Reviews
I can't say enough good things about Holman. I've been to two weddings at Holman Ranch. I attended the first wedding by myself as a guest. Attending a wedding by yourself, when you don't know anyone but the bride, can be dreadful, but I had such a wonderful time at Holman. I was able to explore the interiors of the ranch: the stately main room, the lovely courtyard, the views from the lawns. I had a wonderful time just relaxing and soaking up the romantic environment and chatting with all the other guests doing the same.
My experience as a guest there was so perfect, I knew I wanted to have my wedding there. And last year, I did. My husband fell in love with the venue at first sight. Being from the peninsula area, we worried that our guests wouldn't dislike having to drive down to Carmel Valley, but knew they'd forget all that as soon as they arrived. It's just such a perfect setting. Both the scenery indoors and outdoors hold so much appeal, just being there is entertaining enough.
As for putting on a wedding (I had both my ceremony and reception here), it went flawlessly. Hunter, the events coordinator, was always responsive, always cheerful, always helpful when it came to answering my many questions. The service she and her staff gave on the big day couldn't have been more effective, accommodating or efficient and was always friendly. Holman Ranch, along with my caterer (Bird of Paradise, whom I highly recommend) created a day that actually exceeded my expectations (and what bride doesn't have HIGH expectations for her wedding day?)
Holman Ranch is a diamond above a hill. A place that each time you go to see it, it takes your breath away. A place that everytime someone asks you where you were married, you grin ear to ear and say "Holman Ranch". My husband and I looked high and low to find a place to accomodate our country style wedding and a place to accomodate our budget. It did it all for us. The Holman staff are ones that become your friends. They are friendly and detailed. They work with you and listen to everything you need or want. Anyone who gets married here, will have a lifetime of memories and everyone will be a little green with envy.
