NStier's reviews

We planned our September 2007 wedding at Bear Flag Farm and our guests are still gushing over what an amazing affair it was - and it truly was amazing. From the hospitality of the owners (Kevin and Tina) to the smell of the lavender fields, it was more than we could have asked for. We had a warm, beautiful day and the wedding was everything I'd always pictured.

From the moment we started working with Tina, every detail was taken care of. As the owner, Tina knows the farm better than anyone and offered incredible advice and suggestions. Once I began talking to her about the vision I had for the day, she was able to help me focus and flawlessly execute.

My husband is from Boston, so we had a large number of our guests coming from the East Coast. Davis was the perfect location to gather everyone for a wedding weekend. Sacramento airport is about a 20 minute drive from downtown - very convenient. Guests found Davis so charming and the leisurely pace of the small town provided the perfect weekend retreat for our guests. Tina helped us decide on hotels and arrange for shuttles to transport guests to and from the farm.

Getting ready on the farm was one of my favorite aspects of the weekend. As some of the other reviews mention, the cottage on site is adorable and has every amenity a bride could ask for. A refrigerator for nibbles and champagne, a hair salon to get ready and a beautiful room for dressing and taking bridal party photos. It was such a fun day in the cottage with my family and bridal party.

When guests arrived on the farm, every detail was taken care of and the farm looked amazing. Stepping on the farm, you are suddenly transported to a little bit of wine country in Davis. We were married in a lavender field that smelled so amazing. Cocktail hour took us to the vineyard lawn and our reception was held in a grassy bowl under the shade of beautiful sycamore trees. Tina and her staff helped manage our vendors and took fantastic care of our guests.

From start to finish, this was the perfect experience. A big thank you to Tina and Kevin for opening up their home to all of us who have been lucky enough to be married there. It's an experience none of us will soon forget.
