Ventura Country Club

Ventura Country Club was a beautiful venue for our wedding and reception. Dan, the clubhouse manager, was easy to work with and always willing to answer all my questions and help me figure out the details as a busy bride. We were able to relax and enjoy our wedding day, and Dan and the staff there was a wonderful help with setting up, running the event, and meeting our guests needs. The chef was willing to make special plates to meet food allergy needs of my guests and all the food was delicious. The clubhouse was willing to work with me and allowed my bridal party to arrive early to set up, dress, and take pictures before the ceremony without an added cost onto the initial five hour rental fee for the ceremony and reception. We could not have imagined a more perfect wedding day, and our family and guests all agree that Ventura Country Club was a wonderful choice for our ceremony and reception.

This was the worst place to have a event. I helped my brother plan his wedding here. I was with them at every meeting. Well lets just say this place ruined their wedding. The man who runs it (DAN) promises the world but you never see him the entire event. He will tell you that he will be there every step of the way and then will lie to your face when in front of his employees. Oh My his employees THE WORST they made our guest feel terrible. After the wedding all of my family were telling me that the were so rude to them. I would ask them were is Dan? and they would not help me! In the middle of asking them they would walk away like I was not talking. So when I would go look for him my self he was setting next door at the bar with the people having a grand ol time! The guest said that when they walked in nobody would help them on where to go and Dan told us he and staff would be standing there for our guest. The one that really makes me mad. We had rehearsal the night before and I spoke to Dan and showed him where everything was for the tables because that is what he told us to do. He said "ok don't worry about it I got it" I was telling him that the aisle runner was right here his word where " It might fly away because it is light but don't worry I will figure something out for you" I said ok thank you. Do you know the day of the wedding 2 mins before the bride walked out no runner!!!!! Our guest had to help us and put it out the photographer helped them. How sad is that and when I asked to see him nobody new where he was. I was told by these two old lady they called severs that he was off smoking somewhere. Also make sure you bring your contract with you to the event! If for some reason after this you book with them, because the severs took it upon them selfs to tell the DJ to stop a 1/2 hour early. When I said to them no we paid for 5 hours not 4 and 1/2. The server then again walks away from me went in the back pulled the contract and read it they new they were wrong. No apology!!!! SO do not even waist your money!

Rough up until the wedding. The club house director is a bit aloof and you have to follow up with him constantly. However, day of wedding everything was awesome! Great food, great staff, definitely great value for the price.

The food was alright. I should have asked for a taste testing to see if it was even an option. I got many compliments on the food - but I wish I had gone with a different option.

Pretty good. I would recommend them.

Excellent Venue and affordable. If you have big drinkers in your party- do a consumption bar, and set the limit low. Most of my guests enjoyed the bar at the club house- we only ended up spending around 400$ on alchol. Also the venue offers a champagine punch which helped save alot of money for the champaigne toast. No everyone likes champaign. Otherwise, the venue was absoulelty amazing and many beautiful places to take pictures.

Ventura was beautiful and the food was great, but the manager of the ballroom is not very friendly or easy to work with. I never had any problems and everything was perfect, but I always felt bad for asking for things (including basic information).

The place wasn't bad, but I wish I'd been able to find somewhere else. The lighting wasn't very good for photography but the place was rather pretty.Dan was a bit stiff on some things but very easy to work with on others. He was a nice guy though.You use their caterer, so I didn't have to find anyone else, but some of the potions were limited. The food was really good though and I received many compliments about it.

Not too shabby, though I wish things had gone a bit smoother. The lighting wasn't that great for photography, but overall it looked pretty good.

They weren't bad. If I had it to do all over again, I wouldn't choose them...but MAINLY because the lighting just wasn't very good for pictures, so even though I had a stellar photographer...the pics of the weeding aren't that great! The food was bad but I wish I had picked different options. I think I should have asked for taste samples, etc...Dan wasn't bad to deal with either. Pretty nice guy. He did a good job with what I gave him!
