The Sesnon House is the perfect wedding venue! Our wedding was so beautiful and beyond our expectations. The staff are such warm and wonderful people. The venue comes with a wedding planner who knows the ins and outs so well. The culinary school with chef Jeremy provided great service and delicious food. We truly feel this venue was everything we ever wanted and it is very affordable especially when compared to other venues in the area. 10/10 recommend this for your wedding or event. They easily accommodated our party of 80 and had plenty of space for more.

Our wedding reception at the Sesnon House was a beyond wonderful event. The beautiful setting and location, the incredible food - from hors d'oeuvres to the dinner itself served family style - led by Chef Andrea and her terrific student team as well as Chef Andrea's patient efforts in effecting our linen and silverware selections, and all this so very well-coordinated by Chrissy and Melissa whose day of the event management was amazing. An especially appreciated excellence was how they worked with us on the schedule, e.g., they explained we were about to run long on hors d'oeuvres time, asking if we wanted to extend that time; we declined and moved onto the next step (speeches) as originally scheduled. Then when our dinner was about to run long (because we were table hopping more slowly than envisioned), they again asked and this time we asked for an extension. That efficient ease in which they communicated was great, helping the reception go so well. We had a slideshow continuously playing photos we wanted to share with guests next to our PhotoBooth. Chrissy and Melissa coordinated so well with our terrific DJ, (JJ from Alan Waltz Entertainment,) too. An unplanned good time was watching the kids playing on the grass. A reality of being on campus meant no hard alcohol, i.e., only beer, wine and champagne. That was not only fine, but our predominantly wine drinking guests clearly had a fun time. Lots of dancing on the foyer with the bar on the terrace worked out well logistically, too. And we cannot say enough about how delicious Chef Andrea and her students' food was. And the students took such delight when our guests and we would compliment (unsolicited) them on the food - especially the incredible chicken in a tender sauce that was perfectly prepared. Vegetarian pasta and seasonal vegetables were so delicious, too. Chef Andrea also provided a terrific photographer recommendation - Leslie - who did a tremendous job. That the weather even cooperated epitomized how special the day was. And finally wanted to note how simply very nice Chrissy, Melissa and Chef Andrea all were, especially the day of our reception making for such a wonderful wedding present. To us, they clearly enjoy what they do and excel at it! Thank you all.

Historic venue in Santa Cruz. Well suited for events of up to 150 people. The lawn area behind the house as well as the historic interior rooms are well kept. And the catering and staff are extremely talented.

The staff was professional and good making sure everyone was passed the appetizers. And the appetizers were good : little stuffed perfectly cookedpotatoes, cornbread with a fruit jam on top, stuffed mushrooms, onion tart and really good bread pudding! A beautiful house with lovely grounds.

The students who do the catering are fabulous - we keep getting compliments about how incredible the food was. The coordinator, Kristen, is very responsive and organized, and she worked very hard to keep our wedding on-track and flowing. Highly recommend Sesnon House for your wedding.
