Weddings & Events
“Our Celebration Boulevard wedding planning team had our first wedding at the Julia Morgan last weekend. I worked with the Asst. Estate Manager Jenny for nearly a year. There are a number of complexities with vehicle space and vendor deliveries at this stunning historic property. Jenny was patient as we worked through everything together. She accommodated special requests, gave tips on flow specific to the property, and provided a top notch day-of team to handle so many details. Her team ran efficiently, was flexible with some bumps, and kept great humor throughout. I can’t recommend this property more. 10 out of 10!”

“Incredible event staff!!!!!”

“Julia Morgan Redwood Grove is one of the best wedding venues in Humboldt County and one of my favorite venues in Northern California. Located just off of the storied Avenue of the Giants in Garberville, California, this carefully manicured property is worth the winding drive from the Bay.”
— Katie D.
“If you want a wedding in Humboldt County that is not a barn, this is the place. The architecture and setting are unmatched. We could not have enjoyed the space more.”
— Nickolos C.

— Shaelene
“This venue is absolutely breathtaking and truly one of the most stunning wedding venues in Humboldt County. We loved the versatility of the layout, which gave us several gorgeous ceremony location options to choose from.
The grounds are maintained to the highest standard, and our guests were in awe of all the thoughtful details throughout the property. We had the time of our lives and were treated so thoughtfully by the venue hosts, who even planned a special moment for us during cocktail hour while our guests mingled.
The location is perfect—just a short walk from the historic Benbow Inn, making it incredibly convenient for guests. We highly recommend this beautiful venue to anyone planning their wedding day!”

“When you plan a visit to a new area, the first thing is to find accommodations. We spent months researching up and down the area near the Avenue of the Giants and decided on the Benbow Inn.
Just before we pulled the trigger, we saw Julia Morgan Redwood Grove. I looked at it because of the 2-hour tour as something to do. It's not heavily advertised as having rental units available, so it didn't jump out as a place to stay.
Once I realized they had two units for rent, I looked into it more and discovered how nice it is. Well, long story short — look no further! This is a once-in-a-lifetime place to stay.
The cottage has everything you need. The beds are top notch. The heating/A/C is perfect.
What makes it truly over the top is the grounds. Just look at the wedding pictures online — pictures do not do it justice. Just like any other beautiful place, pictures cannot match what you're looking at.
Beautiful view of the river. Landscaping is just perfect.
In addition to the great place, the people that run this place are great! Which makes it even better. Easy to communicate with — nice people overall.
So, to close this review out — look no more! This is it!
Thank you!”
