From the reviews
Had our magical wedding weekend here in late July 2022. Such a wonderful, rustic venue you get all to yourself for the weekend. Took advantage of the whole property with photo shoot opps on the bluff, bridal party (and next day after-party BBQ) in the 6-bedroom gorgeous house on site, ceremony on the hill, cocktail…
I’ve had the pleasure of providing services - DJ, lighting, and photobooth- at Cuffey’s Cove many times. The view and venue never cease to amaze. Even in heavy, thick fog, the view is striking.
Cuffey's Cove is the BEST wedding venue. It's beautiful and you get to have the place for the whole weekend. Glamping if you want and scenic ceremony site. You at least need to check it out even if you don't like barns.
Getting married at Cuffey's Cove Ranch
Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see the ceremony spot at the exact time of day you'd say your vows — a west-facing beach glows at sunset but bakes at noon, and you'll want to feel the wind, watch where the sun sits, and walk the path your guests take across the sand. Second, bring your real questions: the weather backup (where does the ceremony move if it rains or the wind kicks up?), who pulls the beach permit, the sound-ordinance curfew, the catering and bar policy, and exactly what's included — chairs, setup, and teardown on sand are where quotes quietly diverge. Peak beach dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
