From the reviews
I had my DREAM wedding here. They were kind, helpful, and accommodating. The view alone is beyond anything that photos can do justice. If you are considering Wind & Sea as a wedding venue, just do it. You will not regret it.
What an incredible wedding venue! Not only are the views stunning, the property is beautifully maintained and allows the couple and some guests to stay onsite. The venue does SO MUCH heavy lifting in terms of ambiance and decor. The interior, grounds, and ceremony space are all beautiful.
Filming Weddings at Wind & Sea Estate in Big Sur is always a dream! This private oceanfront property offers breathtaking panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean and feels like a hidden gem. The estate is surrounded by lush greenery, pines, and eucalyptus, creating a serene, intimate atmosphere for weddings.
Getting married at Wind and Sea
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.
