ProSound DJs, Alex Grammatico - photo by, Shadowcatcher Imagery

In these hard economic times, cutting back on wedding expenses wherever possible may be a necessity.  But if there is a wedding vendor that you need to make sure is an experienced professional, it’s your DJ.  He or she is the lifeline of your reception and the master of ceremonies.  Not only is it up to him to produce the heartfelt and entertaining customized soundtrack for your wedding and reception, but just as importantly it is his responsibility to make sure your entire event runs smoothly and on time.  It may sound and look easy, but it is an acquired skill. 

At Los Willows, we have seen hundreds of DJ’s and have accepted only a few to be on our preferred vendor list to ensure your party goes the way you have dreamed it will.  Exercise caution about taking a chance on a family member or unknown.  Take a look at what can happen when you select an amateur DJ:      http://www.orlandobrides.com/localpro/the-1-reason-why-to-hire-trained-professionals.htm

Los Willows recommends only the best proven professionals to ensure your wedding goes exactly as you desire, not missing your grand entrance as Mr. and Mrs, your first dance, bouquet toss, cake cutting, or all the very special speeches and toasts honoring you, the bride and groom, as well as your cherished friends and family.

"Charlie Crane"

A long time resident of Los Willows, Charlie loves a good wedding!   He’s a bit shy and prefers to watch the wedding from a slight distance but he tries not to miss a single one!   Charlie even wears his appropriate “wedding white” feathers for this special occasion. 

We invite you to come take a tour of beautiful Los Willows and visit Charlie.  You will usually find Charlie around our spring-fed lake that is loaded with lots of his favorite fish, including bass, catfish, and bluegill.

Book your wedding to take place in December 2010 – February 2011 and receive a $295 value dramatic Lighting Package.

Besides your music, the lighting at your reception establishes the mood and creates an emotional ambience as much or more than any other detail element, which places special lighting packages among our most popular wedding enhancements.  

And a winter wedding in sunny San Diego, California is not your typical winter wedding!  With an average temperature of 72 degrees and rain days almost non-existent, there is absolutely no reason to not get married on a warm, sunny California “winter” day. ..and we mean any winter day, not just at the holidays.

Even with such consistently dependable magnificent weather, Los Willows has inclement weather contingency back-up plans and locations on our private 44-acre wedding and reception estate flawlessly ensured. When the winter evenings do cool down after a gloriously sunny winter day, we warm our reception pavilion to an inviting and cozy ‘comfort zone’ temperature.

We’ve thought of everything…it’s a no brainer!

You are a bride who knows what she wants…a meaningful day focused on you and your groom rather than on all the details of a large wedding extravaganza. You desire something easy and fuss free. You would love nothing more than to show up and relax with the reassurance that everything will fall magically into place. And you want it all in a breathtakingly gorgeous setting.

We can make that happen! It’s what we do best!

Imagine your wedding day on your own 44-acre private luxurious estate. Celebrate your day with all the formal amenities of a five star resort but in complete and intimate privacy. On your most special of days, the staff of Los Willows is devoted exclusively to you and your wedding party. At Los Willows, we make it our dedicated mission for you to arrive on your wedding day without a care in the world beyond being in love and gazing into your beloved’s eyes while exchanging your vows. Our talented wedding planner makes sure your day is how you want it to be, and our supportive wedding coordinator guides you through every special moment with ease and grace.

For your convenience, we’ve thought of everything! It’s all here on our private estate: the variety of wedding locations and intimate reception areas, the onsite salon for hair & makeup to ensure you are the most beautiful bride ever without the worry of mussing your hair in-transit from an off premises salon. Our spa is also at your disposal for you to indulge in a relaxing massage or facial. And, available to you and your bridal party is our very private and peaceful European-style Inn, welcoming you and your guests to share those very special days and nights beginning your new life together. We have created a perfect wedding utopia meticulously appointed to answer all your onsite wedding day needs from start to finish.

The most challenging decision you face? How will you ever choose between the spectacular settings on our grounds at which to marry?

Do you have your heart set on the tradition of our elegantly draped gazebo? Or would you prefer the romance of exchanging your vows overlooking our natural spring-fed lake with a backdrop of deep blue ripples framed by vibrant multi-hued blooms? Perhaps you would cherish the more intimate jasmine covered lakeside arch tucked along a pathway hugging the serene water’s edge. Maybe the charm of our boat house setting at the far end of the lake whisks your imagination off to far away destinations. Choose the inviting warmth of a hearthside wedding beside our cozy outdoor fireplace on a cool fall or winter’s evening, or bring out the barefooteed flowerchild in you as you marry in our natural meadow setting. Though what could be more romantic than gliding across our lake while uniting onboard our silent Los Willows boat? And not to be missed, just up the hill is our exotic 60-foot cascading waterfall at the heart of our Inn & Spa, spectacularly surrounded by hillside vineyards and views that go on forever….and speaking of the vineyard, your ceremony can take place among the grapes on our vineyard patio.

