If you're looking for a wedding venue in Malibu, Calamigos Ranch in the Santa Monica Mountains is an ideal choice. This wine-country wedding venue is a beautiful place to celebrate. Nature lovers adore the rustic surroundings, dreamy waterfalls and wide-open spaces. The ranch owners have created a unique destination that is romantic, comfortable and inspiring all at the same time.
The ranch is surrounded by gorgeous nature and beautiful scenery, and it's just far enough from the city to feel like you're escaping. Like many other wedding venues in Malibu, Calamigos Ranch offers outdoor ceremonies and receptions with amazing views.
However, some important differences between Calamigos Ranch and other wedding venues in Malibu make it stand out as a great option if you want your wedding day to be special while still having all of the amenities needed for a fun party after the ceremony ends.
One of the best things about Calamigos Ranch is that it has plenty of space for all your guests. While you're getting ready in one area, they can be hanging out at another part of the ranch or walking around its beautiful grounds. Even better, the space itself is set up in a way that makes it easy for everyone to move around and mingle together.

It's also possible to get married at multiple different sites on this property. The Birchwood Room is an outdoor area that can hold up to 140 guests. Ancient weeping willows, a waterfall and soft sunlight filtering through the trees make it a dreamy place to say "I do." The Redwood Room is a more open outdoor space with redwood, oak and eucalyptus trees swaying in the breeze. Next to a historic lodge, it is also perfect for big weddings. The Oak Room is indoors with grand glass walls giving the illusion of being outdoors. The gorgeous light that flows through the glass at sunset and the views of the waterfall seal the deal for many couples. For something truly different, the Pavilions at North Point offers an elevated stage for the couple and bridal party to stand on with a massive oak tree as the backdrop. The wow factor is repeated at the reception, with a giant Ferris wheel being a focal point of the party. As a Malibu wedding photographer, if I had to choose one location to shoot a ceremony, it would be hard to choose. I can only imagine how much debate couples must have when it comes to deciding where on the Calamigos Ranch to get married.
