great at communicating with us throughout and helped us plan this stressful, but joyous(!) time. Amber gave us the first walkthrough and Julia helped us in more detail afterwards. Julia did a great job coordinating with our wedding coordinator. IF anything terrible happened during the wedding... I definitely never found out! So good job to both of them I guess! Logistically, there's plenty of parking, plenty of wiggle room, multiple bathrooms, bar... What more does a reception need? Definitely give them a look!

We got married at meadowlark on November 11 this year and all we have to say is WOW! The professionalism and assistance by the staff from the get go was incredible. And they were so helpful every step of the way. Amber was amazing in helping with the booking by answering any and all questions and requests for quotes for different combinations of services and packages for the day off. Julia was especially patient and helpful through all of my questions and took her time to answer them all, silly or serious. She was super knowledgeable and detailed during our final walk throughs. The day of our wedding, she was calm, cool and collected which was so helpful to a bride and groom in a bundle of nerves. She helped us to make our dream wedding come true and we cannot thank her enough. The rest of the staff at the course were all extremely kind and helpful. A special thanks to the assistant GM, Jordan and the head chef, Rochelle. Not only was the staff great but the lawn was well manicured and the golf course made for an amazing backdrop for the ceremony. We didn't need a lot of florals or decor. The banquet room and balcony were perfect size and was able to accommodate all our guests and entertainment. The newly redone floors made for the perfect dance floor and the linens were crisp and perfect color. All in all we experienced nothing but excellence from meadowlark and their staff!
