The Nest
At the heart of our venue is the Nest: renovated with modernist aesthetics represented by high steel beams, floor to ceiling glass windows in the front and rear, and clear paneled garage doors that open up to a 4,000 square ft courtyard on the west side. Ample string lights illuminate the Nest throughout.
Ceremony Sites
We offer several indoor/outdoor ceremony sites with breathtaking, panoramic views of the property that are perfect for your backdrop. Our goal is to provide multiple, flexible options that cater to your individual style and unique experience. We are here to help make your vision of your special day a reality.
Western Saloon
Adjacent to the the Nest is the rustic Western Saloon. Built as a replica of the Dry Bean Saloon from the popular TV show, Lonesome Dove, this whimsical structure looks like something out of a Hollywood movie set–blending history with modern day amenities that will be fun for any visitor.
