Unforgettable Intimate Wedding

It's only been a week since we got married at Hastings House Garden and we just had to write this review right away so we can share our amazing experience.

We were looking for an intimate venue for our wedding, and once we found this very nice and lovely place by the Pacific Ocean, we both knew this was the one. Our wedding party was less than 20 consisting of our dearest relatives and we got nothing but compliments about our choice of venue. The garden is very beautiful and well taken care of by Linda and her husband Richard. It doesn't look big at first when you first enter, but the garden keeps on going when you follow the little pathways to discover other lovely areas, which are great for post-ceremony pictures.

We highly recommend Hastings House. Linda will take care of you each and every step of the way. She is very accommodating and understanding and will do her best to give you the wedding of a lifetime.

Absolutely magical venue!

Linda is so wonderful to work with! From booking our ceremony date to helping us with details and local vendors, the experience was seamless. We hired Linda as our photographer as well, she did an outstanding job capturing all the love from the day! She is incredibly artistic and has an eye for what looks best. She gave us detailed instructions while taking our pictures which was so helpful! It was lightly raining during our ceremony; Linda and her assistant helped us to make the best of the situation and wiped down chairs and all surfaces to make the experience comfortable for everyone. I can’t recommend Hastings House enough, most magical location and scenery, it was the perfect day!!!

Perfect Garden Wedding

This year has been a crazy time for planning a wedding. My husband and I are having an international wedding in September but unfortunately our older family members can't make the wedding. We decided we wanted to do a small intimate civil ceremony for just our family. The Hasting House & Gardens were close enough to my family and also the perfect romantic lil spot that we were looking for. Linda, is the owner and coordinator and was absolutely lovely to work with. She made everything incredibly easy, she was organized and most importantly she's very professional. Since Im in the middle of planning a large international wedding I didn't have a ton time to dedicate to this ceremony. We had a intro call with her and then everything else she handled. The gardens themselves are stunning. The whole family felt like it was incredibly special. Linda also coordinated a musician, an officiant and all the setup. Anyone looking for an intimate venue for their ceremony should absolutely looking into the Hasting House & Gardens.

The Hastings House is located down the street from The Douglas Beach House right on Miramar Beach in Half Moon Bay. Have your wedding in the absolutely beautiful coastal garden at the Hastings House and literally you and your guests walk a few steps down the ocean front road (a wonderful stroll in itself) to The Douglas Beach House (or of course choose your reception at another incredible location on the coast.) Linda and Richard run the Hastings House and you could not ask for a better team. Linda is experienced, extremely detailed, organized and a wonderful person who will attend to your every detail. Her husband Richard is a very well known guitarist who may be available for your wedding as well. Linda is also a fabulous photographer. If you are looking for a garden setting, this is the place!

I've worked at Hastings House as an officiant for at least 30 weddings and it's one of my favorite locations to work with. Their garden is beautiful and well maintained; their service to bridal couples is personalized and professional; their location across from the Pacific Ocean makes for a great backdrop for the ceremony.

As a wedding photographer for 30 years, I have covered many venues in the Bay Area, most particularly the Half Moon Bay Coastside. Without a doubt, at the top of my list is Hastings House. I know all the secret corners of the garden and always come away with unique and beautiful images! The garden is magnificent, all planned by Linda, who does a fantastic job of making it thrive. Her magic and colorful garden, along with the ocean in front of Hastings House (yes - they have it all) provides the ideal setting for weddings. To go along with the beautiful scenery, Linda's accomplished husband, Richard Patterson will play his guitar for you, perfect accompaniment music for your special day. Richard has entertained audiences around world and is an absolute master. I'm always pleased with the photos that I shoot at Hastings House; when the venue looks that good, so do I.
