Almond Grove Manor: Historic Charm Among the Central Valley Orchards

It's a great story to share with your guests over cocktails.

Where Your Day Comes Together

Here's how the day flows, from the first look at the aisle to the final song.

In Front of the Manor - Ceremony

Say your vows with the 1912 manor behind you and your guests in front of you. More than a century of history makes for a backdrop no florist can recreate.

Beside the Manor - Cocktail Hour

Cocktail hour sets up just to the side of the manor with its own bar. Guests can grab a drink and mingle while you slip into the gardens for portraits.

Among The Garden - Reception

An open-air reception on the grounds, where dinner, toasts, and dancing unfold among the gardens and orchards as the sun goes down and the evening lights come up. Prefer a covered space? The event tent is also available.

Get-Ready Suites - Wedding Party

Two get-ready suites give your wedding party a home base before the ceremony, with space to prepare, relax, and take a breath before walking down the aisle.

Wedding Styles That Shine Here

A historic house, formal gardens, and orchards give couples a lot to build on. Here are a few directions that feel right at home at Almond Grove Manor.

Vintage Heirloom

Lean into the manor's 1912 roots with lace, pearls, antique brass, and old family photos displayed near the guest book. Add a string quartet or a jazz singer as a nod to the concerts once held in the formal living room.

Romantic Rose Garden

Let the rose gardens set the palette. Think layered blush, ivory, and deep garnet florals, soft candlelight, and a ceremony beside the fountain as the sun starts to drop.

Orchard Harvest

Bring the almond groves to the table with wood accents, olive branches, and family-style platters. Almond favors and a dessert bar featuring local nuts and fruit make the Central Valley the star of the menu.

Wine Country Elegance

With the Madera Wine Trail right outside, a refined wine country look comes naturally. Pair deep burgundy and sage tones with local wines at the cocktail hour bar and toast with a regional vintage.

Blossom Season

Almond trees bloom in late winter, covering the orchards in white and pale pink. Couples planning an early-year date can borrow that look with airy white florals, sheer fabrics, and soft pastel details.

Big Family Celebration

With room for a large guest list, the estate suits multicultural and multigenerational weddings that bring everyone together. Think a lively reception in the tent, traditional ceremonies and customs, and a dance floor that stays full all night.

Planning Without the Guesswork

Our customizable, all-inclusive packages bring the essentials together in one place, so you aren't stitching together a dozen separate contracts. Your planning team builds the timeline, coordinates the vendors, and fields the last-minute questions, leaving you free to enjoy being engaged.

Wedgewood Weddings has been helping couples since 1986, and that experience shows up in the details you never have to think about.

Make a Weekend of It

Guests traveling in for the wedding will find plenty to fill the rest of their stay:

• Madera Wine Trail: Local tasting rooms run right through the area, perfect for a welcome-day outing.
• Fresno's Tower District: Restaurants and nightlife for the crew that isn't ready to call it a night.
• Fresno Chaffee Zoo: A favorite for guests traveling with kids.
• River Park Shopping: Shopping and dining are about 10 minutes from the venue.
