I do Venues ~ Costanoa ~ Sneak Preview

Photography by: Zoom Photography

About the venue

As the "Wedding Venue Experts" I'd like to think we are pretty plugged in to the local area, so it caught us by surprise when we received a submission for a venue we have never worked with. This charming and quaint venue definitely took us by surprise, and every time we receive a wedding from Laurie Levenfeld of Zoom Photography we just know we have a treat in store for us. Laurie is one of the most talented photographers I know. Her effervescent personality along with her extreme talent are amazing, so we knew that this wedding would be special.

Costanoa is more than a lodge or a retreat center - it is a piece of complete tranquility nestled into the base of the Santa Cruz mountains. The facility is complete unique - unlike anything we have ever seen. The coastal retreat center has four different venues for use for wedding and celebrations. You can take you walk down an isle that is either lined with giant redwood trees or possibly have the sun descend into the pacific against the backdrop of crashing waves - I'm glad I am not the one who has to choose!