No matter what location you choose for your ceremony or reception, each intimate setting offers stunning photo opportunities that will give you tangible memories to last a lifetime.

We have designed a ‘Ceremony Only’ package option in addition to our very inclusive ‘Los Willows Signature’ wedding  and reception package, catering especially to the bride and groom desiring a small, intimate wedding and reception. Within our ‘Signature’ package, we offer a variety of options allowing you to customize your celebration and make all your decisions simply and easily.

An online article by Event Solutions last week cites a trend that reflects an “11% increase in outdoor events this year.”  In particular, they report a dramatic increase in outdoor tented events this season.

“Outdoor weddings are HUGE right now,” says Nico Cervantes of NICO Designs.  “Wedding planners and suppliers are looking for beautiful, organic, natural, fun, and affordable.”

And that is quintessentially Los Willows!

With colorful flowering grounds lovingly maintained year round in our mild Southern California climate, we offer several locations throughout our lush green 44 acres at which to hold your outdoor wedding ceremony.  The favored choice is at our romantically draped lakeside gazebo, with outdoor seating for up to 250 guests.  And with Los Willows receptions held in our permanent tented reception pavilion, featuring panels that can open up to the garden setting, you can have the feel of an outdoor reception with all the indoor advantages, such as climate control and spectacular lighting.

And rain…no problem! (Rain?  What rain?  Almost never happens here…seriously!  But if it does…we instantly move your ceremony into our lavishly draped tented pavilion.)

Los Willows…a beautiful outdoor garden ceremony setting with all the reception conveniences of indoor luxury comforts…the best of both worlds!

Our beautiful new mahogany chiavari chairs have arrived. ..and they are gorgeous!

You can always go with the linen chair covers and colored sashes if that’s your thing, but, at Los Willows, you have choices…that’s our thing…giving you options so you can customize your wedding the way you want to. 

Weddings and events are all we do, so paying attention to every detail is something we not only have time to do, it’s our priority….and providing the beautiful chiavari chairs that brides ask for is just one more way we are always thinking of you…our brides.

Please contact us for packages and pricing:

Okay, here’s the deal…

…because of the current economy, we’ve been looking at our competition and listening to our clientel in order to determine the best way to provide a sensibly priced wedding to our brides and grooms.

What did we learn? Just do the math…

We discovered how unhappy people are when they see a low ‘per person’ rate published on our competitors’ websites, only to discover that there is a hefty site fee on top of that, which substantially inflates the overall cost.  They feel as if they’ve been fooled.

So what’s the answer?  It’s simple and honest:

Provide a reasonable ‘per person’ package price without a site fee.  And that’s it!

We’re happy, our brides are happy, and everybody wins!

The use of one of our beautiful salons is included in your wedding package.  That’s right, “included”!  Our salons are just two of many features that are special at Los Willows, making us one of the most desirable wedding locations at which to marry in San Diego County.

Yes you can!

In an economy that has many brides downsizing their guest lists as a first order of budget cutting for their weddings, we at Los Willows recognize this trend and are doing all we can to make your big wedding dreams come true without having to slash your guest list and miss out on having loved ones share your day.

We invite you to call or meet with our wonderful wedding planner, Liza, and learn about the many creative ways we will help you have that large wedding you’ve always wanted, surrounded by all the family and friends with whom you wish to celebrate your one and only day…without compromising your dreams.

…well, maybe not in the style you’d like to.

You may not realize that many wedding sites do not have a full liquor license, meaning they can only serve beer and wine (or less!) at your wedding reception.  If ’mixing it up’ with your drinks is an important social consideration to you as a part of your wedding celebration, or just plain adds to the festivity, make sure you inquire upfront about a wedding venue’s bar services…not to mention understanding exactly what you are paying for.

At  Los Willows, we offer an extensive range of bar packages, from full bar services to beer and wine, to featured signature and boutique drinks, or even just a soft bar.  Your bar can be ‘Hosted’ or ‘No Host,’ or a combination of the two (ask us how!).   We make it easy for you to customize your bar package to your own personal needs, desires, and budget without limiting your imagination.

Weddings and events are all we do…and we do them right…for you!

Have you ever considered a signature drink station at your wedding reception bar? 

With the current popularity of

Apple Martinis, Mojitos, Bellinis, novelty Margaritas, and Lemon Drops,

Los Willows receives regular requests for specialty drink bar features from brides and grooms to give their weddings that little extra spicy and fun touch.

 Another captivating trend we are catering to more and more by special request is ice sculpture “drink luges,” which feature a specialty drink delivery system “luging” through the center of a custom ice scuplture, chilling it on its way to a dramatic downward spouting presentation into an awaiting Appletini glass…or with another irresistable specialty drink choice of the day.

Los Willows loves providing these special personalized touches that turn an already special wedding into an enchanting memory! 

For details, contact Liza Isacsson, Wedding Planner
